Davy Hughes pictured with his mane of hair which will be donated to The Little Princess Trust
Kilkenny man David Hughes has cut off his long locks of hair, which he has been growing for over three years, for charity.
To date over €1,500 has been raised for the Locks of Love for LauraLynn - hair donation fundraiser.
“I’ve been growing the hair since lock down number one in 2020. It started as an, ‘Ah sure I'll just let it grow for a bit’. Then it just got longer and gingerer! That was three and a half years ago now and its finally time to shed these glorious locks,” he said.
Funds raised will be donated for children with life-limiting conditions in LauraLynn while Davy’s locks will also be used to create a wig for a child in need through The Little Princess Trust, which provides real hair wigs to both children and adults who have lost their own hair through cancer treatment or other conditions.
