Welcome to my new hair
my new hair is the pioneering new charity founded by and inspired by Trevor Sorbie MBE.
We provide public advice, and support a national network of independent salons and professionals who provide a wig styling service for people suffering from cancer and medical hair loss. Importantly, each of these professionals have approached us personally. They pledge their commitment to responsible training and provide a caring and respectful service for their clients.

"mynewhair is such a simple idea I can't believe that nobody thought of it before! I have witnessed time and time again what an incredible confidence boost a positive body image can give to a woman, simple styling tips that can empower them. For many women their hair is their crowning glory and what makes them feel feminine above everything else. I think that helping women with medical hair loss take their first steps towards looking and ultimately feeling themselves again is just fantastic - Go Trevor!"
