TAGGED:
We're a thoughtful bunch here at peta2. Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen have a birthday coming up, and we wanted to come up with a birthday present for them. We figured that since they seem to be in such dire need of extra hair on their bodies, why not donate some of ours to them?
Animals have no choice when they are skinned alive, clubbed, gassed, or electrocuted for their fur, but those of us giving hair to the Trollsen Twins certainly do have a choice. Want to wish Hairy-Kate and Trashley a Happy Birthday—while sending a compassionate message?
If you're getting a haircut soon, or simply have a lot of hair in your brush, put that in an envelope along with a note that reads, "Please, use my hair instead of the animals'. Happy Birthday." Mail it to the Trollsen Twins at the address found here. And of course, send a picture to StreetTeam@peta2.com so we can see your fine work! Check out what we're mailing to the twins from peta2:
My good friend Paul got really into this mission. Check it out:
Is the idea of wearing human hair weird? Certainly—that's the point. I'm sure if animals could speak human, they'd let us know (in some strongly-worded language) that it's really weird that people wear animal fur—and awful, selfish, disgusting, and cruel, too.

PS - Do you think it's any coincidence that the Trollsen Twins' birthday happens to fall on Friday the 13th?

Posted by: Geri at June 9, 2008 3:41 PMI have plenty of hair to send 'em but, as I'm in the UK, by the time it arrives in America their birthday will have passed!
Posted by: Little_Lotte at June 9, 2008 4:00 PMsounds weird at first, but then again, wearing someone's skin is just insane. and they ARE wearing hair, so really I'm only doing them a favor ^.^
don't have much hair being a boy, but I get points you say? hmmm I do like getting points ^_^
Posted by: Ariel at June 9, 2008 4:09 PMhaha. i might if i get enough in my brush. but my mom HATES it when there's hair in my brush. so i might not have that much luck.
Posted by: Lilly at June 9, 2008 4:40 PMThat IS sort of a coincidence that their birthday is on friday the 13th!
I'm really planning on cutting my hair shorter so I hope they like the red highlights in my hair :D
Posted by: Danielle at June 9, 2008 9:44 PMWhere do I send the hair. My hair comes out like crazy, if I know where I can send it I'll so send it.
=]]]
Posted by: Cookie at June 9, 2008 9:46 PMThat's a hilariously awesome idea, I just cut off 13 inches for a different cause (making wigs for children with cancer, but with no profit to the organisation because they do animal research I wanted to help the kids without hurting the animals) last month though so I don't really have any hair to spare :(
Posted by: Angela at June 9, 2008 11:47 PMLOL Excellent idea! My hair is so long. I have lots to send!
Posted by: Kelly at June 10, 2008 7:34 AMi will send!! but i lives in norway, so it won't arrive in america before their birthday has past...
Posted by: frida at June 10, 2008 10:29 AMI'm doing it.
I don't see why they won't give in and stop wearing fur. It's so trashy looking. Yuck.
Posted by: Amanda at June 10, 2008 10:59 AMdang that guy looks so much hotter with the hair cut!!!!!!!!!
OMG!! I want to do that!
that sounds like a good idea instead of them wearing ugly animal hides.
they belong on the ANIMAL not the people. If people were meant to have fur woe'd have it now wouldn't we?
Posted by: erika at June 11, 2008 8:58 AMI just got my hair cut a few weeks ago...but I sent it to Wigs for Kids (another worthy cause, ne?). Do you think it would work if I cleaned out my cat's brush and sent that as a belated b-day gift instead? It'd be like "Use what's not being used." or something... or would that just be compleatly irrevalent... Kitty's hair is animal hair weather he's useing it or not, right? But it would be a good use for all the Kitty(hair)stuck to my pillow.... Hmmm, it's an idea.
Posted by: Hannah at June 14, 2008 2:43 AMHaha thats my cousins birthday but she doesnt ware fur.=) That hilarioustoo bad im reading abot it about 4 months late.=) I so wouldve done that.=)
