Lydia's Big Chop

I'm chopping my hair and need your help!

I’ve made the decision to take the big chop and change lives!

Variety – the Children’s Charity supports kids who are sick, experiencing disadvantage or living with a disability.

I will be donating my hair to help provide a wig to someone who has lost their hair, as well as raising vital funds for kids in need.

Every gift, no matter the amount, makes a difference.

Thank you for your support!

My Updates

Big Chop is done!

Wednesday 6th Dec
Hi everyone, 
The hair has been sent off to find a new home with someone in need. We won't receive a final product update unfortunately as the wigs are made up of several other donations. Thanks again everyone, I'll do a final count of donations later this week. 

An amazing response!

My gosh, I am so overwhelmed by the response this has recieved.  Thank you everyone for your kindness, support and generosity. 
We have successfully met the goal of $750  which covers the cost of one child recieving a wig through the program. And in only 5 days!
For anyone still wanting to donate please continue to do so as the funds will still be supporting the program and could potentially fund another wig recipient! ❤️

Once again, thank you everyone. You are such wonderful people 😊

Its finally going!

Hi all! 
It's been approximately 5 years since my last hair cut so I have a lot of hair to give! On the 6th of December I will be donating between 40-45cm of my hair to Variety - the children's charity program 'Hair with Heart'. The program supports the creation and distribution of specialised wigs for children who have lost their hair due to medical reasons, which can cost up to $6000 and last only a few years. You can read more about it here: Wigs - Variety

Thanks for all the support
