Miranda Gordon plans to donate her hair to Locks of Love, an organization that uses human hair to make wigs for children who are suffering hair loss medical condition.

Miranda Gordon had plenty of hair and she decided to donate it to charity for worthy cause. After four years without having haircut.

Gordon, 10 year old from Houghton, she had 10 inches hair long had been donated at Xpressions in Handcock Friday afternoon. She said “I was hearing about it, and I wanted to try it.”

Becky Gordon, her mother said Miranda was also motivated by her late grandfather Andy, who died of cancer.

Becky said “I’m very, very proud. That’s the kind of person she is though.., she’s hoping that the kids will be happy by having more hair.

When her hair grows out, Gordon said she might try it again.

In the meantime, there’s another upside.

“I told her she’s going to run even faster when she plays sports,” Becky Gordon said. “Less drag.”
