As many of you know I was diagnosed with Lymphatic cancer when I was 18.

I lost my hair to cancer twice. It sucked! It sucked big style and it felt like another kick to my self confidence, but I was incredibly lucky to at least not be a little one when it happened, and of course to survive.

Since losing my hair it's been really important to me, but I know that it will be more important to a child going through treatment for cancer (or another illness that costs them their hair along with so much else). So I have been growing my hair and it is now long enough to donate..... It's a big deal and if I'm honest I feel excited and sick in e equal measure about giving up my beautiful hair (although I'm sure my hoover and plug hole will be grateful if the break).

I'd love to use this opportunity to raise a bit of money for cancer research in the hopes that in sacrificing my hair (this time for a good cause rather than for my own survival) I can help someone who is fighting now and help in the fight for others not to have to go through this in the future.

Any donation, big or small, will be really grateful received.

Also a HUGE thank you to The Hair House (www.facebook.com/thehairhouseworthing) for offering to do the big chop for free!!!

Thank you.
