And put on a good comedy 🎬 or some good music 🎶 and let yourself laugh 😂 or cry 😢 I did both and felt alot better when it was all done.

This video rocks so hard!!! I love when someone decides to break away from conventional hair styles and just slay with a buzz cut. I shaved my head well over a decade ago when I was in my mid 20’s and it was very liberating. Great video Brad ❣️
I once went bald as well. However the reason for me was to help my bff as she was balding due to chemotherapy and had to loose everything one of them days. RIP Gwenny unfortunately she didn't make it however I'm glad to have made you shaving you head more bearable by doing it with you. I had until that point long hair but to never forget her I now keep it short
This is such an emotional situation. I went through this with several clients and it was the most intense part of being a hairdresser. You did something really special ❤
Aw, there's so much involved in our hair, it's a bit funny. Like it carries all of our experiences, memories, feelings, etc. My old sister always loveddddd my hair when it was long. She'd spend hours braiding it and dressing up as fairies together and taking pictures. I still remember how disappointed she looked after I got a bob. After she passed, I didn't cut my hair more than end trims for years. It was definitely my way of remembering her, and my way of like... letting myself feel my grief? Giving my love for her a place to go maybe? After a long time, I did eventually decide I was ready to cut it again, but it was more symbolic of me saying "I think I'll be okay now" and that she's free to go.
This April I shaved my head when my hair was super long and black with bangs. I am naturally a cool light/medium brown and from years of black box dye and being every color under the rainbow, I am so happy that I did it and its almost to pixie length already!! It does grow out super fast. I was also losing hair due to stress and shaving it was the best decision! The short soft peach fuzz phase is so fun! Happy to see Brad react to buzzcut videos. THEY SLAY! WE SLAY! Just do it if you are contemplating it!!! It will also help you love yourself more and accept yourself in different forms and challenge the belief that feminine means long hair. It is now the healthiest it has been in years and ugh just do it already!!
@@cherylsHTX It is so freeing and if you've thought about it for awhile and have the want to do it, you won't regret it!! I was so happy and relieved when I did it and its been so cool to watch it grow back. You can do it!!!
Shaved my head about 6-7 years ago. Haven't looked back. And when I began chemo and whatever I had left started falling out. No, Stress. My hair has not even grown back since my last chemo session in February. Still. No. Stress. Just rock the bald head. All these gals are gorgeous! We here in LA, do either the head nod or wave when recognizing a fellow bald beauty. Thank you for this video!

Thank you Brad Mondo for encouraging people to donate their hair. You have no idea how much it means for a child with alopecia or leukemia to get their first wig. 💖
This is the video I needed. I’ve been so depressed since messing my hair up and having to cut it all off and the awkward grow back has been horrible I’ve had such low self confidence. I love this ❤
I shaved my head for charity Brad I raised a lot of money for cancer research I was 40 and I loved it. Made me look younger actually. Love you’re videos xxx
I shaved my head in 2018, it was SO liberating! I got told all the time how "brave" I was and I just didn't understand...it's just hair. Lots of awkward stages while growing it out, but it's so much fun to play with and find what looks good on you. I totally recommend it!
I’ve shaved my head a few times now! It’s liberating, and amazing how beautiful you feel without the attachment to your hair!! I recommend everyone try it once, just to prove to yourself how incredibly radiant and beautiful you are without the trappings of hair. Go for it!!
I had to shave my head because of chemotherapy three times. The first time I tried to hold onto my hair as long as possible but it just wasn’t it. Promised myself I wouldn’t wait the next time. Women have so many beauty standards society wants us to live up to. I wasn’t any less of a woman or person because I was bald. And not everybody bald is sick. It’s so sad we hold so much attachment to our hair because its one of the things that makes us feminine. That was one of the last things I needed to worry about at the time. It’s definitely freeing for some, but others it’s pretty traumatic because it’s not in your hands. I’ve learned to not give my hair so much weight in my life. That’s even more freeing. All of these women look incredible. Their natural facial features are really highlighted when their hair is gone.
