Meet Nabi, a model, actress, single mom from Bangkok and her son Leonardo, a 9-year old Thai/Serbian kid with extremely long hair for a boy of his age. They both have been growing their hair for years and had no intention to have it cut until now when they heard about the Australian bushfires. They decided they could chop it off for a good cause!

Leo's fine dark brown hair has never been bleached or dyed, cut or ironed and he has used only organic/natural products for his entire young life. Plus, he has always been a vegetarian. One reason for his high-quality hair is that he eats only plant-based and mostly healthy food. Quite a responsible kid, eh?

Nabi works as a model and actress and, needless to say, her long hair is a very sought-after characteristic in her field. She has always been committed to animals rights and the protection of the environment.

Leo loves his hair and has refused to have it cut since he was a toddler. He was ok to braid his hair like some other Thai girls in his classroom to comply with the school rules for a student with long hair. Many people have asked him when he is going to cut his hair. He always postponed, even after some kids teased him for looking like a girl. He even got invited out of the men’s toilet a few times! He was offered a role in tv commercials with the condition that he had to get a haircut and look more like a boy. Of course, he refused because it’s not worth the all the time and the shampoo he has invested in it!

Recently, due to his heartbreak upon reading the news about the Australian bushfires, Leo donated all of his savings to adopt one koala named “Lion Leo.” He asked his mom if there was something else he could do. So they came up with this idea: he will have his beloved hair cut to raise money to help the victims of the bushfires. Nabi couldn't but support him in this brave choice offering her own hair too

Here is the deal:

All the money raised through this campaign will be donated to aid in Australian bushfires to the organisations mentioned above.
We promise to show full transparency in the process by filming the story when the haircut occurs and publish it on social media. Once cut, the hair will be donated to kids with cancer associations.

Goal to reach

$1,000
By the end of February... Leo will have his hair cut.


$10,000
Nabi will also cut her knee-length hair. It will be super short! No regrets!

$30,000
If we smash our goal and reach 30.000 USD Nabi will yield to people's requests and will SHAVE her head!

Timing

Leo has already prepared to have his hair cut to save more koalas and help people in need. He will do it as soon as we reach the goal.
Nabi cannot have her hair cut immediately because she needs it for some photoshoots that she has already agreed upon, so she will cut it (or shave!) by the end of August 2020.
