Donate Your Hair, Change a Child’s Life
At Serenity Wig Boutique, we are proud partners of the Angel Hair for Kids program, a national initiative that provides free wigs and hair replacements to children in Canada experiencing medical hair loss.
Each custom wig requires 10–12 donated ponytails and $2,500 to create, which means every strand truly counts. By donating, you’re helping restore a child’s sense of self, confidence, and joy.
Hair Donation Guidelines
To ensure your donation can be used, please follow these requirements:
Minimum Length: 12 inches (curly hair may be pulled straight to measure).
Condition: Slightly coloured or grey hair is acceptable.
Not Accepted: Bleached hair, perms, dreadlocks, wigs, extensions, synthetic hair, or hair swept off the floor.
Stored Hair: Hair cut years ago can still be donated if it has been stored in a braid or ponytail.
How to Prepare Your Hair for Donation
-
Wash and thoroughly dry your hair (no styling products).
-
Place your hair in a braid or ponytail.
-
Secure with strong elastics at both ends.
-
Cut the hair above the elastic to keep the ponytail intact.
-
Place the cut braid or ponytail in a resealable plastic bag.
