The Little Princess Trust has been helping children and young people up to the age of 24 since 2006, by providing free real hair wigs to those who have lost their own hair due to cancer treatment or other conditions, such as Alopecia. They also fund pioneering, life-saving research into childhood cancers.ย 

Trusted Wig Fitters

We are honoured that our salon is part of their network of wig fitters that can supply and fit The Little Princess Trust wigs, which have been made from hair kindly donated by their generous supporters. This network of accredited wig fitters are made up of skilled and experienced people with a positive attitude and a sensitive manner. Simon Constantinou works with children and young adults from across South Wales, striving to support the amazing work that The Little Princess Trust do.

Simon Constantinou has been working with Little Princess Trust for over a decade and the team were absolutely delighted to be awarded the Golden Crown Award in 2019, in 2022 and again in 2023. Continually meeting the most amazing & inspiring young people. Seeing first-hand how much of a difference this can make to a young person’s life, giving a sense of normality in an otherwise difficult time.

Because the Little Princess Trust wigs are made with unprocessed human hair, we are able to customise a colour to help it feel more like the wearerโ€™s natural hair. Some of the older children are big fans of Balayage or colour melts as they mimic a natural sun-kissed look. The wigs can also be cut and shaped by our very talented and experienced wig fitters, to incorporate fringes or layering. In addition to the fitting service, advice is provided on caring for a wig at home – How to wash and dry a wig to ensure it lasts as long as possible and how to style and care for a wig to maximise its day-to-day use.

Fundraising for Little Princess Trust Wigs

We love to support Little Princess Trust in any way that we can. Unfortunately COVID-19 has stopped our ability to do this as we have been forced to close for a large part of the year, however, prior to the pandemic everyone enjoyed โ€˜Tea & Tiaraโ€™ fundraising days at the salon, and our stylist & wig specialist, Maggie previously ran the Anglesey Half Marathon and raised an amazing ยฃ710! The team are looking forward to the future where we can have these atmospheric fundraiser days again, enjoying some homemade cake, a cuppa and a natter with you and all for a good cause.

Hair Donations

Did you know that as well as monetary donations, you can also donate your hair to Little Princess Trust? When someone has a dramatic restyle, we love to encourage people to donate hair so that LPT can continue to provide human hair wigs to those who need it most. We will even send the donation off for you and arrange a certificate of thanks from LPT.
