When Suzanne Chimera and Dean Riskin walk into work every day, they expect anywhere from 75 to 100 packages to arrive in the mail _ each filled with ponytails.
Their small Roslyn Heights office has thousands of freshly cut hair donations from people around Long Island, the country and the world sorted in large storage bins around the space, ranging from brown hair and blond hair to curly hair and dreadlocks.
Those individually packaged ponytails in Ziploc bags will eventually become a free wig for children and adults experiencing medical hair loss, thanks to the LI-based nonprofit Hair We Share.
