I’ve donated my hair several times over the years. Any stylist should be able to do it as you are the client. They’ll put your hair in pigtails or braids and cut above the hair tie. I will say that I’ve had some stylists (in CA) give me a hard time about cutting my hair. It’s not really their place to say, so I didn’t use their services. My go to stylist is Jess at salon951 on Hope Street.

I recommend using Wigs for Kids. You do have to mail it in yourself, but they don’t charge folks for the wigs they make.

Some people have strong reservations around cutting very long hair. In my experience it was due to culture and in my culture long hair is very valued.
