“I’m going to make you attractive,” said Mika Hill, looking at the 21 of the woman sitting before her.The women once had long, 22 , dark hair.But alopecia(禿頭癥) had 23 her just a little of it.Hill, a wig(假發(fā)) maker, was about to change that.
At 30, Hill knows from experience how a woman feels when she 24 her hair.Her own hair fell out several years ago 25 a lack of iron after giving birth.“I cried when I washed it, when I combed it, and when I looked in the 26 ,” she says.Then she bought a wig.“It was too small,” she says, “but my 27 went up greatly.”
Hill enrolled(注冊) in a wig-making 28 in New York.Back home with what she learned, she started making wigs that she planned to 29 for $300 each.
But many of her customers with alopecia and cancer couldn’t 30 that much, and their health insurance often didn’t 31 the cost.So Hill started giving the wigs away, eventually spending $10,000 of her own money.Last year, she and her friend Lita Warren 32 Pink Barrette, a non-profit organization that has 33 about 60 wigs to poor women.
Hill pays 34 the donations with profits from her other products. 35 , she and her husband have also spent much of their savings keeping the organization running.
Hill’s customers can’t thank her enough.Elyssa Montoya was too 36 to be seen in public with her 37 thinning hair.“I didn’t feel I could show my bald head outside.Thanks to Mika, I now have beautiful hair, and feel 38 about myself again.”
“Seeing their self-confidence 39 after they try on their wigs,” says Hill, “brings 40 to my eyes.This is a job for me, and a most rewarding one.”
