Rich Fiacco's long hair is the result of two years of growth, but its impact will have an impact for years to come for a special someone.
The Salt River Project employee got a long-overdue haircut Wednesday which will be donated to a non-profit organization that serves pediatric cancer patients. Patients who are interested can receive wigs after losing their hair during cancer treatments.
His thoughtful act is a tribute to his late mother, who he lost to cancer when she was just shy of 59 years old.
He enlisted the help of his daughter, a cosmetologist, for tips on how to care for his hair so it would be in the best shape possible when it came time to donate it to be made into a wig.
In the video player above, ABC15's Jordan Bontke talks with Fiacco about the experience as well as a recipient of a wig created with the help of another gracious donor.
