Lauren Conrad's brunette wig (from the Harper's Bazaar shoot) was donated to a girl with cancer

US Weekly Dishes:

Celeb stylist Ken Paves donated the wig he made for Lauren Conrad's Harper's Bazaar shoot to a young woman suffering from cancer.

"Last weekend, I flew to Detroit to give the wig to Emily Lisner, who has lymphoma," Paves -- who also works with Jessica Simpson and Eva Longoria Parker -- tells Usmagazine.com. "And Lauren filmed a message on my Flip cam.

"She was so, so excited," Paves says of the bobbed-wig. "We had an amazing time. It was such an incredible, inspiring situation. I then cut the wig in her house to really customize it for her, give it some bangs. Her mom was just laughing."

Paves -- who also brought a signed copy of Conrad's new book, Hard Candy -- calls Lisner "inspiring. It's great to give a gift to somebody who also gives back to so many people."

He plans to stay in touch with Lisner and help her sell bracelets on his Web site.

"I love what I do so much, but it's nice to have a greater meaning, to stand for something more," Paves tells Us.
