Re-Introducing the Hairshares Project: Why and How To Donate

in #hairshares7 years ago

~Your hair is the gift that keeps on giving~

After spending a little under a month under the @nepd account, the @hairshares Project finally has its own home. If you missed it the first time around, here is a little background.

The late mother of Mrs. @nepd, who died of cancer not long before we were married, wore a wig after losing her hair due to the effects of chemotherapy.

Ever since Mrs. @nepd - whose hair grows like it had a mind of its own - has donated her hair about every 18-24 months. She routinely cuts off 10 to 16 inches of her hair at a time to send in to donate.

The Hairshares project strives to encourage and reward those willing to do what she does... willingly donate their hair to worthy causes like Wigs for Kids, Beautiful Lengths and Locks for Love. You can read this donation tutorial if you are interested in becoming a donor.

The gift of your hair can put a smile on someone's face that really needs it... and a smile can be an incredibly important tool when fighting diseases like cancer, alopecia or any other reason that one may lose their hair.

The @hairshares account will diligently upvote and resteem hair donors and others that are charitable with their time, talent and treasure here on Steemit.

One way we aim to reward donors and those that help the community is with HAIRSHARE tokens. Each token can be exchanged for a 10% upvote from the @hairshares account. The @nepd account will be used until sufficient SP can be accumulated here. @nepd will eventually delegate 10k plus to the @hairshares account.

You can sell/trade/purchase HAIRSHARE tokens on the Bitshares DEX. They are currently trading for about 8 cents (.5 BTS) and are worth a 16 cent upvote. They can also be exchanged for WHALESHARE on a 5 to 1 basis.

See below for more ways you can help the project:

If you or a friend/family member would like to donate your hair and be rewarded:

Create a post detailing your donation, using the "hairshares" tag
Take pictures/videos with the date/Steemit Logo
Tell us where you are donating the hair
You will be rewarded with upvotes, resteems and an ever-growing Jackpot of coins/tokens.

If you'd like to help reward Hairshares donators and other charitable projects:

Upvote and Resteem posts with the Hairshares tag
Consider delegating SP in support of @hairshares

If you'd like to raise awareness about the Hairshares Project:

Please heartfully consider donating your hair, your talents or your Steem Power to this worthy cause. Feel free to contact me in the comments, on Twitter or on the Whaleshares Discord.

That model in the back is freaking me out!!

It's a little freaky isn't it. We need to give it some hair!

It sees you. It knows you are looking. It will find you.

As long as it doesn't go Liam Neeson on me!

Salute! I saw your fresh account so I wanted to give you my welcome. This post deserves an upvote and see you in your next post!
Getting those upvotes on a new account can be a daunting task, believe me, so I suggest you to try out Steemfollower as you can earn 5x more steem than just upvoting by yourself! It's a simple and safe vote exchange that is free to use. I also recently made this post explaining that in more depth and it has become my most upvoted post yet.

@nepd got you a $1.65 @minnowbooster upgoat, nice!
