This (mini series) is a portrait of Niharika Patel, a 21 year old student who woke up one fine day and donated her gorgeous hair to an organisation called, Cope with Cancer. An absolutely beautiful gesture and I'm not sure how many of us are even aware that this is an option. 
So the next time you're planning a drastic hair cut or if you just feel like making a difference, here are the details and guidelines for hair donation - http://copewithcancer.org/hair-donation/hair-donation-wigs/
