Dixon Elementary School Principal Jeanne Siegenthaler is the first to have eight inches of hair cut June 11 by Ceil Schwalbach, owner of From Hair On. Dixon's school theme this year was "Myself, My Community, My World." On the last day of school at a school assembly, six students and three adults cut their hair for Pantene's Beautiful Lengths program. The hair will be donated to make wigs for women who have lost their hair due to cancer treatments.
