Is the Hindu god happy that his property (the sacrifice of hair) is being reprocessed and repackaged as human hair ?

From Hindu temple to Hollywood hairdo: How thousands of Indian women have their heads shaved to please the gods... only for the hair to end up as £3,000 extensions

The hair of even Indian babies are even scraped and auctioned off to exporters before it ends up in Human Hair.

Every day, thousands of Indian women – and a few men – offer up their hair as a gift to Lord Venkateswara, the presiding deity at the Hindu temple of Tirumala Venkateswara in India.

Temple hair, as it is known, has already found its way to hundreds of British salons, where it is sold in the form of real hair extensions costing up to £3,000 a time.

Yet the women who once possessed the hair – many of them peasants – receive not a penny, donating their hair, instead, as a religious sacrifice.

The shaving ceremony and the sale of hair is not limited to this one holy site, but Tirumala Venkateswara attracts tens of thousands of pilgrims in a single day and is by far the dominant temple in the trade.

Small children being carried by their mothers can be heard whimpering. They too are candidates for tonsuring – the shaving of the head as a sign of religious devotion.

With a few expert sweeps of a razor, each head is shaved smooth and is then doused with water, washing away any blood caused by nicks from the razor.

Often, as they wait for their turn, the women’s faces are impassive, their lips pressed shut, as though trying not to cry.

Thousands have made an oath to their gods – they may have asked to be blessed with a child or for a good harvest. Should their wish be fulfilled, they offer their most precious possession as a sign of gratitude.

Pujari Aruna started her pilgrimage early one Sunday morning and, after walking in her bare feet for 30 hours.
‘Offering your hair to the god is a symbolic gesture of surrendering one’s ego,’ she says, ‘and a way of giving thanks for your blessings.’

Aruna says she is thankful because her husband, Pujari Nagraja, 45, made a swift recovery after an accident. She seems unconcerned by the fate of her hair after tonsure and shakes her head. ‘I don’t know what temple staff will do with it but I am sure they sell it to someone.’

Baskets filled with hair are collected every six hours and stored in a vast warehouse where it is piled knee deep.

Sometimes it has never been cut. The temple then auctions off the hair – even taking online bids – to exporters around the globe.
