Publican Kevin Edmonds had his hair shaved, as did brigade member Joshua Lay and brigade captain James Kirby, and Curlewis local's Eli Kelly and Kevin Paddison.

Brigade support member Amy Rimmer and Mr Lay's mother Jennifer coloured their hair.

Mr Kirby said it was great they raised so much for the Leukaemia Foundation.

"[$2000] is not bad for a small village in the middle of a drought," Mr Kirby said.

Mr Kirby also shaved his beloved moustache off after the group raised $500.

"I started growing it back today, so in three weeks the world will return back to normal."

Kevin Edmonds said it was "a bit different" when he saw himself in the mirror with no hair.

"People have said 'it suits you' but I'm going to grow it back," Mr Edmonds said.

"I lost my younger brother to leukaemia and I've never done anything like that so I thought 'I'll get mine shaved as well'".

Support brigade captain Amy Rimmer thanked many local organisations for their assistance, as well as Steve and Lucy Crane, Corinna Rankmore and hairdresser Kimmy Taggart.

Donations are still able to be made via the World's Greatest Shave website until June 30.
