WHAT EXACTLY IS ‘NO SHAVE NOVEMBER’?
No Shave November is a month-long journey wherein the followers of this trend do not shave for 30 days. It aims at sparking a conversation and raising awareness about men’s health and some of these include a number of diseases and illnesses such as testicular and prostate cancer.
No Shave November also urges the masses to ‘grow awareness’ by embracing hair, letting it grow wild and free as many cancer patients often suffer hair loss during their treatment.
At the end of the month, participants are encouraged to donate the money they saved on shaving and grooming products for that month while promoting conversations which, in turn, raise awareness around cancer and educate people about the importance of cancer checks and its early prevention.

HISTORY OF NO SHAVE NOVEMBER
People first put down their razors for the noble cause in 2009 when a Chicago-based Hill family decided to reinvent the activity to raise money for charity.
The eight children of the Hill family chose to take on this activity after their father, Matthew Hill, passed away from colon cancer in November 2007.
Interestingly, the charity has so far raised over $10 million for a slew of cancer research charities.
