Hair Donation Program UNice x Matter Of Trust: Let's Save Our Planet!!!

Last updated Jun 30, 2024

UNice Hair is excited to announce our partnership with @matteroftrust to support environmental conservation efforts. Hair For All, Hair For Earth! Recycling for a Sustainable Future.

Did you know that most human hair wigs have a lifespan of just one year or two years? But instead of throwing them away, you can now recycle them and make a positive impact on our planet! Through our collaboration, UNice Hair will donate hair to Matter of Trust to help clean up oil spills and protect our oceans. We are also committed to establishing a channel to collect and recycle used hair extensions or processed wigs giving you the opportunity to give back to our planet and earn rewards at the same time.

Join us in taking action for our planet and future generations. Together, we can create a sustainable future for our planet and oceans. Let's make a difference today!

What is Hair Donation?

Hair donation involves individuals willingly cutting off their hair and sending it to organizations that specialize in creating wigs for people experiencing hair loss. The donated hair is used to make wigs for cancer patients, individuals with alopecia, and others who have lost their hair due to medical conditions or treatments.
