Marky Mark and the Funky Cut

A$1,256

Marky Mark has long hair. Longer than the other Marky Mark. Some people want it gone. Let's face it LOTS of people want to see him cut that mane. He will only do it if he can raise some dollars for his lovely niece Amelia (6 years old) who has a range of disabilities (see below for more info). Seems reasonable given the level of attachment he actually has to his hair (like literally).

So do you want him to get a funky cut? I know I do and I am willing to pledge so he really truly does it and doesn't  just slip out the back the door when he thinks nobody is looking.

I reckon the person who pledges the most should get the first go with the scissors!  What do you think?? It would be fun to have scissors that close to his face. Who knows maybe will let you do his eyebrows and I don't know, maybe dye his hair too. Maybe he'll go the buzz cut?  To give you an idea, here are some artists's impressions.. I personally think he rocks the rather inappropriate Rolf Harris look, but he could also be Princess Leia, a Supreme Court justice, a Chris Lilly character or some kind of blue haired aviator.  It all depends on who is holding the scissors on that one important night in July.  


And if you need further inspiration..... Here is the other Marky Mark who rocks a hairdo. Which of the many moods of the original Marky Mark, Mr Mark Wahlberg should he go for?  Man with monkey? Serious but sexy? Dude with baseball hat ? Maybe he can do all three, if you can find a monkey who will kiss him while he is looking sexy and a bit annoyed and he is wearing a baseball hat ( someone got too close with those scissors). 

You have to be able to attend the Trivia night on July 19th at 6pm at the Gallipoli Legion Club in Newcastle to cut the actual hair, but you don't have to be there to donate! So give now! 


How The Funds Will Be Used

Ok, so here's the deal, Like the video at  the top of the page said Amelia has lots of care needs and we are aiming to raise $5000 to help. This will go to mobility equipment as well as special educational items.  The family has constant additional costs as Amelia grows and requires different types of support. We have attached a bit more info about Amelia's medical condition and Amelia's Vision which is a registered charity trust..pop over here for more info..

The Challenges


If people try to talk Mark out of it, well this would be  BIG obstacle. So don't OK? Nobody is going to pledge money to see him with the same hair. It doesn't work like that. Also if he watches this video, well might just change his mind and decide to keep it. Yeah so don't look at this Mark. 

If you are attending the great Marky Mark hair cutting, at the Amelia's Vision trivia night, you can take a lock of his hair! What a super idea! You can make a voodoo doll or have it laminated and pop it on the fridge! One lock only per customer.
