On the 12th of March 2022, all my hair was shaved off to raise funds for Endo Warriors Aotearoa.
A HUGE thank you to everyone who supported and donated to this cause :)
Youtube video to follow in the coming days :)
With gratitude and love,

Hi all,
I will be cutting off over 50cm of hair to send to Freedom Hair wig makers. They will then donate the monetary value of the hair to Endo Warriors Aotearoa.

Just over a day to go before the big shave! :)
Hi all,
44 days to go!
I am removing my target goal of $4000 - regardless I will be shaving my head with a number 0.
I'm very grateful for people's generosity, especially for a disease I know many of you have never heard of.
Much love and thanks,
Mel
Hi everyone,
I've been absolutely humbled at the outpouring of generosity - and it's only the first week of my 2022 Shave for Endometriosis. To all of you have donated thus far, thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
According to the NHS, Endometriosis is one of the Top Twenty most painful conditions a person can have, along with a heart attack. Having daily flare-ups with pain so severe that impact the entire body makes every single day feel like an uphill battle.
Many of you who have donated will not have heard of Endometriosis until you came to my page. I appreciate you taking the time to donate, and I urge you to educate yourself on this disease. 1 in every 10 people has it - and that's far too many people we know to suffer from a whole body disease.
To hit the goal of <= $4000, I'm going to leave the fate of my level of baldness in the hands of those who donate.
If the donations reach $2000 or below, I'll do a number 2 shave;
If the donations reach $2000.01 to $3999.99, I'll do a number 1 shave;
If the donations reach $4000 and over, I'll get a number 0 shave.
Thankfully March is still a bit warm in New Zealand if we reach this target :)
Once again, thank you to each and every one of you for supporting me and Endo Warriors Aotearoa :)
Love and thanks,
Mel