@notfound_humanexe I had a reply typed out to you...but Cyber Space JUST ATE IT‼️ I also have LOST my hair to cancer.. but it was for GAMMA RAY KNIFE SURGERY (which is NOW called GAMMA RAY KNIFE THERAPY) It's STILL the SAME thing... The ONLY thing that has changed is the NUMBER of RAYS that they NOW SHOOT INTO YOUR BRAIN 🧠‼️When I had it done in 2011.. I had 296 Beans of Radiation.. it has NOW been lowered to between 192 & 201. Also INSTEAD of the HALO I was REQUIRED TO USE (that ALSO NEEDED 4 holes drilled in my head) They now use a special helmet. And I believe it is specifically made for each patient..like how a radiation mask is. From what I have been told by other patients, you no LONGER need to shave your head‼️ I ROCKED MY SHAVED HEAD WHILE I HAD IT👍🏼‼️ I went from having waist length hair to being bald... I was extremely LUCKY that none of my chemotherapy caused me to lose my hair... My chemotherapy was hormone based... And the medication that I have been on for the LAST 19 years that is a FOOD SOURCE FOR THE CANCER..SO THAT IT DOESN'T FIND SOMETHING ELSE TO FEED ON IN MY BODY... actually helps my hair and nails to grow VERY QUICKLY... It JUST happens to be a side effect of the medication. We did find out in 2017, that the medication was NO LONGER WORKING THE WAY IT WAS SUPPOSED TO‼️ It STILL feeds the cancer, but the cancer has STARTED to find other ways to FEED...meaning it is spreading WITHOUT regards to the medication I take‼️I DECIDED TO STOP ANY FURTHER INVASIVE PROCEDURES AND TREATMENT‼️ I will continue to fight but ONLY with what I have and not with anything else, meaning nothing surgical or anything lifesaving. I made an ADVANCED HEALTH DIRECTIVE & our State requires what's called a POLST... Everything for ALL of that is in place... And has been since 2017...Yet here it is 2024 and I am STILL HERE👍🏼❣️ I HAVE LEARNED A MOTTO, several actually... 1)ONE DAY AT A TIME ❣️ 2)WHAT DOESN'T KILL YOU ONLY MAKES YOU STRONGER❣️ 3) ONLY HOPE REMAINS ❣️ 4)MY LIFE, MY LOVES, MY REASONS TO GO ON❣️ 5) YESTERDAY IS GONE TOMORROW IS NOT PROMISED ALL WE HAVE IS TODAY❣️ ALL of these are tattooed on my BODY... That's how much they mean to ME ❣️ Hair does not define anyone 👍🏼🥰❣️ Do whatever makes YOU HAPPY💕🫂🥰❣️ 💞 ALOHA FROM HAWAI'I 💞 🌹 LYSSA 🌹
I definitely felt Naomi’s feelings bc of mine. I thought I was mentally prepared bc I knew it was coming. Uh-uh. Hair has always been a part of me since birth. For most of my life I’ve worn it long… come to after my 1st round of chemo almost 3 weeks later: *Miley Cyrus coming in on her wrecking ball*😭😭😭. If I didn’t break down like a glass wall and saw that CLUMP of hair in my hand… went to a friend who’s a hairdresser and cut me a bob that hid the thinning spots. 4 days later was my next chemo and I couldn’t scratch my head without… had a bunch of cousins taking turns with the clippers. Family is with you through the journey and that’s how I involved kids/teens/those that act like kids… Its coming back gray, originally brown, and is almost 1” long.
you posting this one week after i shaved my hair for the first time ever is so cool, i thinked about doing it for like 3 years before doing it and i love it so much i feel so pretty like this
I am totally with the first girl, the first cut is always the hardest & I have done this several times in the last 5 years, it always nervwracking & the adrenalin after that first cut is freaking unreal. And now that you reminded me my hair getting a bit to long again so time to charge my clippers, thanks for reminding me of this weeks goal of buzzing my hair of.
I love this so much ❤️ Anyone else obsessed with Cocona from XG in her shaved head era? Hopefully this is allowed and not seen as promoting… but her hair shaved moment was the first thing I thought of watching this video. Total empowerment for these ladies!
