Locks smiths hold sway

MELTON’S Debbie Clarkson (pictured) was one of thousands of Australians who shaved or coloured their hair for the World’s Greatest Shave last week.

Ms Clarkson works in oncology and was inspired to lose her locks after caring for cancer patients.

The money she raised will be used to help fund services for patients and families living with leukaemia, lymphoma, myeloma and related blood disorders.
