"Every day I'm a brave girl, receiving treatment for leukaemia."

🥹 Wilston State School rallied around their friend and fellow student, Alia, who shaved her head ahead of her next treatment for blood cancer 🩸

"I see so many kids each week when I go to hospital, going through very tough things like me.

"I'll lose my hair soon, so I might as well do it for a good cause and with the encouragement from my friends and family.

"Let's raise awareness and funds together so that the treatments keep getting better and better."

Alia's school smashed their previous record, raising almost $50,000 to support Australians impacted by blood cancer - just like her 🩵

Thank you to the incredible Wilston community for your support for Alia and the thousands of schoolchildren across Australia fighting blood cancer 👩‍🦲💪

"Dad was diagnosed after doctors discovered a golf ball-sized tumour just 1mm from his brain."

🩸 Mel still remembers how much her dad's Hodgkin lymphoma diagnosis affected her family.

And it's the reason she decided to cut and donate her hair to Sustainable Salons ✂️

🗣️ "I’ve always had long hair. I always thought that if I decided to cut it again, I wanted to make sure it could help someone else.

"It was definitely emotional. My hair had been part of my identity for a long time, so it was a big change!

"But I’m really proud to have turned something so personal into a way of giving back, and it gave me the opportunity to raise funds to support other people affected by blood cancer."

Thankfully, after a year of chemotherapy, her dad went into remission and has been cancer-free for two decades now 💙

The meaning behind this mohawk is beautiful 👇🥹

Melbourne siblings Reuben, Ambrose and Ava shaved their heads in honour of their beloved nanny Colleen, who they lost to non-Hodgkin lymphoma in 2018.

"Nanny was the ultimate glue to the family. All my memories of her are the purest, most joyful and loving memories I could ever possess." 💙

In the lead-up, with the help of Frank Ciccone, Reuben turned heads by cutting, shaving, and colouring a bold mohawk to spark conversations and raise more funds 👨‍🎤

The trio, known as Team RAVA, hosted their shave at their local pub, where the community showed up in full force.

With live music, including a performance from Reuben’s band, they created a night that celebrated their nanny while supporting those facing blood cancer 🎸

Together, they raised over $7,000 for life-changing research and support services!

🚌 Introducing 'Sheila', our first-ever Shave Shuttle!

She drove over 800kms across three days from Adelaide to Melbourne - making sure to stop by many 'giant' landmarks - and can't wait for the next adventure to visit regional communities.

Unofficial Shuttle Driver (but officially one of our Youth Reps), Nicholas Clark, summed up Sheila best...

🗣️ "We want to reach regional communities across Australia. We want to help them run Shave events because blood cancer affects everyone.

"Also, is it just me or are the Giant Koala's eyes really creepy!?" 🐨

The Shave Shuttle is a fully equipped World’s Greatest Shave experience, delivered straight to your school.

Where should our Shave Shuttle drive to next?

🫧 "Washing our heads for the first time was crazy, we used too much shampoo and ended up with bubbles everywhere!"

Peta and Charlotte braved the shave and raised $1000+ for Australians impacted by blood cancer, and donated 44cm of hair to Sustainable Salons 💇‍♀️

At first, they were both a little nervous and excited. But once the first plait was cut, there was no going back!

"Feeling our hair for the first time was amazing, and walking outside and feeling the breeze on our scalp was something else!

"By donating my hair, I felt that I could make someone else smile. It's nice to think we can help others feel better about themselves.

"In the end, if we can make life a little easier for one person, it's a success to us." 👩‍🦲💙
