Story

Righty Oh you lovely people this is how the story begins ( wait for the wavy lines!)

Wibbly wibbly wibbly ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

It's time for a change, so I have decided to cut my long hair (having not stepped into a hair dressers for nine years!) Now this coming from a guy who threatened to harm any man who tried to take his lovely locks from him on his stag do; was not an easy decision until......

I was talking with my sister in-law and she mentioned that should I ever decide to cut my hair, I should look into donating it to a charity, as there were Cancer charities out there that wanted hair. Now the time has come for me to cut my hair and in doing some research on the Net I found my chosen charity (http://www.littleprincesses.org.uk). It is a charity which makes real hair wigs to children suffering hair loss due to cancer treatment. After watching their videos and seeing the good work that they do for the children, I knew they were the right choice for me.

Being a father of a little princess myself, I could not bear to imagine how families out there feel when discovering a child has Cancer and to know tht my locks could go to helping a child and their family, brings a smile to my face.

I am aiming to raise £250 as after talking to a spokeswoman from the charity, I was told this is the minimum a real hair wig can cost (I hasten to add the wigs are given free to the children). So If I can break this target it would be great.

So there it is, the long hair needs to go but this time not in the bin!

Please visit their site and find out how your money and my hair would go to benefit Cancer victims and if you ever feel the urge to cut your hair, please don't forget this charity.

Edouard :)
