For the third year in a row, an annual “shavaton”<\/a> took place all over South Africa, including East London. During this day, you can get your hair shaved or sprayed green for the benefit of the South African Cancer Association CANSA<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We went crazy and decided to go for the “real thing” and had our hair shaved. The result looked like this:<\/p>\n

Karl’s hair was surprisingly soft after the shave. His haircut looked like this:<\/p>\n

Johan’s hair, on the other hand ended up very “sticky”. So much so that he had a hard time pulling T-shirts over his head as they became stuck in the hair, similar to velcro.<\/p>\n

\nWhen we got the haircuts, the weather was very hot and humid and therefore the advantage of the cut was that we were able to “keep our heads cool”. However, a day later, the weather changed and it became suddenly much colder. I guess the haircut worked to keep us cool!<\/p>\n
