A woman who was offered a free haircut to tidy up her hair after chemotherapy has spoken out about how important the gesture was. Daxa Patel, 54, went to CL75 Hair Salon in Whitchurch, Cardiff looking to get her hair tidied up ahead of a wedding she was due to attend.
Her hair had only just started growing out "with a vengeance", following months of chemotherapy that had left her worried about leaving the house. She walked in expecting to be charged a few pounds for a few minutes' work, but was surprised at the hairdresser's amazing gesture.
She said: "I popped my head in asking whether they could tidy it up. Jordan was at the counter and Craig had a look, and said it wouldn't be a problem and he could do it for me straight away.
