Blainey’s Big Chop

By Alex Blain

Hair We Go

I never thought I'd be donating my follicles, but hair we are. Two years ago I began growing my hair out. It didn't start as anything special, more of a novelty than anything else. Every day I'd wake up with longer hair than I'd ever had before. 
Before long, the thought of just getting it cut didn't feel worth it. I'd never had hair this long, I felt it merited a cause and the fight against cancer is one of the most worthwhile causes there is. 
That's why I am donating my hair. If my hair can be made into a wig and can give one person with cancer a boost, it will have been worth it. 

I’m fundraising for Cancer Council Victoria to help stop cancer.

Every year more than 35,000 Victorians hear the words ‘you have cancer’.

Thanks in part to generous Victorians, 7 in 10 of them will survive five years after a cancer diagnosis, but there’s still so much work to be done.

Cancer Council needs our support more than ever this year. Every dollar raised gives hope for a cancer free future. By supporting my event, you’re funding life-saving cancer treatments, prevention programs, and support services that ensure no one has to face cancer alone.
