On Monday, while other teens were out enjoying the summer breeze rushing through their hair, one teen followed his plan to give his to charity. Sixteen-year-old Ian Taylor donated over 10 inches of his long brown hair at Sculpt Hair Studio located on South Mattis Avenue in Champaign.
Taylor's hair will now begin a journey to becoming a high-quality hair prosthesis for a youth suffering from medical hair loss. A few ponytails of his hair will be sent to Locks of Love, a nonprofit organization that began in 1997.