I loved Naomi’s look the most, I think if she also bleached her eyebrows to match her hair, it would really elevate her transformation. Either way she’s so stunning and beautiful ♥️
Videos like this always make me smile. I haven't voluntarily made a transformation like this in over 20 years, the last time being when I cut off 3.5 feet of hair before going to college. I had an involuntary change to my hair after a head injury, which significantly added to the trauma of that whole event. I've been growing it since and plan to continue, but I love the reminder of how empowered I felt by that huge hair chop, that summer day in 1998.
But societal narrative and conditional reinforces certain looks and aesthetics implicitly and explicitly. We internalize it until we break through them.
@@esya800she broadcast it, so its only fair to remind ppl we dont live in a fairy tale 🤷♀️ too many ppl get ridiculed for things they cant change and ppl w/o deformities should be aware and grateful they dont live this nightmare.
Omg! Yesss!😍🤳🏻I live for these headshaving videos ..lol 🥳You get so much satisfaction from shaving it all off .For me as a 52 yr old woman ,I have been shaving my hair off " 1 in or 1/2 in" for the last 5+ years and each time I do it ,I feel more and more confident .I used to care about peoples opinions ,judgements ,etc but now I just don't let it bother me. I love wakeing up each day and not worrying about styling it ...its either Hat ,beanie or nothing.😎🤘🏻
I just went from Rib cage length hair to a short French Bob. I’m 35 and wanted to do it since I was 5, but it was ingrained in me that only certain woman cut their hair that short. Ironically, I’ve never felt more feminine or like myself.
i dont understand how some people call a bob short hair. that is incorrect. a pixie cut is short. a bob is medium length. long hair starts at shoulder length. honestly, no one needs hair longer than shoulder length.
@@robopechawho cares? Hair is hair and people have preferences. Personally, I have hair that’s almost past my boobs. To me, a bob hair cut is short. Anything from bald to shoulder length is short hair, then shoulder length is medium to long hair and anything past that is long hair. And maybe people don’t “need” longer hair than shoulder length, but many of us like and want it. I’m trying to grow my hair to my bum (again) because I like it. Other people prefer their hair shaved, short or medium length and that’s fine too. Maybe don’t judge people for their hairstyle choice?
@@robopecha you said you don’t understand how people call a bob short hair, I’ve told you why some people call it short hair. I also answered the last part about why no one needs hair longer than shoulder length, because they want to. What aren’t you getting? It’s other people’s preferences, and opinions. Maybe a bob cut isn’t short to you, and maybe you don’t like long hair but to someone else a bob cut is short and people like or want long hair because they feel like it?
I think all four of them have my heart because they all look so beautiful even before they cut their hair. And now they look even more gorgeous without it. 🤩❤
I have alopecia, it grows back to a few inches, then falls out again 😢. I just keep it shaved now to avoid the emotions and actually enjoy the freedom and ease.
Same here :/ I shaved my head almost a week ago and it feels very liberating. I had long hair but it was thinning on the top and sides. It looked way worse when it was wet and it caused me more pain than anything. I put a lot of power into my hair and since I'm very shy, I would hide behind it like a security blanket. I'll be wearing a wig or a scarf when I'm out in public, but I feel so much better than I did before 🥲
Same. Finally, I was unable to hide it this year. I shaved the last few chunks on my birthday. It's so weird though. I was excited, but halfway through, I cried. I've never been very femme, and always was very alt, but beauty standards still... hurt my feelings lol.
