Gemma sat in the barber's chair, trembling with both nervousness and anticipation. Her beautiful black hair, which normally fell nearly to her waist was tightly bound with a rubber band. She faced out into the crowd, and gave a nervous grin as she felt a pair of scissors begin cutting above the rubber band. In moments, her remaining hair fell around her face in a ragged bob.
"Thank you so much for your generous donation!" the announcer called out, and the happy crowd clapped and cheered.
This whole thing started out when the beauty salon she worked at announced a charity event to donate hair for cancer survivors. Each participant would also shave their heads in solidarity. Gemma decided to participate, now was the moment of truth.
"Are you ready?" the woman behind her whispered in her ear.
"Yes, before I change my mind!" she replied shakily.
She looked out at the crowd as the electric clippers started at her forehead and cut away a wide path of hair to the nape of her neck. Beneath the cloth covering her clothes, she carefully reached under her denim miniskirt and pulled aside her thong. She couldn't believe how wet this was making her, and had to resist the urge to fully masturbate in front of the crowd. She was pretty sure her orgasm would be noticed.
Within a few minutes, most of her hair was gone and the woman was using the clippers to remove the last wisps of hair from her scalp. She placed a hand on her head, feeling the rough velvet texture of the buzz cut. It was amazing to her how cool the room felt without an insulating layer of hair.
The woman brushed of the hair, and unbuttoned the cape. Gemma got to her feet, somewhat unsteadily.
"You're so brave, thank you again!" the announcer said. "Let's all give Gemma a round of applause!"
The crowd cheered and clapped as Gemma left the stage. She could hear the announcer calling the next volunteer forward, but it felt muted because of the pounding of her heart. She gingerly felt her scalp, fascinated by the alien feel of the short stubble. She had to find a mirror!
She worked her way through the audience, and found the ladies room. Leaning both hands on the counter, she stared at her reflection. Her beautiful delicate features looked almost elfin without hair to obscure them. The only thing that disappointed her was that the fine stubble showed against her skin.
The door opened and a young blond woman entered. Seeing Gemma, she exclaimed "Oh, you're so brave! I could never do that!"
"Well, it grows back, and it's for a good cause," Gemma replied.
"I guess, I just don't know how I'd deal with it."
Gemma smiled, and headed to the exit. Outside the door, her boyfriend Chris took both her hands and gave her a quick kiss.
"You look amazing!" he said, with an enthusiastic look on his face.
"Thanks! I'm so glad you said that. I was worried how you would react."
"Why? You're beautiful, with or without hair!" he replied. "Are you ready to get out of here?"
"Sure, let me say some goodbyes and we can get going," she replied.
She made her way to the front, and said goodbye to several of her co-workers. In a few minutes, she met Chris at the exit, and they walked to his car. He reached over and lightly brushed the palm of his hand on her scalp, looking down at her and grinning. She gave him a punch in the arm and said "Pervert!"
"Hey, I can't help how hot you look!" he replied in mock defensiveness.
"You think so?" she replied in an uncertain tone.
"Absolutely," he said firmly.
