Tierney goes ‘Spears’ for Cancer

By Tierney Ellens

I'm now a Zero Hero

Hello everyone, I have decided to shave my head on Sunday, 25th February 2024 in an effort to make a small contribution to fundraising for the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF). I will also be donating my hair to the Kids with Cancer Foundation where it will be used to make wigs for kids with cancer.

I believe every death from breast cancer is one too many. Unfortunately it’s safe to say, most of us are affected by or know of people directly affected by Breast Cancer in some way. I’m raising funds for more research and all donations made to this page will help do exactly.

The National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) is Australia’s leading national body funding game-changing breast cancer research with money raised entirely by the Australian public.

I really believe research is the best way to prevent deaths, and improve how breast cancer is diagnosed, managed and treated. NBCF is working towards one goal: zero deaths from breast cancer. Together we can help them get there.

Click 'Donate' to make a secure online donation and help me reach my goal. Every donation, big or small, will help me get there.

All donations over $2 are tax deductible and you will be issued with a tax-deductible receipt via email as soon as you make your donation.

Thank you so much for your support!

Never had my hair bleached and toned before, but loving it. Who would have thought having a number 2 haircut cost more to maintain than have long below shoulder length hair! Not even mad about it. Loving this look and I think I’ll keep it. One more time, thank you everyone who has donated, cannot believe together we reach $3,300 for this incredible cause!!! Feeling grateful for the people in my life. #fuckcancer!!!!

INCREDIBLY GRATEFUL!!

Thank you to everyone who has supported me and donated to this amazing cause. Everyone has been soo generous and encouraging. I couldn’t have done it without all of you, so thank you! Embracing my Sinead O’Connor and Brittany Spears (minus the breakdown) era. 
I have never felt so free and empowered! 
Thank you everyone, I love you all! Xxxx

No hair and love it!

Hair dresser thoughts.

Friday 16th Feb
I am currently sitting in the chair at the hairdresser with one last colour in my hair before the big chop in 8 days. I can’t help but feel completely overwhelmed with the support I have received already,  I was not expecting this! I am so grateful for all who have donated and reached out. I feel like what I am doing is the most minute thing when it comes to the big picture. Too many people are affected by cancer and as one person I feel so helpless. I’ve been told that I am brave and courageous, but I cannot help but think this is nothing compared to how brave and courageous people are who are living and battling Cancer and how their loved ones feel. 
Shaving my head is going to be easy just thinking about the above, it’s just hair!!! I CANNOT WAIT <3
