Story

Hello everyone!

So everyone seems to be liking my trendy new hair, however trend is not something I pay much attention to unsure emoticon

I actually cut off my long, lovely, feminine hair to be able to make a donation for little children with illnesses (such as those who might be going through chemo therapy). Since it's the time of year for lent and ramadan is coming up, I thought about what I could give up.

My hair wasn't a fashion statement for me, it was something that made me feel safe on a night out, like if I put my hair down I will always look fine. It's something I became very attached to. This is when I decided it would mean a great deal if I were to donate it to someone who'd feel the same special way if they were wearing my long hair instead!

The hair dressers I went to called Neelams in East London were amazing, they looked up the facts and made sure we did it right. They even gave me a discount as they wanted to support me, which I felt very touched by as I'd never been there before. I highly recommend them:http://neelamshairandbeauty.com/

I donated my hair and made a small cash donation to The Little Princess Trust. It costs the charity £350 per wig if they are buying it - but a hair donation means the charity can have the wig made for free! They are a small charity so if you think what I did was pretty nice and you'd like to help too then you can text WIGS01 to 70070 to make a £5 donation.
