Phoenix woman shaves head for charity, new celebrity look alikes (Video)

A Phoenix woman has raised over $2,200 for charity by shaving her head in a bold fundraiser to celebrate her 30th birthday. With two pages on GoFundMe, Shana Schwarz collected donations in favor of shaving her head or friends could donate to save her hair. Not surprisingly, the page in favor of shaving her head raised more money by a considerable margin. Thus, she joined celebrities Natalie Portman, Emma Watson, Angelina Jolie and more as another bald and beautiful woman.

While many Hollywood women shave their heads for movie roles, Mrs. Schwarz decided on two charities to benefit with her fundraiser. Half of the money she raises will go to Starlight Children's Foundation of Arizona and the other half will go to A Life Story Foundation. With make up by Tania at the Scottsdale Quarter Sephora and help from the staff at Let It Roll Bowl in Phoenix, longtime friend Becky Lilley-Gerblick of Rumors Salon in Scottsdale did the honors and buzzed Shana's hair with friends and family in attendance to cheer her on.

Donations are still being accepted on both sites. Read more about Mrs. Schwarz's cause here.
