Story

Hi there,

Last summer I decided to donate 14 inches of my hair to the Rapunzel Foundation, to create a freedom wig for someone with Alopecia. It has been 6 long months since I've had my hair cut ...and I think I am almost there! No more over heating hairdryers :)

I am also doing this in aid of the Refugee Crisis that Trocaire are supporting. So, if you'd like to support me in my quest to lose a few inches and pounds off my head, then we will definitely welcome your donation.

Thanks a lot, Orla
