Hairdresser turns hand to wig making

They say that out of the dark cometh light. And for Toni Astbury from Darlaston it did.

The 24-year-old hairdresser reached the depths of depression three years ago when first diagnosed with alopecia.

But it was all down to her hair falling out that triggered a new venture.

Toni enrolled on the Prince's Trust enterprise programme where she pitched her business ideas to a Dragon's Den style panel. So impressed were the panel of judges, they instantly awarded Toni a grant of £4,000 to set up her wig business.
