Dear Queenie,
When my daughter came home on vacation she was practically bald because she had cut off all her beautiful hair to donate it to Locks of Love.
Queenie, I’m proud of her for making this sacrifice, but what can I say to people who ask me why she looks so funny, does she have cancer or something?—Embarrassed mother
Dear Embarrassed,
I see no reason for you to be embarrassed. Just tell people what you have told me – that your daughter contributed her hair to a worthy cause and that you are proud of her for doing so.
