Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my Hair Today Gone Tomorrow page.

I heard an advert for Brave to Shave and thought it was the challenge I needed.  I'm fed up with washing, drying, cutting and colouring my hair and generally all the time and faff it entails. So thought if I can get out of that for a couple of months and raise some money for the hospice that was ready to look after my Dad, then it was the thing to do. 

Your hair is your crowning glory and it's not something women of my age would usually do out of choice, but as my partner said "there's no reason not to".  So I'm hoping you'll support me in doing something mad and brave. 

The big day is Thursday 25th August and I may even live stream the deed, and no, I'm most definitely not shaving it myself!
