Our partnership with Fake Hair Don’t Care

The Fake Hair Don’t Care Organization

Based in France, this association was created in 2016. Since then, it has been collecting hair donations to produce personalized wigs for cancer patients. As such, it contributes to the well-being of those suffering.
With the collected natural hair, wigmakers are able to create totally customized wigs. The non-profit organization offers unique pieces whose price is calculated based on the family quotient of each person.

Caring for your hair isn’t a selfish act!

At René Furterer, we have been helping you to care for your scalp and hair daily for 60 years. Having beautiful, shiny hair is what you expect from our hair care products.
Today, we’re giving you an even more important reason to take care of your hair: to donate it to another woman who can regain her femininity, adorned with a magnificent wig of natural hair.

Would you like to donate some of your hair?

Thank you for your commitment!
We are launching this operation as part of Breast Cancer Awareness Month 2022, in partnership with our hairdressers. 
Ideally, you should let your hair grow to a length of at least 10 centimeters. 
The hair grows one centimeter a month on average, so it's time to start growing your hair now!
