Lost Boys Lose Long Locks! Actors are often asked, "Are you willing to change your hair for this role?" Such was the case for our female "Lost Boys" when they were being considered for male roles in Peter Pan. Their answers, you ask? "Anything to be in Peter Pan!" These "Lost Boys" opted to lop their locks earlier rather than later to begin the process of getting into character.

The event took place on May 28th, at Fusion 3 Salon in downtown Pleasanton. Fusion 3 donated their services in cutting three of our girls' hair (Madison Brinnon, Deborah Lagin, and Imani Wilson). Madison and Imani's hair was long enough to meet the 10" requirement to donate to Locks of Love.

Locks of Love is a public non-profit organization that provides hairpieces to financially disadvantaged children in the United States and Canada under age 18 suffering from long-term medical hair loss. Other females who lost their long locks separately are Chelsea Nenni and Melissa Heinrich.