@@jenewokfor me as well. Thankfully I only had a huge spot that's growing back in nicely, and two very small spots on my neck, so I still have hair to work and hide it. But if my huge spot would appear again, I don't know how many times I could do this, the process was so exhausting. I would look horrible being bald tho :/
I shaved my head almost 4 years ago to the day. I loved it. It was so freeing! I always say I want to do it again at some point and do fun colors! So I love hearing Brad say that! ❤❤
I've shaved my head 5 different times and have never regretted it! And Brad, i went raw baby! I would constantly bleach and color it. It was always so fun. This is making me want to shave it again and my hair is just growing out from my last shave. I'd never gotten more compliments on my hair or lack of it. They all killed it! Ps I love you Mr Mondo ❤ #newlook #bold #shorthair #selflove #hairtransformation
britney didn’t shave her head bc she was unstable that just fed into the narrative that allowed her to be controlled for 13 years :/ i’m reading her book rn and she said she saved it for the same reasons as the first girl, her hair was her power
I wish someone sat me down back then and explained to my child self that how the media was treating people like Britney, Paris, Lindsay, Courtney (a minor!), and many others was spectacularly inhumane.
I’m not a fan of her at all but I can’t help but feel for her the little bit of her story I’ve picked up from media. That viral guy “ LEAVE BRITTANY ALONE” is SO me 😢
Omg i am so happy. I had commented a while back that i wish you offered a dark brown color for us girls that want to stay natural color and not get crazy with bright colors. I just saw that you now offer dark brown. I am 40 and have a lot of grays coming in. I have never dyed my hair. Wish me luck!!!.
These ladies killed it! They all pulled it off in their own unique way. I especially loved Courtney's and Naomi's look. I'm still building up the courage of going bald/buzzy for probably 10 years now. I got as far as cutting my hair REALLY short at some point last year and once in my 20s. x)
These are so fun! I think the last one looked the best, but I loved the attitude of the first one. I want more of these. I totally shaved my head when I was about 13. I don’t think I even had a guard on the razor. It was so liberating. I agree that everyone should do it once.
Vida was my fave! She looked SO good! I’ve definitely thought about shaving my head- but haven’t done it because I have weird bumps on my head 🤷♀️and I also like the wildness of my natural curls
I love love love the message the first girl got across she had a dramatic change with a beautiful message. I love that she had no regrets and maintained such a fun and positive attitude. She is beautiful with and without hair and either way she had so much confidence. Me personally I don't think I could do that and she is so bold. Society doesn't know what beautiful is everything is beautiful and she really shows how different or unique is good. It was a big change for her and I hope others will appreciate her point.
I thought the same as well but when you don't have hair it allows everyone to focus on the beauty of your face. Being confident in your skin is true beauty ❤
Absolutely love this video! I shaved my head in the chemotherapy process and I was amazed by how good it felt! I don’t have the ideal head shape for it, but man it felt good! I was shocked by how cold I got sometimes though, the first time I was in an air conditioned room I totally about froze! I’m in the growing out process now and honestly I find it so tempting just to zip it all off again! It is absolutely liberating!!
Been doing it since I was 15 on and off. I'm 45 now and it's no big deal to me. Remember: it will grow back. So if you feel like doing it, just go for it.
I’m usually not a fan of the shaved head look on anyone, but omg that first girl looks incredible! One of the few times I actually prefer someone with their head shaved. She absolutely rocks it and I hope she likes it cause damn!
Honestly, everyone in this video ended up looking pretty cool. Naomi obviously wasn’t super happy with it, and it’s not one of my favourite looks on her, but she still rocks it
All of them looked more beautiful with bald heads than with hair but the second one was my favorite. That blonde hair with her face made up was wow! Cute with long hair to sexy badass mostly bald. Love it!
I shaved my hair 3 years ago completely inspired by watching your reaction videos watching other women shave their heads, and absolutely, that feeling of adrenaline when you're cutting the long hair off is HUGE! This makes me want to do it again. 😅
Love these!! I've had my hair cut shooort after before with under shaves and now and rocking a side shave and love it!! Have had a side shave now for like 5 years.
Another amazing video! I would definitely vote for Meredith. PS... to Brad... I wish you lots of strength on those difficult days when you are struggling to find your identity. I know many of us are so glad to see you here each week and see so much value in you and your work not just in the the UA-cam community but in the community of hairstyles and fashion!
thank you SO much for posting another one of these. i've always struggled with my hair, it's way too thick to manage, way too curly & gets so matted so easily. i'm planning on shaving my head tomorrow and i'm still terrified, but i know it'll be better for me.
