A Black Isle woman raised over £1000 to help a mental health charity – by having her hair cut.
Café manager Maru Fraser supported James Support Group, set up in memory of James Mullery who took his own life. The new hair style was provided by his widow, Jodie, studying hairdressing at UHI.
Mrs Fraser’s former long locks will also benefit a trust which makes wigs for children with cancer and alopecia.
She said: “The cat was playing with the ponytails before Jodie cut them and that was funny. It was all very relaxed.”
She showed Ms Mullery a photo of herself from many years ago when she had short hair and asked her to do something similar if possible
She said: “She did an amazing job. When she finished I was very happy and surprised I liked it. I never like when I get my hair done but she is good and did a great job. I was very happy and will try and keep this style now.
“We were in her living room so we had no front mirror, so it was tricky at times as she couldn’t see what she was doing, but she managed amazingly.”
