Fredon girl gives gift of her hair for the holidays

FREDON — When Sadie Brand's third grade teacher, Courtney Petermann, donated some of her hair to charity, Brand was very impressed. The charity to which Petermann had donated was Pantene Beautiful Lengths, and Brand couldn't get what her teacher had done
out of her mind. She, herself, had long hair which she loved and couldn't imagine parting with. But then there was that wonderful thing Mrs. Petermann had done. 

In the spirit of the holidays, the third grader at The Fredon School decided to follow suit and on Saturday, donated locks to the same charity with her mom and beloved teacher by her side. Brand knew that her donation would help someone who didn't have hair get a wig. But on Saturday, when she was at Ultima Hair Designers Salon & Spa in Andover getting the cut, it really hit home. 

“While we were there, a stylist who works there told us about her daughter who is very sick and lost all of her hair and explained to Sadie just how important this was,” said Brand's mother, Niki Brand. “There wasn't a dry eye in the salon.”
