Washington, Oct 28 (ANI): American actress Hilary Swank has made an appeal to women to cut off their hair, and donate them to a charity that makes wigs for women with cancer.
Swank donated her own hair after chopping them off for her role as aviator Amelia Earheart in a new movie.
She is now campaigning for Beautiful Lengths to encourage other women to make a contribution, by giving their hair to those who lose it when they undergo chemotherapy.