I love watching these videos!! I've done a big chop twice in my life and it felt so great and I loved every minute of it and when I didn't feel up to wearing a bald head. I wore a wig! LOL So it was even more fun to be whoever with whatever wig I wanted!
I've been thinking about cutting my hair for the last couple of days and then your video pop up it's the sign I needed I'm about to get ready to cut my hair off and I love your videos
I shaved my head two years ago and grew it out and honestly it was a very good decision. There were times I looked bad during growing out stage but honestly going bald was life changing
I have had a shaved head number 2 for over 2 years and I have never felt more beautiful. It is absolutely my favourite look and best decision I’ve ever made
Loved this video! I loved it having a buzzcut. I now have a short pixie cut again but I might go back to buzzcut soon. Just love not having to style it. Love your videos Brad!❤
I can't even believe what I'm seeing. All of the women are very pretty. But when they shaved their heads... just WOW!!! All of their features just popped, and they're like goddesses now. ❤
Naomi will ALWAYS serve iconic looks! I love how bold she is and how far she was willing to go for a music vid. Her new album Villain of Your Dreams is beautiful!!
Me too! I love how bold and bald she is💜

I shaved my head in 2018, it was SO liberating! I got told all the time how "brave" I was and I just didn't understand...it's just hair. Lots of awkward stages while growing it out, but it's so much fun to play with and find what looks good on you. I totally recommend it!
You can shave your hair if you want, but it’s not just hair. You’re born with hair
@@Floraxzx some babies are bald 😭 either way it's just hair, bud
@@s2entimentalIk I meant your born with hair-
Love this!!
You weren't brave lol
I’ve shaved my head a few times now! It’s liberating, and amazing how beautiful you feel without the attachment to your hair!! I recommend everyone try it once, just to prove to yourself how incredibly radiant and beautiful you are without the trappings of hair. Go for it!!
I had to shave my head because of chemotherapy three times. The first time I tried to hold onto my hair as long as possible but it just wasn’t it. Promised myself I wouldn’t wait the next time. Women have so many beauty standards society wants us to live up to. I wasn’t any less of a woman or person because I was bald. And not everybody bald is sick. It’s so sad we hold so much attachment to our hair because its one of the things that makes us feminine. That was one of the last things I needed to worry about at the time. It’s definitely freeing for some, but others it’s pretty traumatic because it’s not in your hands. I’ve learned to not give my hair so much weight in my life. That’s even more freeing. All of these women look incredible. Their natural facial features are really highlighted when their hair is gone.
Im so sorry that happened to you, just know not having hair does not make you any less of a woman 💓💓
That is amazing comment thank you and good for you for going though all that you're a fighter ❤
Yes, hair doesn't make us women.
@notfound_humanexe I had a reply typed out to you...but Cyber Space JUST ATE IT‼️ I also have LOST my hair to cancer.. but it was for GAMMA RAY KNIFE SURGERY (which is NOW called GAMMA RAY KNIFE THERAPY) It's STILL the SAME thing... The ONLY thing that has changed is the NUMBER of RAYS that they NOW SHOOT INTO YOUR BRAIN 🧠‼️When I had it done in 2011.. I had 296 Beans of Radiation.. it has NOW been lowered to between 192 & 201. Also INSTEAD of the HALO I was REQUIRED TO USE (that ALSO NEEDED 4 holes drilled in my head) They now use a special helmet. And I believe it is specifically made for each patient..like how a radiation mask is. From what I have been told by other patients, you no LONGER need to shave your head‼️
I ROCKED MY SHAVED HEAD WHILE I HAD IT👍🏼‼️ I went from having waist length hair to being bald... I was extremely LUCKY that none of my chemotherapy caused me to lose my hair... My chemotherapy was hormone based... And the medication that I have been on for the LAST 19 years that is a FOOD SOURCE FOR THE CANCER..SO THAT IT DOESN'T FIND SOMETHING ELSE TO FEED ON IN MY BODY... actually helps my hair and nails to grow VERY QUICKLY... It JUST happens to be a side effect of the medication. We did find out in 2017, that the medication was NO LONGER WORKING THE WAY IT WAS SUPPOSED TO‼️ It STILL feeds the cancer, but the cancer has STARTED to find other ways to FEED...meaning it is spreading WITHOUT regards to the medication I take‼️I DECIDED TO STOP ANY FURTHER INVASIVE PROCEDURES AND TREATMENT‼️ I will continue to fight but ONLY with what I have and not with anything else, meaning nothing surgical or anything lifesaving. I made an ADVANCED HEALTH DIRECTIVE & our State requires what's called a POLST... Everything for ALL of that is in place... And has been since 2017...Yet here it is 2024 and I am STILL HERE👍🏼❣️
I HAVE LEARNED A MOTTO, several actually...
