How to give hair to cancer patients?

Hey, that's a really kind gesture. Most places that collect hair for cancer patients have specific guidelines on hair length and if it should be treated or not. Best to search online for 'hair donation India' and you'll find organizations like Hair for Hope or Cope with Cancer who can tell you exactly how to go about it.

Oh, I've seen so many posts about this on Instagram! It's such a lovely thing to do. Many local NGOs or even some big hospitals have tie-ups with wig makers. They usually ask for minimum 10-12 inches of hair, clean and dry. Maybe you can check their websites or call them directly.

Achha sawal hai beta. My niece donated her hair last year. She went to a salon that was specially trained for it. They cut it in sections and then packaged it properly. It's a wonderful contribution, makes a big difference to someone's confidence during such a tough time. Don't worry, many places will guide you.

Yes, I did this a few years ago! First, make sure your hair is healthy, not too much chemical treatment. You usually need at least 10-12 inches. Braid your hair into small sections before cutting, secure with rubber bands on both ends. Then place it in a ziplock bag and send it to a registered NGO. They'll tell you the exact address.

That's a very noble thought. I have a friend whose wife did this recently. They connected with an organisation called 'Hair for Hope'. They have clear instructions on their website about how to cut and send the hair. It's important to follow their specific guidelines for it to be usable.

Wah, what a great idea! My hair is thinning too much to donate now, but I wish I had thought of this earlier. Most places ask for hair that's not coloured or heavily treated, so keep that in mind. And make sure it's long enough, no point in giving short hair if they can't use it for a wig, right? Good luck!
