On top of that she will donate her hair to Wigs for Kids Australia.
With 47 Australian's diagnosed with blood cancer every day the World's Greatest Shave has become a fundraiser as well known as any other.
Across the country each year thousands of people get sponsored to shave their hair and Electra said she was proud to be involved.

“I was already planning to cut my hair,” Electra said.
“But I wasn't planning on going that short.
“I chose to do the greatest shave as I know a lot of people living with cancer and wanted to do my bit.
“The idea popped into my head to do the greatest shave, so I discussed it with my husband and I thought, let's give this a go.”

Electra has set herself a target of $5000 and is sitting on $718.
She has set the date of the shave for March 12, giving her some time to hit, and hopefully surpass, that figure.
“My husband Jamie is going to do the shave, and we will collect all the hair to donate to Wigs for Kids,” she said.
Electra has donation tins set up in Priceline and Bendigo Bank in Benalla.
