46 year old cancer survivor, Paula Lamb, has donated her hair to the Little Princess Trust to help young people suffering with hair loss, and UK hair transplant company FUE have commented on this charitable event.

After surviving a battle with cervical cancer for six years, Paula decided to have her locks snipped with her plait donated to the Little Princess Trust. She was lucky enough to have the cancer spotted early enough so she didn’t have to go through the process of chemotherapy, but others aren’t so lucky and suffer radical hair loss. The donation of her hair will be put towards making wigs for children, which offers a short term relief to having no hair.

Paula decided to help young people after seeing her nephew lose his hair due to chemotherapy when trying to treat cancer for his eyes, and she said ‘He has a rare cancer called retinoblastina, so I’ve witnessed a young child battle cancer in my own family and chemotherapy’s inevitable side effects.’ Another reason for going through with the donation was due to also having two children of her own. ‘I have two teenagers, so I understand how important image and hair is to them.’

FUE Hair Clinics keep in the loop on hair loss and restoration related news topics, and have commented on Paula’s contribution. ‘Cancer is a terrible disease many have to go through, and losing all your hair only adds to the grief and pain experienced through cancer. The wigs should help the children cope a little better with what they’re going through, and after they’ve made it through the ordeal, they can grow their hair back via a hair transplant or hair tattooing. There is a ton of support and help for those who’ve been through the worst of diseases.’

The FUE spokesperson further elaborated, ‘We’ve helped a number of patients who’ve suffered with cancer over the years, and it breaks our hearts to see the ravages of such a disease. To help we’ve hosted competitions in the past, which have been incredibly moving yet uplifting experiences as we offer help to those who’ve been hit the hardest.’
