Shave for a cause

Matt Brown

Hairdressers got in front of the clippers last week to raise money for the Breast Cancer Foundation NZ.

Forgoing the usual style, the pair shaved off the lot in a bid to raise vital funds for the cancer charity.

Cutz on Weld owner Toni-Marie Robinson and hairdresser Sheree Watson sacrificed their locks for the cause, Shave for Boobs.

An auction, Givealittle and the head shave raised about $3500.

Toni says it’s a cause close to her heart, having lost both her parents to cancer.

“It’s something small we can do to give back to the community,” she says.

“Our clients have really supported it.”
