Optional Payment Methods for Donations

Make Your Donation Even More Meaningful – Join the Ponytail Tracking Program!

Give your hair donation a personal touch by joining our Ponytail Tracking Program.

By joining, you’ll receive a photo of your hair in a wig. While recipient privacy is our priority, when possible, we may also share a photo of the wig recipient.

You will also receive a Hair We Share “I made the cut” t-shirt and a certificate of achievement.

The Ponytail Tracking program comes with  $150 financial contribution and helps cover the wig's production costs. You can also contribute via check or a crowdfunding campaign (Rootfunding or Facebook).
