A ‘HAIR-OIC’ Port teenager is shaving ALL of her hair off for charity.

Brave Nicole Mason will lose all 26 inches of her lovely locks when she gets a ‘number one’ headshave next month.

The 15-year-old, who attends Port Glasgow High School, says the heartbreak she experienced when she lost her nana Ann Miller to bone marrow cancer four years ago is the motivation behind her challenge.

She will donate her hair to the Little Princess Trust — a charity that makes wigs and hairpieces for children who are having cancer treatment.

Nicole, of Marloch Avenue, told the Tele: “I’ve always had long hair and I think the last time I got it cut quite short was when I was about four.

“I decided to do this in memory of my nana.

“I want to help children going through chemotherapy who lose their hair.

“The Little Princess Trust helps them by making wigs from people’s hair donations.”

Nicole’s mum Ann says she’s overwhelmed that her daughter would go to such lengths to help young children going through cancer.

She said: “I feel so proud of her. I think it’s an amazing thing to do, especially in this day and age when girls are focused on their make-up and are always doing their hair.

“Nicole has been wanting to do this since her nana died.

“She was a big part of Nicole’s life.”

Ann is keen to thank all her colleagues at the Co-op in Bishopton for donating £160 and her colleagues at Ladbrokes in Dubbs Road for raising £100 for her daughter’s charity challenge.

She is also keen to thank her son Alan’s former colleagues at the RBS Mortgage Centre in Greenock for donating £76.

Nicole, who has also raised about £120 through her online fundraising page, will lose her locks on Saturday November 5 at the Service Hair and Beauty Salon in Dubbs Road in Port Glasgow.
