Here are some "before" pictures:
If you pull the waves straight, there was about 23 inches of hair on her head from root to tip; not pulled straight, there was about 22 inches of hair.
The long ponytail I'm going to miss!
She was really nervous they were going to cut off too much, so I very carefully measured out 10 inches, placed some elastics and made four ponytails (I'd read that you get the most amount of usuable hair, and have an easier clean up of the ends, if you form multiple ponytails instead of just one big one in the back)
I cut off the first ponytail, and the stylist cut off the other three
WOW!
I think she pretty much lost all of the wave to her hair with this last donation. There is a very minimal wave near her ears, and the underneath portion in the back is slightly wavy, but otherwise, it's quite straight! I'll be curious to see what it does after the next time she washes it! Last time she donated, without the weight of the length of her hair, it got REALLY curly again!
No longer a long wavy ponytail, but now a cute little sassy one instead! She bounced around the house all afternoon feeling it brush against her shoulers. LOL
Here's a side-by-side Before & After photo:

Way to go Miss Emily! I will miss your long hair, but what a fabulous thing you are doing by donating your hair to Locks of Love! You look adorable whether your hair is shorter or longer.
Very nice! Love that new sassy pony tail!
