Twins from Birmingham have donated their knee-length hair to charity after never having a haircut in their 12 years. The sisters, who have not been named, had their hair cut for the first time to support the Little Princess Trust, which provides real hair wigs to children and young people with cancer.
Hair Donation Raises Over £1,000
The twins' hair, which measured around 36 inches each, was cut at a salon in Kings Heath. They have raised over £1,000 through sponsorship, with funds going to the charity. The girls said they were nervous but excited to have their hair cut for the first time.
Inspiring Others
Their mother, Emma, said: "We are so proud of them. They have been determined to do this for a long time, and it's amazing to see them achieve their goal." The twins hope their story will inspire others to donate hair or funds to the charity.
Little Princess Trust Impact
The Little Princess Trust has provided over 15,000 wigs since it was founded in 2006. The charity relies on hair donations and fundraising to support children and young people experiencing hair loss due to cancer treatment or other conditions.
