HAIR DONATIONS
Hair For Hope is a partnership program with Makati Medical Center, Asian Hospital, UP Manila, ADMU and other beneficiary organizations, that provides free wigs to cancer patients. For every nine quality-passed hair bundles, Hair for Hope will give one wig to the chosen beneficiary organization for a patient in need.
GUIDELINES:
1. Make sure to dry and brush hair. To keep the hair less messy as much as possible. Clean, shampoo, and/or condition hair, without any styling, hairspray, or additional hair products. Hair for Hope accepts treated, bleached, rebonded, colored, curly or straight hair.
2. Create a ponytail with an elastic band. Measure the length of the ponytail from the elastic band to the tips, making sure it’s at least 12 inches or 30.5 cm long.
3. Cut the hair just above the elastic band so that the elastic band remains on the ponytail after cutting and keeps cut hair together.
Place the ponytail, keep it intact with the elastic band, in a zipper-locked bag and seal tightly.
4. If you choose to get your hair cut for donations from a trained hairstylist of HEADS volu-med Manila, there is a service fee of Php 400.00 that will be charged.
5. You may take a photo of the Before & After Haircut which will be posted in the Hair for Hope social media accounts.
6. You may request a Certificate of Donation by sending the following details via email to hairforhope@heads.ph
a. Complete Name
b. Pictures (Before & After Haircut)
c. Date of Donation
For Hair Donation via courier, please send to the following addresses:
