It's official… Alan Jones is stepping in and shaving his head in replacement of me 🔥 🥹
After I had to sadly cancel my Greatest Shave due to medical advice after reviewing my psoriasis scalp skin condition that flared up badly, Alan offered to stand in for me and get his head shaved.
Just like that. No fuss. Just heart.
So together we’re fundraising until July for the Leukaemia Foundation to raise money for those suffering from blood cancer.
This is the best plot-twist we could’ve ever asked for. I’m so grateful.

Alan, you’re a legend. Thank you for showing us what community really looks like.
Using my 1 big life to make other lives better 🧡
UPDATE: Due to a chronic scalp skin condition, my doctor has recommended against the shave to prevent further skin trauma. Sadly we've had to cancel my shave.
HOWEVER - Alan Jones has reached out and offered to shave his head on my behalf. So we're organising a new fundraiser event on July 2025. Thank you for your understanding.
All money donated goes directly and instantly to the Lukemia Foundation. Thank you for supporting the cause.
Life can be tough. This is my way of giving back to the world and contributing where I can. Will you contribute too?
Together we can raise thousands of dollars for the Leukaemia Foundation.
Both my Grandads passed from Lukemia too.
Whilst both my grandads are gone now, many still live and face the devastating impact of blood cancer, with 17 losing their life every day.
By donating to my page, you’ll help me raise funds and awareness for blood cancer. The money raised goes towards valuable research and support services for patients and their loved ones.
Any amount – big or small – will make a difference.
Thanks for contributing to this wild ride we call LIFE.
Thanks for having your say

New Update
Monday 9th Jun
Wow. Something beautiful has happened. I didn’t expect this next part of the Greatest Shave journey…
After I shared that I had to cancel my shave on medical advice due to a chronic scalp skin condition, something beautiful happened…
⓵ More people donated to the cause, despite no shave happening.
⓶ My inbox has been FLOODED with supportive messages (thank you).
But that’s not all…
⓷ 𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗼𝗻 𝗺𝘆 𝗯𝗲𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗳.
Yep. A total act of generosity, solidarity, and sheer heart. 🧡
So it’s happening.
This NEW legend will be shaving their head for the same reason we started: to raise funds and awareness for those living with blood cancer.
Can you guess who it is?!
We’ll share more details soon…
$5365 raised in 10 days.
Stay tuned for who it is or donate to feel great:

Greatest Shave Update After Medical Advice with My Scalp Psoriasis
Monday 9th Jun
I'm devastated. We had to cancel the Greatest Shave as sadly my chronic skin condition (scalp psoriasis & eczema) has flared up badly. I received medical advice from my doctor to cancel the shave to prevent further skin trauma & irritation 💔 I’m exploring other ways to honour this journey once my skin has calmed down.
That said, we hit our goal & raised $5k in 10 days for the Lukemia Foundation and that money is already supporting those with blood cancer and their loved ones.
I'm so grateful for your support & understanding on this roller coaster🎢
This decision reminds me that strength doesn’t always look the way we expect it to.
I’m learning that part of being brave is also honouring my health when it needs care.
Thank you for standing with me, not just when it’s easy, but when it’s real.
So whilst I don't have a photo of a shaved head to share... 🫠
I'm now sharing behind the scenes of my skin journey to hopefully normalise that it's ok to not be ok 24/7 and to put your health first.
