ARCHIVED - 26th January Solidarity haircuts in Alhama de Murcia to raise money for rare diseases sufferers

'Solidarios por los Pelos' is raising funds for the asociación D'Genes and Fundación Francisco Munuera

More than 50 hairdressing professionals and beauticians from not only the Murcia region, but also Alicante, Valencia, Málaga and Córdoba, will gather in the sports pavilion Pabellón  Adolfo Suárez in Alhama de Murcia on Sunday 26th January to raise funds for the asociación D'Genes, which cares for those with rare diseases, and Fundación Francisco Munuera which assists those with physical disabilities.

Both male and female beauty treatments, haircuts and barber services will be on offer at bargain prices and this year the initiative aims to cut 1,000 heads of hair!

In the past the hairdressers present have come very close to this target, regularly hitting over 900 cuts, but this year all are determined to make a really big push and go for the 1,000 target!

Those requiring a haircut are recommended to come along with hair pre-washed as cuts will be dry cuts due to the nature of the facilities.

Tickets can be purchased in the sports pavilion on the day.

The whole event will be enlivened by music, DJ, theatrical performances and Photocall.

So come along and make yourself beautiful for a good cause (well, two good causes!).
