Atlanta's Big Chop

I'm chopping my hair and need your help!

I decided to make a difference by cutting and donating my hair to be made into a wig for someone who has lost their hair due to a medical condition.

I'll be chopping off 40cms on 9 September.

Wigs cost families up to $6,000, lasting 1-2 years, meaning families can spend tens of thousands of dollars on the purchase of wigs throughout a child’s youth. By making a donation to Variety - the Children's Charity, you can help provide a wig or other vital equipment to a child in need. Thank you for helping kids in need.

My Updates

Why am I doing this?

Saturday 1st Aug
I’ve had long hair most of my life. 
I’m ready for a change. 
Seemed wasteful to just cut it all off and throw it in the compost. 
Thankfully I stopped dying my hair 5 years ago so I am eligible to donate my hair for a wig. 

Thanks for all the support

Good on you. Janette has a large bald patch due to radiation therapy she’s recently had. This is an awesome cause as long hair is truly a part of a person’s identity.
