Community activist Dave Woods gave his all for the Citadel Youth Centre in a life changing Samson moment. He volunteered to have his hair and beard shaved, raising a welcome £500 for Centre funds.
The Citadel's own Finlay Smith made the first cut, but the main shearing was carried out by Simon Hill and his assistant Vicki, of Sesh Hairdressing of Bernard St, Leith.

Dave's hair weighed in at 73 grams which Leith & North calculates as about two and a half ounces in old money. There was also a competition to draw the best picture of Dave as he might look shaved.
