00:00 Here we go, woah, look at that, oh my gosh.
00:04 Oh my God.
00:06 That didn't take long.
00:16 No, mate.
00:18 Any felt drops now with the half one through?
00:21 You want to die over the top.
00:25 Some of them are chasing there as well.
00:27 Have you changed your mind yet?
00:30 It's a bit late now.
00:33 Alright.
00:35 I'm good, keep going.
00:37 Why don't you tell us why you're doing it?
00:39 So many people's lives are affected by cancer
00:42 and people who have cancer and go through treatment
00:45 lose their hair, typically.
00:47 They have no choice.
00:48 I'm doing this through choice to raise awareness
00:51 and to raise money for a great cause
00:54 which is Macmillan Cancer Support.
00:56 So I'm brave and brave.
00:58 I've never supported this life before.
01:00 To, I'd say, promote that cause
01:04 and to recognise people who have to deal with this awful disease.
01:10 And yeah, many friends, many family affected.
01:16 And you've already raised quite a bit of money, haven't you?
01:18 Hopefully a bit more will come after this.
01:20 I'm hoping that people will continue to support
01:23 me and friends and my great neighbours who are here.
01:26 That's well done, neighbours.
01:28 Have raised a lot of money already, so I'm hoping that
01:31 with your support we can get more people raising money.
01:34 Wow, that's quite a severe look.
01:37 It's a good look, you'll wear it well.
01:39 It's fine looking, yeah?
01:40 Yeah, actually.
01:42 It's alright.
01:46 It's not, it's very grey.
01:50 It's darker than the blonde. What happened to my blonde hair?
01:53 Yeah, exactly. If you want a colour change,
01:55 you should let it grow out.
01:58 Don't colour it as it gets younger.
02:02 A friend of mine did, so she'd always been white under there
02:05 for many years and then she'd take it all short.
02:09 Not this short, but then she'd let it grow out.
02:12 It's a glitch.
02:14 I'm scanning my hair to see if it's colouring the sun,
02:17 so see what happens to it.
02:19 I think you've got a nice shape.
02:21 Oh, thank you very much.
02:23 You can get your bum stepped out.
02:27 See what both parts have got, what's going on.
02:31 My hair grows out really strong when it comes back through.
02:35 It certainly is, it's a new, fresh cut.
02:39 Don't go about necessarily pick your own range of work.
02:43 I wonder how curly it's going to be.
02:45 Because my hair curls, apparently anyway.
02:47 I wonder whether when it's short it's going to be a lot curlier.
02:51 It grows quickly.
02:53 I've got a bunch of it.
02:55 You've got a bunch of it.
02:57 You like it?
02:59 You're doing yours as well.
03:01 [Laughter]
03:05 Thank you.
03:07 You're welcome.
03:09 You see your face, Steve?
03:13 [Laughter]
03:21 It'll be a strange experience.
03:25 I mean, as a youngster, it was typically short.
03:27 It took me about two, three days to stop feeling my hair moving.
03:31 Like a pencil behind your ear when you take it away.
03:35 It's so much quicker than the shower.
03:37 Exactly.
03:39 It's like a little paper clip or a tight pencil.
03:43 That's pretty quick.
03:49 Yep.
03:51 That's it.
