G Spot is proud to be an active participant with Locks Of Love. March through December you can get your hair cut for FREE on Tuesdays and Wednesdays when you donate. Our annual Locks Of Love Hair Drive is held each year on Valentine’s Day. It is a great way to help those in need and get an amazing haircut in the process.








 




 




 




 

Locks Of Love is a non- profit organization devoted to providing financially disadvantaged children suffering from long-term medial hair loss from any diagnosis. Most children helped by Locks Of Love have lost their hair due to a condition called Alopecia Aereata, which has no known cause or cure. They also assist may children suffering from other medical conditions, including hair loss due to chemotherapy. Locks Of Love uses the highest quality prosthetic hairpieces-the children benefiting from Locks Of Love can swim, play sports, and do all the activities that they would do as kids without the fear that someone will know that they are sick or wearing prosthetic hair.

This helps restore their sense of self, their confidence, and their sense of normalcy. They receive their custom made, custom fitted hairpiece free of charge or on a sliding scale, depending on financial need. It is estimated that 80% of donations come from other children wanting to help their peers.

Guidelines For Donating to Locks Of Love:

-Your must be 10 inches or longer to donate to Locks Of Love. Keep in mind that that after you cut your ponytail, there will be adjustments to be made your style because your hair will be uneven. Allow at least another 1 ½ inches to be cut to allow for this.

-Your hair can be chemically treated (color, perm, or relaxers), but cannot be bleached or damaged. Hair must be healthy with no split ends to donate. We may need to trim the ends of your hair before we take the actual donation depending on what condition your hair is in.

-Your must be clean and dry to donate it. However, our free haircut does include a shampoo, cut and style out.

-We welcome people with all hair types to donate their hair, including kinky or curly hair. The hair just needs to be the minimum 10 inches when stretched out.

-Hair with lots of layers is usable if the overall length is at least 10 inches

-Haircuts are complimentary with Junior Stylists only. Locks Of Love haircuts are available with other stylist at their regular prices. Want to donate but can’t make it in on a Tuesday or Wednesday? Come in during a different day-we will still cut your hair at our usual prices.

- Hair that is not usable for will be sold by LOL to help offset the cost of producing the hairpieces. Because of the high quality of the prosthetic, they can cost between $3500-6000, so your help is greatly needed.
