Behind the scenes #6 - Stylo-milo, A Cut Above Academy Here We Go!

Malaysians are stylo-milo, or very simply trendy and stylish.

We are never shy to give it a go when it comes to hair. Mohawk, dreadlocks, bald, red-blue-pink-purple-orange-I-dunno-what-other-colours coloured hair, and of course hair tattoo! But have you ever wonder, how many do it for charity? We believe it is quite close to a few.

A few indeed but we have a brave and kindhearted gentleman who does this for “A CUT ABOVE CHARITY”!  Not only that, we have two pretty ladies and one handsome gentleman who are willing to model with headgears to create publicity in the college.

Last Thursday, a team made a trip to A Cut Above Academy at Sunway Pyramid, Subang to get themselves some hair and headgear styling education from the professionals. And the "man-of-the-moment" and his moment of truth. =)

 

It was all good for the “man-of-the-moment” until the team reached the destination. 

Time for some styling... From left: Chun Weng, Jason Low (far front) and Shin Jin ready for some hair and headgear styling education at A Cut Above Academy, Sunway Pyramid, Subang

Moment of truth... Teong Eu (THE man-of-the-moment) awaits his moment to have his head shave (just like the head in the picture)

See the linkage? Teong Eu “the man” is going to shave the “A Cut Above Charity” logo on the back of his head and it is all in the name of charity! How cool is that?!

In fact, his picture will be used in the “A Little Help, Fulfils A Dream” puzzle. 

"A Little Help, Fulfils A Dream" Puzzle

Life is made up of momentous steps and pieces of experience in our life. Every missing piece represents an incomplete dream and life of the less fortunate. Therefore, YOU can lend a helping hand to complete the puzzle with just a minimum of RM1.00 a piece. This giant puzzle will be presented to the beneficiary home as a remembrance, not to forget that the fund raised through this puzzle will be given to them as well.

Shave 'em off... The shaving begins!

Meanwhile, the models prepare to learn what is needed to be done with their hair before putting on the headgear. Many may think it is easy but wait until you see the process. It is not easy at all!

And then comes the process...

Time to shake the headgear back and forth - just to test. 

The masterpiece and its creator... Cassius Lawrence and his masterpiece for "A Cut Above Charity"

A few words from "THE man"

That marked the end of a good day at the salon and we thank A Cut Above a lot for the FREE cut and advise on how to put on the headgears. Many thanks! Especially to Mr. Cassius!

Do come to the campaign and get your hair cut for only RM10 (funds collected will be channeled to a beneficiary home), see the outcome of the puzzle (where all funds collected will also be channeled to the beneficiary home), our awesome models and most importantly, be part of this great charity effort for the less fortunate!
