TEN local men braved the chill of the weather and got rid of their hair in aid of charity.

Organised by Ardrossan man Sal Blades, the shave and wax event held on Saturday, March 3 was a huge success.

The event was held at the Men’s Room in Saltcoats in aid of Age UK and the brave boys either had their head shaved or were waxed, or both!

A final total is still to be announced but it looks like they have smashed their £1,000 target.

Sal said: “A huge thanks to everyone who took part and made donations and a huge thanks to the Men’s Room for taking a huge part in it.”
