Thao My confided: "I learned about the hair donation project for cancer patients of the Breast Cancer Network Vietnam (BCNV) through social networks. Moreover, my parents often told me about their friends' children who had done this act. Since then, I have cherished the plan to donate my hair. This summer, I can donate my long hair, I have been growing my hair since first grade."
Thao My did not forget to take a picture with her long hair before getting it cut.
On the morning of June 13, Thao My was taken by her mother to a hair salon on Vo Van Tan Street, District 3, Ho Chi Minh City to donate her hair. This is one of many hair salons affiliated with the BCNV network.
"I'm a little nervous and a little sad about having to part with a part of my hair that I'm so familiar with," Thao My whispered as she sat down in the hair salon chair.
Because they were so familiar with the image of young girls donating their hair and understood the feelings of teenage girls, the hair salon staff were very warm and caring and gave Thao My detailed instructions on the hair donation process. This made the little girl feel more secure.
After washing and drying her hair, the hair salon staff used a ruler to measure the length of hair to be donated, which was 25 cm, then tied it up and started cutting. Before cutting, the hair salon staff did not forget to encourage Thao My once again with a warm smile...
Thao My has her hair measured by a hair salon employee for the length she needs.
Holding her newly cut hair, Thao My felt a bit sad: "I feel a little regretful right now, but thinking about how my hair will be made into new hairstyles for many women to wear after losing their hair due to chemotherapy makes me forget that feeling of regret."
After more than an hour, the girl Thao My with her charming long hair has now become a girl with a ponytail. It looks both familiar and strange, but very adorable.
Returning home, the first thing Thao My did was look in the mirror, looking at her new, strange hair over and over again and smiling at herself in the mirror.

"I am happy to have completed my plan, contributing a little to ease the pain of the women who have to go through the pain of cancer. I promise to continue to take care of my hair and will continue to donate hair when my hair is long enough. Moreover, I will put it in my piggy bank, in addition to donating hair, I hope to contribute my savings to BCNV to have funds to make wigs. I will also share this work with my friends, hoping that many of them will respond, contributing to the best of their ability to ease the pain of cancer patients", Thao My expressed.