1)ONE DAY AT A TIME ❣️
2)WHAT DOESN'T KILL YOU ONLY MAKES YOU STRONGER❣️
3) ONLY HOPE REMAINS ❣️
4)MY LIFE, MY LOVES, MY REASONS TO GO ON❣️
5) YESTERDAY IS GONE
TOMORROW IS NOT PROMISED
ALL WE HAVE IS TODAY❣️
ALL of these are tattooed on my BODY... That's how much they mean to ME ❣️
Hair does not define anyone 👍🏼🥰❣️ Do whatever makes YOU HAPPY💕🫂🥰❣️
💞 ALOHA FROM HAWAI'I 💞 🌹 LYSSA 🌹
I definitely felt Naomi’s feelings bc of mine. I thought I was mentally prepared bc I knew it was coming. Uh-uh. Hair has always been a part of me since birth. For most of my life I’ve worn it long… come to after my 1st round of chemo almost 3 weeks later: *Miley Cyrus coming in on her wrecking ball*😭😭😭. If I didn’t break down like a glass wall and saw that CLUMP of hair in my hand… went to a friend who’s a hairdresser and cut me a bob that hid the thinning spots. 4 days later was my next chemo and I couldn’t scratch my head without… had a bunch of cousins taking turns with the clippers. Family is with you through the journey and that’s how I involved kids/teens/those that act like kids… Its coming back gray, originally brown, and is almost 1” long.
you posting this one week after i shaved my hair for the first time ever is so cool, i thinked about doing it for like 3 years before doing it and i love it so much i feel so pretty like this
This video was a sign. It is time! 💇🏾♀️
omg????
Record it so Brad can react 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I am totally with the first girl, the first cut is always the hardest & I have done this several times in the last 5 years, it always nervwracking & the adrenalin after that first cut is freaking unreal. And now that you reminded me my hair getting a bit to long again so time to charge my clippers, thanks for reminding me of this weeks goal of buzzing my hair of.
#4 Meredith! WOW. She went from cute to super model chic. Holy moly. Just, wow.
Chic* not ‘sheik’(which is actually spelled ‘sheikh’). She’s not an Arabian leader.🤣
@@jennevermore6937 I apologize, and edited it. That is not a word in my everyday lexicon.
I love her transformation the mosttttt
I love this so much ❤️ Anyone else obsessed with Cocona from XG in her shaved head era? Hopefully this is allowed and not seen as promoting… but her hair shaved moment was the first thing I thought of watching this video. Total empowerment for these ladies!
It made me think of cocona practicing before the shoot lol
I loved Naomi’s look the most, I think if she also bleached her eyebrows to match her hair, it would really elevate her transformation. Either way she’s so stunning and beautiful ♥️
That first girl is so naturally beautiful, her face genuinely looks so beautiful with no hair, she looks amazing
they're all beautiful
I literally just shaved my head a week ago and didn’t film it. Missed opportunity! Love you Brad!
Videos like this always make me smile. I haven't voluntarily made a transformation like this in over 20 years, the last time being when I cut off 3.5 feet of hair before going to college. I had an involuntary change to my hair after a head injury, which significantly added to the trauma of that whole event. I've been growing it since and plan to continue, but I love the reminder of how empowered I felt by that huge hair chop, that summer day in 1998.
