16 years ago my Dad was diagnosed with a very rare form of Leukemia, and a life-long drug still keeps him in remission today. I have been growing my hair for 3 years to donate it for wigs for people who lose their hair during cancer treatment. Despite being bullied constantly about my hair, I kept growing it so that I can donate it and also raise money for the Leukemia and Blood Foundation of NZ so more research can be done to cure cancer. I am having my hair cut by Lush Hair in Silverdale on 13/09/22 and they will donate it for me. Thank you for supporting me.

He did it! His locks are chopped.  23 September 2022

I took the plunge last week and had all my hair cut off and donated for wigs for children with cancer or alopecia. I surpassed my $1000 target and reached a whopping $1600 which will be directly donated to Leukaemia & Blood Cancer New Zealand.

Thank you to everyone for your support. It has amazed me. Special thank you to Kerry Howard Photography for the pics, and Lush Hair Silverdale for donating my hair and hair cut.

With much love and appreciation,

Elliot Cameron
