But the real action was saved until the very last, when 16 brave souls were put on the razor's edge.
On Sunday afternoon the brigade bared their heads as part of the World's Greatest Shave for the Leukaemia Foundation.
Young and old got either the clipper or dye treatment, with one young woman losing almost two feet of hair in one fell snip.

Their total currently stands at $1,983.43. But it is still possible to donate via their Team Fundraising Page here.
