Shave & Style with Remington: Proud Shaving Partner of the World’s Greatest Shave

Every March, a community of trailblazers steps up to Shave, Cut, or Colour their hair. All in the name of funding life changing blood cancer support and research. Whether it’s a buzzcut, a bob, or a splash of colour, the World’s Greatest Shave is your perfect excuse to get that hairstyle you’ve always wanted. It’s a great way to take on a personal challenge and step out of your comfort zone. All while championing a good cause and raising funds that’ll change lives.

What is the World’s Greatest Shave?

The Leukaemia Foundation’s World’s Greatest Shave is one of Australia’s most iconic fundraising events, bringing people, businesses, schools and communities together from across the country for over 25 years.

Some take part every year as a tradition, some have a personal connection to cancer, while others simply want to come together for a cause bigger than themselves while having some fun along the way.

By shaving, cutting, or colouring your hair, you’re not just changing your hairstyle.

You’re changing the lives of Australians facing blood cancer right now.

Changing your hair is a big deal.

Taking on the World’s Greatest Shave is the ultimate act of support for blood cancer patients.

Shaving Hair, Saving Lives 

Former MasterChef contestant, foodie and author Tommy Pham (@tommyphameats) shares his thoughts as his brother bravely shaves in 2026. 

I shaved my brother’s hair for the World’s Greatest Shave because supporting families impacted by cancer means a lot to us. 

Our family has been affected by cancer, and my brother was especially close to the person we lost. 

Blood cancer affects 55 Australians daily. With a personal connection to the cause, shaving a family member’s hair and starting with a $2,000 donation was a small but powerful way to help the Leukaemia Foundation fund life-changing care.

Every dollar raised helps keep families together when they need each other most.

The World’s Greatest Shave – Hair Shaving, Cutting and Colour Tips

1. The Shave: Styling Your “New Canvas”

A shaved head isn’t just a loss of hair—it’s a bold look that highlights your facial features.

• The “TWA” (Teeny Weeny Afro): For textured hair, a tapered Afro is trending. It offers structure and 70s nostalgia.
• The Power Beard/Brow: Your facial hair becomes your main accessory. Use a sharp goatee or oiled beard to define your jaw.
• Scalp Care is Skincare: Once exposed, your scalp needs protection. Use SPF 50+ or a stylish wide-brimmed hat. Hydrate with a non-greasy moisturiser for a healthy, polished glow.

2. The Cut: 2026 Trends

Opt for a style that is both trendy and philanthropic.

• The “Pixie 2.0”: 2026 favours soft, playful pixies with texture and movement over rigid lines.
• The Soft Shag or “Lob”: A textured “Long Bob” with face-framing layers is this year’s “it” style.
• Donation Checklist:
  • Length: Usually a 20cm–30cm minimum is required.
  • Condition: Hair must be clean, dry, and bundled into ponytails.
  • Sustainable Salons: Visit a partner salon via Sustainable Salons to ensure your ponytail reaches the Leukaemia Foundation.

3. The Colour: 2026 “Vibe Shift”

Use these 2026 colour trends to raise awareness without the clippers.

• Sunset Tones: “Carnelian Orange” and “Burnt Sienna” are vibrant, chic ways to grab attention.
• Icy Blue Accents: 2000s-inspired “frosty blue” streaks are a popular way to nod to the Leukaemia Foundation’s signature hues.
• The “Gloss” Era: For a natural look, use a high-shine clear gloss to make your colour pop during your event.
