Details about the offer:
• Donated hair must be a minimum of 8-inches long (measure hair from just above
the elastic band of the ponytail to the ends).
• Wavy/curly hair texture is fine—you may straighten hair to measure.
• Hair should be freshly washed and completely dry, without any styling products.
• Hair may be colored with vegetable dyes, rinses, and semipermanent dyes. It cannot be bleached,
permanently colored, or chemically treated.
• Hair may not be more than 5% gray. Here’s why:
a. It takes at least six ponytails to make a Pantene Beautiful Lengths wig; in general, each
ponytail comes from a different person and is a different color. Even though some hair
colors may look similar, including gray hair, each is completely unique.
b. For a realistic-looking wig that has consistent color throughout, donated ponytails must
be processed and then dyed to the same shade. It is critical for each ponytail to absorb
dyes at the same rate in order to create wigs of consistent, natural-looking color.
c. Gray hair, as well as some chemically treated or permanently colored hair, does not
absorb dye at the same rate as other types of hair. It is much harder to color and,
once colored, fades more quickly.
d. Most permanently colored hair, once it is processed and recolored, is too fragile
and breakable under the rigorous processing required during the production of
a Pantene Beautiful Lengths wig.
