yes they are using hair to help absorb the oil from the bay area oil spill. see link below. I frequently drive to Hayward (near the hair receive site) and can take your hair with me. I shaved my own head and thought we don't need a bunch of cars driving to deliver all this hair...So I'll be the Berkeley hair receive site for now. Email me if you have any questions and directions to my house. I'll be delivering 3 days a week. Thanks for your help, pete

Hair instructions from their site...
Instructions:
Please line boxes (recycled shampoo supply boxes work well) with plastic garbage bags. Please no metal pins or clips (if possible, please no cigarette buts or paper cups etc.).
Yes, individuals can also mail in to this warehouse. Pet hair is ok too - but not as efficient . As if Mother Nature said "Only humans will be silly enough to spill oil. Better dangle the best solution infront of their eyes."
Yes all types and colors of hair can be donated, since everyone lays on the beaches and swims in the waters. And especially since all the hair and oil are removed as toxic waste.
