Best Answer

People do not cut off all their hair when they get cancer. Some of the treatments which are used (Chemotherapy for example) can cause their hair to fall out. Like the first answer say it is because of chemotherapy. People cut their hair before it starts to fall out because of treatment. It doesn't look as harsh then and it helps them get to terms with the hair loss.

I think she has two reasons. 1) She cut her hair off because she wants too. 2) She cut all of her hair off because of cancer. So she did. Alot of people say why she cut her hair off so people say because she wants too, wants to be like P!nk, because she sings and dances and she hair keeps on annoying her, and she wants to cut her hair off because it annoys her and her hair goes in her mouth every time she tries to move.


Where do people collect hair to make wigs for cancer children?

The organization that collects hair for cancer patients is called locks of love. You can go into almost any salon and they will know how to cut your hair and send it to locks of love. You'll need at least ten inches of hair to cut off, but by the time you do cut that of, it ends up being another inch off. Normally hair salons put your hair in a ponytail the length of the hair you want to cut off, and then just cut it off. You can then style it. I hope you make a donation!
