Cancer patients’ experience from their disease is extraordinary.. because unlike any other minor sickness, cancer slowly and painfully kills them, not only physically, but mentally and emotionally. But in order to treat it minimally, cancer patients undergo chemotherapy and through this destruction of cancer cells, cancer patients loses their hair tragically leaving them bald.
Awful, isn’t it? Because of their appearance being bald, some of the cancer patients tend to cover their head whenever they are in public. So, to strengthen up their hope and integrity in life, a wonderful organization called Henna Heals offers these cancer patients a beautiful way to overcome their hair loss by creating awesome henna crowns in their bare heads.
The henna paste used in Henna Heals is homemade with 100% all-natural ingredients, and unlike tattoos, henna doesn’t pierce on skin, no needles involved and it’s not permanent; however, it will lasts a few weeks and can’t be washed out easily.
Canadian founder Frances Darwin says, “For cancer patients, the henna crowns really are a healing experience. This is all about them reclaiming a part of themselves that would normally be perceived as ill or damaged or not nice to look at and making it more feminine and beautiful.”
Because of this, cancer patients are more proud and loved themselves even more!
