This year while talking to my bff we really had a difficult time with video messaging each other. It was really hard talking and looking at each without ever having been able to even sit in the same room. Ever hug. Give a high five etc. Also we have been having a on going fun feud about who's hair is better than who's lol. So this year it dawned on me to cut a lock of my hair off for him. So one day after my shower I cut a lock off from the occipital region ( I am a trained Cosmetologist). I used two rubber bands on each end and braided it. I took the entire length (below the bend line) this way no one can tell the hair is missing whether my hair is up or down. You have about 2 inches in either direction to work with lol. So if this is something you want to do I highly recommend asking a trained professional to assist with the braid and cut.
I decided to buy a box at a hobby shop and I stained and finished it myself. I also did a velvet lining in the box. Which I think turned out pretty good considering I am not super crafty. It looked awesome, like a little treasure box with a latch. I bubble wrapped the inside and outside of the box and also bubbled the box so the box didn't get damaged. He loved it!. Also I won the hair feud. Mine is better than his according to him. I may not be able to be there but he can at least for the first time ever touch part of me.
