The Big Chop - Half my hair for a beautiful cause

Donation protected
Hi, I’m Emily!

I’ve had extremely long hair for years — it currently measures around 120cm from root to tip, and considering I’m only 151cm tall, that’s nearly as long as I am! It’s completely natural with no colours or dyes, and it’s taken a long time to grow.

Now it’s time for a big change.

I’ll be cutting off at least half of my hair (around 60cm) and donating it to The Little Princess Trust, a charity that creates real hair wigs for children who have lost their hair due to cancer and other medical conditions.

The charity usually asks for a minimum donation of 30cm of hair, but I’ve decided to double that and donate around 60cm — cutting my hair in half so it can hopefully make an even bigger difference.

While donating hair is amazing, it also costs money to turn donated hair into wigs. On average, it costs around £700 to create just one wig. These wigs can make an incredible difference to a child’s confidence during an already very difficult time.

That’s why I’m raising funds alongside my hair donation — to help cover the cost of making wigs for children who need them.

Every donation, no matter how small, will help turn this hair into something truly meaningful for a child facing cancer.

Thank you so much for your support, encouragement, and generosity.

Want to join me in making a difference? I’m raising money to benefit The Little Princess Trust, and any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.
More information about The Little Princess Trust: When a child loses their hair to cancer, we'll be there with a free, real hair wig to help restore their confidence and identity. You can help us give hair and hope to children and young people, by funding real hair wigs and ground-breaking childhood cancer research projects.
