Corey's Big Chop

I'm chopping my hair!

I have made the decision 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 the entire ponytail. Which at last measurement was 16 inches. I have given myself the deadline of September but am aiming to cut it sooner. I hate brushing it. 

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.

IT’S DONE

Hair is gone. You can still donate. You can still not. No dramas legends.  

FINALLY

Wednesday 16th Jun

After many years of wanting to donate my hair the time has finally come! It has been close before, but the upkeep of long hair and the heat during summer got too much and I cut it before it reached the required length. But here we are! At last measure, I had 16 inches of ponytail to chop with the minimum being about 14 inches. Everyone that knows me, knows that I’m quite proud of my mane and it has really become a part of my identity. Not the coolest thing to be known for, but certainly not the worst. I tossed up whether or not to put this out there as a fundraiser because I was happy to do this quietly. But after much thought, I’m likely to only do this once (the hairline is getting away from me) so why not raise a bit of money as well. No obligation from anyone to donate, but all donations big or small are incredibly appreciated by the families and children that Variety help out. Thank you for taking the time to visit the page and read this paragraph. You’re all awesome. 

Thanks for all the support
