Michelle Caplin, 31, of Westland Avenue, Tarring had 12 inches of hair cut off at The Spa in Lancing to give to the Little Princess Trust.

Michelle said: “Sitting in the chair felt so emotional, after 5 years of building up to that moment and knowing how much that little girl will appreciate it. I am thrilled at how Sarah Norman from The Spa cut my hair and she has done amazing with the colouring. I love it.”

As well as donating her hair she has also raised £540.20 to put towards the production cost of the wig which can can cost the charity as much as £2,000.

Michelle said she missed her hair but had no regrets when she thought of the smiling little girl she would be helping.
