Students in the cosmetology program at the Mecosta-Osceola Career Center are collecting hair for a great cause.

 

The students say now until February 14th, they will be collecting hair for children with hair loss and donating the hair to Locks of Love, Children with Hair Loss and Maggie's Wigs for Kids. 

 

The students know they are making an impact with this benefit.

 

"We really appreciate taking part in this hair drive because it helps children be more confident in themselves. "There are so many conditions that allow people to lose their hair and sometimes hair is someone's identity so helping these children means a lot." 

 

If you would like to donate your hair, there is a seven inch requirement and it must be dry, braided or banded. For more information, or to donate call 231-796-5805.
