From hair to bare for 3 good causes

Some of you that know me know I really dislike having long hair. And yet some of you will only have known me with long hair! That makes no sense! Well I’ve been growing my hair for the past few years just for this.

Some of you also know that I’ve done Shave for a Cure before, well this time the intention is not only thankfully return to short hair but most importantly, donate my hair to help make wigs.

After 3 odd years of long hair, as I was getting excited about shaving my hair off, I found out that the one place in NZ which accepts hair donations for wig making purposes can not work with mixed coloured hair ie. my greys!!!! After all this time….aaarrrghhh!!!

However, after a little research I have discovered that my greying hair can be used by Hair Collect www.haircollect.com who send hair off to Uganda to make wigs. These wigs not only have the power to give new life to a person but help transform communities through employment. Such a win-win all round.
