The Wigging: Breast cancer patient shaves head before chemo hair loss

Allison Bender was literally born with a full head of dark curls -- so when she was diagnosed with breast cancer, she decided to take control of hair loss as a result of chemotherapy. Before her second round of treatment in July 2014, Allison visited Eivind and Hans of Georgetown Salon and Spa in Washington, D.C.. Here, she donated 24 inches of hair to the non-profit Wigs for Kids and was fitted for two wigs of her own. #AmazonWithin #FightLikeAGirl
