I asked my one daughter years ago if she wanted to do that, she was maybe 8 or 9 at the time. Her response, I'm sorry for those people mommy but there is no way they are getting my hair! All 3 of my girls have long blonde hair to their lower back or butt, they hate when I even trim it! The guys in the house get very upset if I let someone cut my hair, they all say NOT SHORT!

I think locks of love is great! My mom sister and niece all grew their hair out together and got it cut together. It was very cool!


Because I am ignorant to all things alpaca and llama what is the difference? :/

I don't have an envelope to mail the hair yet so my hair is in a pony tail in ziplock bag on the table still....i should probably mail that soon.

Southern: The main differences between a llama and an alpaca are size and type of fiber.




Why is it so difficult to start a non profit organization??? I'm getting fed up with everything we have to do and we've barely started :he

Quickest way to tell llamas and alpacas apart, especially if you only have one animal in front of you, is by the ears. Alpacas have short spear-shaped ears and llamas have long banana-shaped ears.

I used to groom a couple of those (about 25 years ago). Maybe they were angoras I don't really know. :hu
I just remember they would get so matted and I'd have to shave them down to the skin and their skin was paper thin, it was awful!
Very pretty rabbits but they must be a bear for people to brush all the time.

Pretty and soooo soft! Your guy is a cutie!

Well call me strange, but next weekend I'm taking Hank to Tractor Supply to have his picture taken with Santa :rolleyes:

It's an event that people are taking their pets to, and it benefits a local animal rescue so Ownedby3alpacas messaged them on facebook and asked if it was alright to bring a goat, and they said yes!

She even crocheted a bowtie for him for the occasion :D I tried it on him today and it is rather adorable...looking back I should've gotten a picture of it.

They're all growing in their winter fluff so everyone is looking a bit on the portly side, especially Elf who looks like a pom pom..

Hope no one got trampled while out shopping today!
