“I wanted to donate to honour those in my life who have fought cancer. My Grandma, my Nana, my Grandfather, my Father and my Godmother. I love my hair, I always have. And I’ll love it more knowing it is with someone who needs it more than me.”

"Azaaryah, my 7 year-old daughter has been growing her hair to donate to someone who needs it. We hope it’s a blessing to those who can make use of it."

I'm a survivor myself, I didn't use a wig and I know those looks, some of surprise, some of pity, all of them reminding you of the illness. I hope my contribution can help shield someone from those looks, and bring a sense of normality that cancer usually takes away.

I am very excited to donate my hair to a good cause. I hope to help someone feel better.

How your donation helps:

With your hair donation, you give the gift of beauty, confidence, self-love and hope to someone experiencing hair loss due to illness. When a person goes through cancer treatment, the effects of that treatment can cause hair to fall out. There are few things more debilitating than appearing different from those around them, to have something beyond their control affect them so immensely. They want to feel beautiful just like you! Your hair will contribute toward a human hair wig – the most natural kind – and help restore their confidence and hope.
