Official photos and fundraising tallies are coming soon — but the real work has already begun. While we wait for the glamour shots and final calculations, we couldn’t wait to show you how the sparkle of our gala transformed into pure dedication the very next morning.

BEFORE: The beautiful ballroom, styled to perfection by Simple Party Designs INC, , stood ready for the Hair We Share 13th Annual Gala — elegant, glowing, and filled with hope.

AFTER: At sunrise, our incredible crew from Lifes WORC stood proudly in front of our official sponsor step‑and‑repeat. Despite getting home late from the gala, they went straight to work sorting ponytails — ponytails that are now funded because of the generosity of our guests, sponsors, and supporters. This is what impact looks like. This is what community looks like.

And to our sponsors — a special note of gratitude.
This beautiful step‑and‑repeat will remain right here in our workshop until our next gala. Every single day, as our team processes hair donations, your logo will stand behind them, symbolizing the support that keeps our mission moving forward.

A massive thank you to:
Beauty by Imagination – Wet Brush, Goody, Ouidad, Bio Ionic, Terra Nova, Michael Cymbala, Michael Furino, and Leone & Sons.
Your partnership doesn’t just make our gala possible — it makes our work possible.

Rose went through some of the toughest chemo treatments, including long hospital stays and continuous infusions. After the infusion along with transplant, she ended up in the hospital for one month. All this caused her hair to come back but sparse.
When her hair started growing in, it was still very thin and short — and she told us she felt embarrassed to go out like that.
She realized when you loose your hair & look in the mirror is when you know you have cancer.

We were so happy to help her feel like herself again with a Hair We Share wig.

Her daughter Ari, who owns East Coast Salon, was so touched by the difference it made that she hosted a fundraiser to support more families going through medical hair loss.

Hair styled by Jo Marie Hair and Beauty.

Hair We Share Gala Sponsor Announcement
We are so proud to share this special moment from our upcoming Hair We Share Gala. In this video, we announce two incredible industry sponsors who have stepped up in a major way — BBI Beauty by Imagination and Terra Nova Hair.

For years, Hair We Share has been powered by compassion, community, and the belief that confidence can change a life. To have companies within the beauty industry stand behind our mission is truly monumental. Their support helps us continue providing free, high‑quality human hair wigs to children and adults experiencing medical hair loss from cancer, alopecia, and other medical conditions.

This partnership is more than sponsorship — it’s validation, momentum, and a powerful reminder that our mission resonates deeply within the industry that understands hair better than anyone.

Thank you, BBI Beauty By Imagination and Terra Nova Hair, for believing in the work we do and for helping us reach even more people who need comfort, dignity, and hope.

💛 Join us at the Hair We Share 2026 Fundraising Gala on September 24th at Crest Hollow Country Club.
Together, we can make an even greater impact.

A man burned over 90% of his body at just 20 months old.

Their stories remind us that hair loss isn’t always simple — sometimes it comes from unimaginable trauma. Our mission is to restore confidence, dignity, and hope through custom‑crafted wigs made with love and compassion.

Every donation, every share, every act of support helps someone feel whole again.
