Bald is the New Trend for 2010 and March 13th is the day! You can shave your head or donate your hair, either way helps to raise money for children here in Las Vegas with Cancer and Life Threatening Diseases.
14"...see the difference?. 
OK, I'm not shaving my head, but I am cutting 10+ INCHES off of my hair to donate to Locks of Love and to help raise money for the Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation. The NCCF is near and dear to my heart because one of my own daughters has a life threatening disease and we have benefited greatly from some of the services that they provide. I am collecting donations/pledges, if you are interested in helping me out please call me 702-630-7283. If you just want to come and watch me chop off most of my hair, here is your chance!!! See ya at Town Square on March 13thfrom 10am-1pm!
