Скачать или смотреть My Brave The Shave for McMillian

For me having long hair has always been something to hide behind. Something that allows me to feel comfortable with myself and who I am. 

I decided to take part in the Brave The Shave campaign for two reasons. First cancer is something that has affected me. Not directly, but it has affected someone who means so much to me.

He fought it and beat it thankfully but it has drastically altered not only his life but those of us that who see and interact with him daily. 

The second is I have always felt like someone who has ever has had to deal with cancer faces ends up with the feeling that they are no longer comfortable in themselves. That they are not who they think of themselves anymore. Something about them is not right. 

Shaving my head scares me. The idea is really uncomfortable. I know that doing it will translate into me not being comfortable with myself. While it is not the same as what they go through it is the closest thing I can do to put myself in the same kind of position.

I want to thank Laura, from Ash Hair in Lisburn, for shaving my head along with everyone else there for being a part of my experience.
