Head & Beard shave off ... after 5 years

Hey All,

If you have found your way here you either know me, know someone I know or are just really nosey.... Welcome. If you have got this far, then you should already be finding your wallet / card to donate to a great cause.

The start of 2025 has been a fairly tough one for my family loosing one family member to lung and bowel cancer and then some unexpected news about another member of the family with a cancer diagnosis. So my immediate thought is to try and do more / raise awareness for Cancer Research, I'm too fat to do a marathon and anything energetic at the moment so the next best option for me is to loose that, that i am most fond of and cause myself some pain in shaving my head and beard.

I have been growing my hair and beard and had long hair for the past 5 or so years and it will physically pain me to cut it off, but I am committed to doing something good, raising awareness, some needed funds for a good cause and charity.

I fully know how much of a moron i am going to look with no hair, I will have 43 chins and be pasty white but ultimately it will grow back ... I hope.

So If you can give a small amount to a good cause and to ease the pain of me doing this to myself it would be greatly appreciated.

The wonderful BigAl at The Barber Lounge Cosham has agreed to give me the chop and we will film it so everyone can see it happen. This will be around the 4th of March 2025, to give me time to grow out a bit and come to terms with what i have agreed to.

If you can all give The Barber Lounge a follow here that would be great and of course only give what you can, but I know most of you and your not short of a few pennies so cough it up.

Much love and kittens
