It was a big red nose day for Michael Harding who works at Ashfords, the solicitors, at Sowton.
Mr. Harding, 72, was having his flowing locks and generous beard shaved off to raise money for Comic Relief.
Mr Harding, an archivist, he has been growing his beard for over 40 years. Said a spokesman for the firm:
"We are so pleased that Mike has taken the plunge and should anyone want to knit Mike a balaclava, in his own words, it would be much appreciated! A very brave gesture in aid of an equally worthy cause. Over £300 has been raised from this alone and we are hoping to add another couple of hundred from dress down day."See more Red Nose Day photos from across Exeter here.
