6 year old donates her hair to charity.

I spotted a truly heart warming story about a 6 year old girl in the USA who had decided to cut her long blonde hair. When her mother reluctantly took her to the hairdressers, they suggested letting is get a little longer as she could then donate the hair to a company who make wigs for children. In the USA every year so many children lose their hair due to burns, chemo and alopecia. What a lovely thing to do!

Gail Porter recovering from Alopecia

On a lighter note for Alopecia sufferers, I see that Gail Porter (model-turned-TV-Presenter) is recovering after 4 years of suffering from alopecia. She is only 38 and her hair loss must have been devastating for her but she has kept a brave face and managed to get herself a 24 year old boyfriend!
