Look Good, Feel Better Project

"Look Good, Feel Better" project provides beauty treatment to cancer patients

The 'Look Good, Feel Better'® project was initiated and led by the late Dr. Francine Robinson (PhD), as a volunteer, and is part of an international project founded in the U.S. As part of the project, cancer patients are given beauty treatments, makeovers, and hair styling. All cosmetologists and stylists volunteer their services in cancer treatment wards, hospital outpatient wards, and ICA branches in the community.

Some 85 beauticians and estheticians are part of the project and provide services to more than 4,000 women and men across Israel.
The service is currently offered in 30 medical centers around the country and in the community.
The purpose of this project is to provide patients coping with cancer with beauty treatments that will improve their overall feeling, help them cope with the side effects of the treatments, such as dryness of skin, paleness and hair loss, while making their time pleasant by offering a pampering, relaxing treatment.
About 20 workshops are held each year for mothers of children with cancer and women with cancer at ICA branches across the country and in oncology units at the various medical centers.
The project volunteers also meet up for team building, empowerment and passing on professional instructions.
