You've heard of Malibu Barbie and Christmas Barbie, but what about Cancer Barbie? A new online movement urging Mattel to create one is picking up steam.

The idea behind it is to show young girls who lose their hair from cancer treatment that bald can still be beautiful.

You can show your support for the movement by clicking here .

If Mattel agrees to make Cancer Barbie, movement organizers hope some proceeds will go to St. Jude's Children's Hospital.
