I am a community ambassador with Pantene for Million Inch Chain. Together we are working to empower women battling cancer and help them regain their confidence. Our goal is to collect 1 million inches of hair so that we may provide wigs to women who would otherwise be unable to afford them. Please help support this amazing cause… we could use every inch of hair we can get!