Naomi!!! she always looks beautiful!!😍💕
The last one is my favorite! She is gorgeous and that looks is so fitting for her! ❤❤
Societal ideology doesn’t necessarily equate to beauty. Feeling yourself and embodying happiness and inner peace is beauty.
But societal narrative and conditional reinforces certain looks and aesthetics implicitly and explicitly. We internalize it until we break through them.
Unless societal narrative continues to berate you and bring you down for not looking how it wants you to 🤷♀️
@@esya800she broadcast it, so its only fair to remind ppl we dont live in a fairy tale 🤷♀️ too many ppl get ridiculed for things they cant change and ppl w/o deformities should be aware and grateful they dont live this nightmare.
Omg! Yesss!😍🤳🏻I live for these headshaving videos ..lol 🥳You get so much satisfaction from shaving it all off .For me as a 52 yr old woman ,I have been shaving my hair off " 1 in or 1/2 in" for the last 5+ years and each time I do it ,I feel more and more confident .I used to care about peoples opinions ,judgements ,etc but now I just don't let it bother me. I love wakeing up each day and not worrying about styling it ...its either Hat ,beanie or nothing.😎🤘🏻
I just went from Rib cage length hair to a short French Bob. I’m 35 and wanted to do it since I was 5, but it was ingrained in me that only certain woman cut their hair that short. Ironically, I’ve never felt more feminine or like myself.
How much time per week do you save now ? :p
All that brushing & drying & washing uuuhhhhgggg
i dont understand how some people call a bob short hair. that is incorrect. a pixie cut is short. a bob is medium length. long hair starts at shoulder length. honestly, no one needs hair longer than shoulder length.
@@robopechawho cares? Hair is hair and people have preferences. Personally, I have hair that’s almost past my boobs. To me, a bob hair cut is short. Anything from bald to shoulder length is short hair, then shoulder length is medium to long hair and anything past that is long hair. And maybe people don’t “need” longer hair than shoulder length, but many of us like and want it. I’m trying to grow my hair to my bum (again) because I like it. Other people prefer their hair shaved, short or medium length and that’s fine too. Maybe don’t judge people for their hairstyle choice?
@@MileyObsession96 what a useless reply. it doesnt even make sense in reply to what i wrote.
@@robopecha you said you don’t understand how people call a bob short hair, I’ve told you why some people call it short hair. I also answered the last part about why no one needs hair longer than shoulder length, because they want to. What aren’t you getting? It’s other people’s preferences, and opinions. Maybe a bob cut isn’t short to you, and maybe you don’t like long hair but to someone else a bob cut is short and people like or want long hair because they feel like it?
oh my god shaving it did WONDERS for that third girls face shape! It rly brought it out, she looks great!
Shaved mine over the summer in order to do my gray transition. It’s extremely liberating! ✌🏼💖✨
When I was in college, I buzzed my hair and dyed it neon orange. It was such a mood, highly recommend 🧡🧡🧡
I love Naomi John, she looks good no matter what. Her confidence is inspiring
i love these videos so much. it’s so fun watching someone start over on their hair journey
I think all four of them have my heart because they all look so beautiful even before they cut their hair. And now they look even more gorgeous without it. 🤩❤
I have alopecia, it grows back to a few inches, then falls out again 😢. I just keep it shaved now to avoid the emotions and actually enjoy the freedom and ease.
Same here :/ I shaved my head almost a week ago and it feels very liberating. I had long hair but it was thinning on the top and sides. It looked way worse when it was wet and it caused me more pain than anything. I put a lot of power into my hair and since I'm very shy, I would hide behind it like a security blanket. I'll be wearing a wig or a scarf when I'm out in public, but I feel so much better than I did before 🥲
Same. Finally, I was unable to hide it this year. I shaved the last few chunks on my birthday. It's so weird though. I was excited, but halfway through, I cried. I've never been very femme, and always was very alt, but beauty standards still... hurt my feelings lol.
I’m certain you look stunning! I’m sorry you don’t have more natural options but wigs look so good nowadays!
