Hair Fair 2015 in Second Life opened yesterday and runs until July 26th. As well as being a showcase for hair designers in Second Life, the event also has a charitable side with a portion of all sales being donated to Wigs For Kids, who help children who have suffered hair loss :
For over 30 years, Wigs for Kids has been providing Hair Replacement Systems and support for children who have lost their hair due to chemotherapy, radiation therapy, Alopecia, Trichotillomania, burns and other medical issues at no cost to children or their families.
There are a couple of thank you letters from Wigs For Kids on the Hair Fair 2015 website, including one from 2012, which thanks Second Life residents for raising over $10,000 for the cause.
Now as this is a busy event you’re likely to want to take a look at the official Hair Fair 2015 website for information. The Hair Fair 2015 Store Slurls & Map Guide blog post is an extremely useful resource because not only does it provide information about where the stores are, it also provides information regarding additional sims that will be available in the early days of the event.
I had to teleport to one of the additional sims to take photos for this blog post because the main four sims of Blonde, Brunette, Redhead and Noirette were all full. Now being as it was 4am SLT when I tried to teleport to the regions, it suggests that the first few days are going to be extremely busy.
