About the Project

What is
DobraPeruka?

Hair loss during treatment is a profound emotional challenge.

Our goal is to support people and help them regain their confidence, dignity, and smile during a difficult time in their lives.

The project combines creating new wigs from donated hair with restoring and reusing donated wigs, so we can help more people going through treatment.

With the support of donors and partners, we provide wigs free of charge to vulnerable individuals undergoing cancer treatment.

Your hair can change someone's life.

Wigs are provided free of charge through KOC or directly to people from vulnerable groups.

How to Become a Donor

Donating hair is easy and takes just a few steps.

  • Minimum length: 30 cm — from the cut point to the tips
  • Hair must be clean and dry before sending
  • No severe damage
  • Dyed and grey hair is accepted
  • Tie your hair in a ponytail or braid it
  • Cut above the elastic band — not below it
  • Place in a clean bag or box
  • You may include a short note with your name and email address so we can send you a thank-you certificate.

I sent it via an Econt office. It's a bit thin, but I hope that's not a problem. I hope it helps — I would be so happy!
