I agree.  It may have been done with good intentions, there is a fine line between "raising awareness" and "getting attention".

      As an aside, for the first time in my life, I saw an NFL game this year, and I enjoyed seeing the Philly Eagle cheerleaders immensely. Every one of the 30 women had long, luscious locks, several to their waists. It was clear to me that having pretty, long hair is a major reason that they were hired.

I'm generally not a proponent of the bald/severely buzzed look, but Megan does not look bad at all.

Here is a link to photos of all of the Colts cheerleaders. Megan M and Crystal B were the two cheerleaders that had their heads shaved.
