What will you choose?
Can I donate my hair to Canteen?
We at Canteen can't take hair donations, unfortunately, but here is some info about other organisations that do:
Grant A Wig for Kids | Australia Alopecia Areata Foundation
Hair with Heart | Variety the Children’s Charity
What kind of dye should I use to colour my hair?
There are lots of non-toxic hair dyes out there and we fully promote doing this challenge in a risk-free way. Also, there is certainly no expectation that everyone in Australia is in a position to dye their hair – if that’s you, please consider cutting or covering your hair, selling bandannas OR taking the 10,000 steps a day challenge with us.
We'd love for you to dye your hair Canteen green or Canteen blue and sport our colours but this event is intended to be first and foremost a challenge so we encourage you to pick a colour that takes you outside of your comfort zone. The crazier you go, the more likely your friends and family will donate to support you!
