There is a group on fb that is trying to get Mattel to make a bald Barbie for kids fighting cancer. Barbie have been all kinds of professions before and they think it's time Barbie took a stand for kids with cancer. This is what they say on their page:
We would like to see a Beautiful and Bald Barbie made to help young girls who suffer from hair loss due to cancer treatments, Alopecia or Trichotillomania . Also, for young girls who are having trouble coping with their mother's hair loss from chemo. Many children have some difficulty accepting their mother, sister, aunt, grandparent or friend going from a long haired to a bald.

We think accessories such as wigs, bandanas, scarves and hats could be included. This would be a great coping mechanism for young girls dealing with hair loss themselves or a loved one. We would love to see a portion of proceeds go to childhood cancer research and treatment. Let's get Mattel's attention!


There is also a group for making a G.I. Joe bald for the same purpose. Please do support these groups and spread it with the wind :heart:
