The Heart Behind The Hats

Cindi, a talented and compassionate hairstylist, designed Hug A Heart Hats in 2015, while participating in the American Cancer Society’s Look Good, Feel Better Program. This program provides classes to help cancer patients tie scarves, select wigs and apply make-up. She soon realized that her new friends, who were experiencing hair loss, needed a better solution for head coverings. They often told her that wigs were uncomfortable, hot and irritated their tender heads. She also learned that scarves were not the best option because many of them easily slipped off their heads. The women also expressed their concerns about how their hair loss made their heads look too small for their bodies.

Cindi felt a tug on her heart and decided to find a solution for these problems. She believed these mothers, daughters and wives, who were going through a traumatic health experience, deserved to feel and look beautiful.

Upon Cindi’s request, her aunt Suzie taught her how to sew. She also gave her an antique Singer sewing machine, which belonged to Cindi’s grandmother. Cindi practiced sewing and in a true labor of love, she designed Hug A Heart Hats.
