Locks of Love

As some of you may have already known, Dr. Bobendrier has been growing her hair out for quite awhile now.  With the wedding passed, it was time for a trim.  So off to her favorite hair stylist, Shannon!  This past weekend, we took a trip to Sioux Falls, SD to get her hair done.  With her hair in Shannon’s trust, it always turns out fantastic.  This time around, it was decided that Dr. Bobendrier would get a new look.  We had also heard a lot about the wonderful organizations that take hair donations for those disadvantaged by medical conditions that may leave them hairless.  One of these organizations is Locks of Love.  Their Mission Statements states:  “Our mission is to return a sense of self, confidence and normalcy to children suffering from hair loss by utilizing donated ponytails to provide the highest quality hair prosthetics to financially disadvantaged children. The children receive hair prostheses free of charge or on a sliding scale, based on financial need.”

Locks of Love provides these wigs for children with varying medical conditions such as cancer and most notably alopecia areata.  Discover Chiropractic is very pleased that Dr. Bobendrier was able to contribute to such an organization, and we encourage others to help too!
