Strength in Style

1 in 3 of us will get cancer. Two million people in the UK are living with it. From March 2010, TONI&GUY and Macmillan will be working in partnership to improve the lives of people affected by cancer through fund raising and Strength in Style – a training programme for TONI&GUY and Essensuals salons to offer expert hair care for people affected by cancer.

Hair loss can have a really devastating impact on people going through cancer treatment. The relationship between a person and their hairdresser is extremely personal so we at TONI&GUY feel that we have the opportunity to give back. We want to help clients affected by cancer through this difficult experience by providing them with one point of contact who is able to offer practical help and advice - from the moment their hair starts to fall out to the moment it grows back.

Available from Spring 2010 in selected TONI&GUY and essensuals salons nationwide, Strength in Style salons will provide specialist support and advice on hair care for people affected by cancer. Selected hair stylists will be trained in the effects of treatment on hair, helping clients with choosing, fitting, adjusting and cutting wigs, and advice on re-growth hair so that people affected by cancer can have one point of contact to help them deal with hair loss and re-growth throughout their cancer journey.
