She Didn’t Cut Her Hair For 25 Years, But Wait Till You See Her Now

We all have the impulse to alter some aspect of our look from time to time.

A little change is always rejuvenating, whether it’s the boring hairdo we’ve worn for years or the clothes we grew weary of.

After 25 years without a haircut, Rosa Ramirez, a woman from the United States, decided it was finally time for a change.

She occasionally walked on her hair since it got so long.

Her husband had attempted to persuade her over the years to modify her hairdo, but she had always been very proud of her 1.5 meter long hair.

She went to the hairdresser with some of her pals after 25 hard years and had her hair cut to her shoulders because she had finally had enough.

“We love to see different things done on customers — different styles — and we meet very often and I always see her the same way,” Eda Motchka, the owner of the hair salon told WXYZ-TV Detroit about Ramirez.

But she had a reason for doing that. Rosa sent 4 feet of her hair to the nonprofit company Locks of Love, which manufactures wigs for kids whose hair has been lost to cancer.

“I think it would make somebody’s day who’s suffering from a bad disease, it will make their day a little brighter,” Ramirez said.

Rosa’s evolution is very fascinating to see. See it in action in the video down below.
