Wow, this is totally fascinating!!  How quickly times change.  In just a little over 100 years we have learned so much about hygiene and disease that giving hair seems gross but at the time a person was giving the greatest gift they had--a piece of themselves.

I wear two hair bracelets every day.  I had them made from the tail-hair of my two horses here:

I've also got a lock of my husband's hair tucked away in my jewelry box.  Maybe one day I'll send it off to Hairlooms.  When I saw her little cat necklaces, I got sad, because I never did save any of my departed kitties' fur.  I would've sent it off to her in a heartbeat!

I guess I'm just gross.   Wink
