Hello world, just done the BraveTheShave
« on: August 30, 2018, 12:33:53 AM »
Hi guys, I’ve been sly before, but it just lasted the first shave and then grew back.  I was itching to get back to bald so decided to do the #BraveTheShave with a twist. The more people sponsored the longer I stay bald.  I started with £250 target for shaving immediately, then £500 to be bald until Christmas and £1000 to be bald for a year and £2000 to be bald for two years. 

As I have a full head of hair, it would have caused lots of questions on why I’d shaved off all my hair, so rather than saying I wanted to, I could say it was a sponsored bald situation for a cancer charity, and objections are instantly quashed.  So far with sponsorship and pledges I’ve reached over £1300. So I’m bald for a year (after then people will just know me as the bald guy) so I can continue with the shaving and style without argument.

If anyone wants to sponsor me, I’ve got a day left of sponsorship.  Links below, the brave the share link is only available for payments if you live in the. UK

There is a video of my shave down and cut throat shave on the BraveTheShave link.

In the mean time hi there guys from a committed bald for a year guy.

Well done.  Once you have shaved for a year I doubt whether you will grow it back.  Look good.
