I know this is short notice to everyone.I posted up some time ago when we were all talking about beards, that I was going to be doing this fundraiser.
For those who may not be aware of this fundraiser, it's an annual event organised by the Leukaemia Foundation to raise money for those affected (directly or indirectly) by Leukaemia, Lymphoma, Myeloma and other related blood disorders. Current picture http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs466.snc3/25569_403016196280_731151280_5464445_1069813_n.jpg I also have a nice mop on top and a lengthy tail that is also getting the chop. I won't be going to the public events due to work hours and that. I will be going to my local TMH to get it all clipped off then getting cut throat on head and face. Will be going from one extreme to the other to fully support this cause. Following link is to my Donation Page If this link doesn't work, link in my signature should work. Cheers, Damo |

Awesome, man. I'd donate but I've already donated as much as my charity budget allows for this cause. Can't wait to see the pics though! Good luck! |

Haha I rate this thread. Your hair looks like a beret or something in the car photo. I want to know that the 'tail' was. Are we talking some sort of rat's tail hair appendage? You should settle on something a bit less extreme now, regardless dude the man-beast thing just has to stop! |

Tail was tail/mullet. Started growing it before beard shaved head so I looked like a bogan then let everything grow together to look very trashy and more metal.. Haha
blessing in disguise I can now see how slim my face has become since training with my PT. I'm liking this look and could get use to it. Easier to maintain when I get into RAAF and QPS. |

Haha, do it sparrow. You'd look good with a shaved head I reckon. I had a shaved head in Year 8. I have a weird-arse shape to my head so it's not a good look. Picture Dan Ackroyd in Coneheads. Flossy is always saying how she wants to shave her head (she has long hair) but no way, not on my watch. She just gets upset everytime I get out of the shower and I dry my hair in 2 secs, then she's still drying hers an hour later. http://i39.tinypic.com/2j5gvt1.jpg |

I've had short hair for a long time, until I decided to grow it back out this past year. It took 15 f***ing months to get it this long, it would take a lot of money for me to shave it off. I have actually considered this in the past though. Curiously, my partner actually had a dream about me shaving my head, and apparently it looked pretty good, so who knows! |

Harder for chicks cos you have to battle the dyke image. Easy for blokes, who cares ;-) You just reminded me about this U16 player last year that shaved her head. She fully looked like a boy, I s*** you not, and she's a pretty girl ordinarily too. I did a few double-takes wondering who it was after she shaved her head. |

Meh, I don't care about the dyke image. If that were ever going to happen, it would've in high school when I hated boys and slept with girls :P The main reason I've never done it is because it takes so long for it to grow back. |

Cutting now shaving ones hair doesn't come easy, especially if you grow attached to it(no pun intended).
But reason why i chopped the tail as well is because I have it bit luckier than those unfortunate enough to attract such diseases that i'm helping to support. Sparrow, not having a go but it may have taken 15months to get it back to where you wanted it, but think bout those who may never get it back or else.. It's hair, and fortunately for people like you and I it will grow back. (this post is not meant to sound negative, just on a high after shaving my head and concert I went to last night, full of life right now) |

Cutting now shaving ones hair doesn't come easy, especially if you grow attached to it(no pun intended). I appreciate the fact that I have it lucky, in that I a) have hair and b) don't have cancer. If I could raise enough money for it to be worthwhile contributing to cancer research, then I would definitely shave it, but I'm not a fundraiser, and as such, it's likely I would just be cutting it to show support, rather than doing something useful. I am very lucky to be healthy, but I see no reason to cut my hair just because sick people have theirs fall out. If there were a time when I would have done that, it would've been when my mum had chemo and no hair. |

Well done Damo. I did this a couple of years ago (same year Kat did it) and have kept my hair short ever since. I've made a donation care of your WGS linked page. Damo still needs a bunch more support to reach his goal guys, so dont be shy, make a donation FFS ! |
