Shaving my head for Mental Health

My hair has always been my identifier, people have always commented on it and I have put a lot of time, effort (and money) into making it look as good as possible. Shaving my head is for me a way of showing my friends and family how far I am prepared to go for this cause. I have thought about doing it for years (the idea first came to me whilst surfing in Cornwall in 2010.) The idea of completely removing my main feature and being a more raw, exposed version of myself was always appealing, as well as, a little terrifying. Shedding my hair is a symbol of shedding ones skin and putting myself out there, something I know first hand that those with mental health may struggle to do. I hope through my actions I can inspire or help those who need it in some small way.
