Three men braved the shave at a March barber shop to help raise more than £1,000 for a cancer charity.
Rob Wilson, Adam Chapman and Michael Smith all lost their locks as part of a Brave The Shave event in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support.
Held at Riverside Barbers, Alexandra Haswell, Macmillan fund raising manager for Cambridge, Ely and the Fens, said: “We’d like to thank Adam, Michael and Rob for their amazing fund raising efforts.
“It’s great to see so much local support. The funds raised will ensure we’re able to help more and more people affected by cancer every year.”
One of the organisers Katy Shroff, said: “It was very poignant for Rob and Adam as they took part in memory of their grandad who they lost to cancer last year, and who would have been 83 on the day of the shave.
“Macmillan were fantastic in helping to care for their grandad, and supporting the whole family during that sad time.
“So far a combined amount of over £1,100 has been raised by Rob, Adam and Michael.
“A big thank you to all that have donated.”
Shaving at the charity event were Sandra White, Katy Shroff and Charlene Smith from Riverside Barbers.
