How to handle those difficult conversations around wigs and hair loss ~ With My New Hair Charity

Send us Fan Mail How to handle those difficult conversations around wigs and hair loss.Ann Fox and Joanne Atkinson both join me for this touching discussion around their incredible work with the My New Hair charity. Ann's Mum died of lung cancer when she was 18, and this spurred her on to work in nursing.Similarly Joanne has spent 35 years in cancer care and has a PHD in end of life care after a friend died of leukaemia. They were shocked to find that although they strive to give their patients the best possible care, the aftercare they received when it came to procuring a wig was severely lacking.The ladies decided to get involved in the L'Oreal My New Hair programme, along with Trevor Sorbie, to help educate hairdressers in how best to help cancer patients get a better standard of care and service. They have produced a toolkit to help patients to get a suitable wig and be able to have it fitted and customised.You can contact the charity for leaflets, resources, templates and information for fundraising and support.WebsiteInstagram Hair & Scalp Salon Specialist course Support the showConnect with Hair therapy:FacebookInstagramTwitterClubhouse- @Hair.TherapyHair Therapy WebsiteDonate towards the podcast Start your own podcastHair & Scalp Salon Specialist Course ~ Book now to become an expert! Laser Hair Growth Cap | At Home LLLT Therapy | FDA Cleared | LIVDOR Save £50 off LIVDOR laser cap with code HAIRTHERAPYUK
