Shave your hair for CANSA this weekend

Show solidarity with those affected by cancer

THE 16th national CANSA Shavathon, independently managed by CANSA staff and volunteers will take place at Bluff Towers on Saturday, 2 March as well as at Groomsman Salon at Bluff Hillside Mall on Sunday, 3 March.

CANSA Shavathon is one of South Africa’s best-loved events in support of a very worthy cause, namely showing solidarity with those affected by cancer.

Losing one’s hair is a common side-effect of cancer therapy – so shaving your head has become a symbolic gesture of support for cancer survivors.

Colouring your hair or paying a bail-out fee are options for those who prefer not to shave, or who can’t shave on the day.

For those who like to be actively engaged and to make a difference, Shavathon embraces volunteers. Their support is invaluable.
