A new nonprofit, Kiki's Haus, is providing free hair services for youth and young adults experiencing illness-induced hair loss.Founder and hairstylist Kendra Dinius noticed the need when her friend Melissa Nino's daughter, Valentina Ramirez, was diagnosed with T-Cell Leukemia, a rare form of Leukemia, two years ago.Ramirez's first question: 'Am I going to lose my hair?'Dinius, a long time friend of theirs, stepped in.
'I love my job and I love making people happy and feel good about themselves, and that's kind of where Kiki's Haus was born,' Dinius said.Even though she only began providing services through Kiki's Haus in May, she has seen a strong demand with three to four clients per week.Dinius, who has worked with clients as young as 6 years old, said they are now working on a way to create custom wigs for petite heads.'These wigs don't fit perfectly,' Dinius said.
