Naomi’s Greatest Shave for the Leukemia Foundation

You hear about the shave stories, it’s not every day you get to witness one.

It has been a while now I admired Naomi’s long hair, not sure I was prepared to hear she was going to shave it off.

Then she informed us that each day, 35 Australians will be given the devastating news that they have blood cancer, and they’ll turn to the Leukaemia Foundation for help. So Naomi got her fund raising page and set the date for her shave, where she would donate her beautiful hair to someone who needed it.

So much hair requires some help!

They say the first cut is the deepest.

Naomi said she already felt one kilo lighter!

The ponytails all cut off, in one of the most beautiful gestures I will ever witness, Naomi hands over her ponytails, to be given to a person who has lost their hair due to cancer.

Her father gets in for a closer look as the shaving begins.

If you’d like to donate, her page is still taking donations for a short time.
