Will the hair from shaved heads at Shavathon be used to make wigs?
Only long hair over 22 cm is kept – the other hair is thrown away. For donated hair, clean and dry hair must be put into a ponytail and then cut with scissors, keeping the ponytail intact.

Box 2121, Bedfordview, 2008, or 26 Concorde Rd West, Bedfordview, 2008, or can be delivered to your local CANSA office. The hair is then delivered to Pro31, a wig company that donates R100 to CANSA for every lace wig sold.
