Heads shaved at three venues

Heads were shaved and coloured at three venues in Woy Woy for the Leaukemia Foundation's "World's Greatest Shave for a Cure" between March 10 and 12.

Shaving events took place at Deepwater Plaza, Gnostic Mana, and the Peninsula Plaza.

"There were heaps of shaves and colours. It was a great event," said Mr Oliver Adams of Just Cuts, Deepwater Plaza.

Woy Woy Deepwater Plaza management also raised some money for the cause during the event.

"It was really really good," said Mr Tony Turner of Deepwater Plaza.

"Between the volunteers and the donations, we raised about $1000."

At Gnostic Mana, Sharna from Gold De Locks donated her time to shave the hair of Peninsula News reporter Lyle Stone, raising almost $100 in the process.

Brian McGowan, a member of Woy Woy Little Theatre, helped convince Laycock St Theatre, Wyong Drama Group, Woy Woy Little Theatre and Gosford Musical Society to donate more than $1000.

Roughly $250 was donated from each group, with another $91 being raised at the event, held at Laycock Street Theatre.

"Some people even tried to pay me to keep the hair," Mr McGowan said.
