When Aurélie, the head of the show Fa Si la Coiffer, discovered, a few months ago no glue lace wigs, the action of the Solidhair association, she did not hesitate.

"The client donates his hair, 20 cm minimum. In exchange, I offer him a discount. An action she has been proposing for a month in her living room. With already four beautiful stories to the key. Wigs Subsidized Sent to Solidhair, an association created by Sophie Bouxirot, the hair is then sold to kilograms by wigmakers. The money raised makes it possible to pay a subsidy of 300 € to people with cancer, and having financial difficulties to buy a hair prosthesis. Because a natural hair wig is expensive. About 400 €, of which only one part is taken care of by the Social Security. "Many patients prefer to wear a headscarf, for lack of means, or because synthetic wigs are of lesser quality," continues Aurélie. It is important that they can benefit, especially women. The hair is the symbol of femininity, of sensuality. " The Facebook page Assoc Solidhair, with over 1,100 friends, displays new partner shows every day. They are currently over 200 throughout France.
