After loosing my father to cancer last night, knowing it was going to be a loosing battle, I have decided to grow my hair in the style of a Mohican, thanks to Mr.T.
I don’t want to plaster my ugly mug all over the place, so I will show a picture every 2 days of my head to show you the progress, when you feel it is long enough please donate whatever you feel comfortable with.
I am doing this in the hope that a cure will be found for this horrible disease sooner and prevent others from experiencing a loved one slowly deteriorate.
Here’s to you Dad, may you rest in peace and I hope this brings a smile to your face and others.
Much Love
Alan.

Thanks guys 
It has been advised to state how long I am going to do this, as it helps keep it fresh in peoples minds and allows funds to be collected / donated ect ect.
I am going to do this for 6 weeks, the 27th April.
I need to get a passport photo done lol and I don't think having a mohican would go down too well.

It's been just over 6 weeks since my first pic. I have just uploaded the last pics.
Have to shave my head soon
Thanks to everyone that donated.
What do you think of me doing this once a year to raise money for cancer research and commemorate my dad?

It's been a year since my dad passed.
It has been hard, especially acknowledging the fact that he will never be able to answer any questions I have, let alone have a conversation with him.
I was planning to train and do the marathon, but I had problems with a blister I named Bob, yup, bob the blister lol. As soon as I did anymore than 5k it became painful.
I have now got rid of bob, but it is too late to get in training for the marathon.
I have decided to grow my hair again and dye it blonde.
I will start today and probably dye it tomorrow and post some pics.
Please feel free to donate as and when you think it is worthy.
I have no time limit this time so it might get a bit long.

Good growth of hair, dyed yesterday but now not very visible due to the lightness of the colour, which isn’t quite blonde
I will shave on Wednesday and redo the roots and take a pic then
