Kiera’s brave effort has raised more than £275.
There’s only one slight problem....she’s decided to dye her shaven head bright blue.
Never one to miss out, 11-year-old sister Poppy decided she wanted to have her hair dyed pink!

Fortunately, only two of the Cullen off-spring decided to dye their hair.
Amy and dad Chris are proud of Kiera, a pupil at Horncastle’s Banovallum School.

“She said she wanted to do something for the NHS as well.
“She came up with the idea of the head shave and considering I’d done the same a couple of years ago, I could hardly say no.”
With all local hairdressers shut, it was Amy who performed the ‘number one’.

Hide AdKiera wasn’t happy with her new look. She initially ’bleached’ what little hair she had left...but then decided on blue.
Amy added: “Fortunately, she’s not as school and by the time she does go back, it will hopefully have grown out.
“We’d just like to thank everyone who has donated.”