I've considered shaving mine as well (I also have alopecia) but I don't think it would look good on me
@@jenewokfor me as well. Thankfully I only had a huge spot that's growing back in nicely, and two very small spots on my neck, so I still have hair to work and hide it. But if my huge spot would appear again, I don't know how many times I could do this, the process was so exhausting. I would look horrible being bald tho :/
I shaved my head almost 4 years ago to the day. I loved it. It was so freeing! I always say I want to do it again at some point and do fun colors! So I love hearing Brad say that! ❤❤
I've shaved my head 5 different times and have never regretted it! And Brad, i went raw baby! I would constantly bleach and color it. It was always so fun. This is making me want to shave it again and my hair is just growing out from my last shave. I'd never gotten more compliments on my hair or lack of it. They all killed it! Ps I love you Mr Mondo ❤ #newlook #bold #shorthair #selflove #hairtransformation
Yes girl absolutely!!! I’m the same!!!
I watch these videos with no intentions of changing my hairstyle, Brad just comforts me
they have so much faith that their heads are smooth lmao, I swear mine has dents I'll never shave it
I was going to say the same thing. I swear my head looks like the alien queen in "Aliens ". 😂
10:21 Omg it’s Naomi aka my queen and my wife😫🩷
Oh really? In this case you've the most beautiful wife ever and very bold at that😅❤
britney didn’t shave her head bc she was unstable that just fed into the narrative that allowed her to be controlled for 13 years :/ i’m reading her book rn and she said she saved it for the same reasons as the first girl, her hair was her power
I got it even then and was allways wonder why everyone else didn't get it.
@@Annie4691 stop talk about Britney like she is worthless and crazy. You just rude
@@AnniCarlssonIt's rude of you to equate mental health issues to "worthless and crazy"
I wish someone sat me down back then and explained to my child self that how the media was treating people like Britney, Paris, Lindsay, Courtney (a minor!), and many others was spectacularly inhumane.
I’m not a fan of her at all but I can’t help but feel for her the little bit of her story I’ve picked up from media. That viral guy “ LEAVE BRITTANY ALONE” is SO me 😢
Omg i am so happy. I had commented a while back that i wish you offered a dark brown color for us girls that want to stay natural color and not get crazy with bright colors. I just saw that you now offer dark brown. I am 40 and have a lot of grays coming in. I have never dyed my hair. Wish me luck!!!.
I've done that!😁 It was very interesting to see all the scars on my head.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh my gosh 😍 all girls look SO GORGEOUS with the buzz cut! ❤ the last one took my heart away
“Hello Beautiful” from Brad makes me so happy ❤
These ladies killed it! They all pulled it off in their own unique way. I especially loved Courtney's and Naomi's look. I'm still building up the courage of going bald/buzzy for probably 10 years now. I got as far as cutting my hair REALLY short at some point last year and once in my 20s. x)
I had this playing in the background and then saw Naomi and got confused like "wasnt I just watching brad?" 😆
These are so fun! I think the last one looked the best, but I loved the attitude of the first one. I want more of these. I totally shaved my head when I was about 13. I don’t think I even had a guard on the razor. It was so liberating. I agree that everyone should do it once.
Brad it feels that none of them were truly excited with the results, but enjoyed the third girl and it was very awesome that she donated her hair.
They all look so pretty! My fave is the first one, but I love that they all had good attitudes about it and looked great in the end!
I love this! You are one of my favourite UA-camrs and are reacting to one of my other favourite UA-camrs, Naomi Jon ❤❤❤❤
You have officially become my comfort UA-camr Brad! Nobodies videos hit right before bed like yours do 🥰💖
Right? Good night sleep❤
Vida was my fave! She looked SO good!
I’ve definitely thought about shaving my head- but haven’t done it because I have weird bumps on my head 🤷♀️and I also like the wildness of my natural curls
9:43 omg her face got so bright right after she shaved it!
I love love love the message the first girl got across she had a dramatic change with a beautiful message. I love that she had no regrets and maintained such a fun and positive attitude. She is beautiful with and without hair and either way she had so much confidence. Me personally I don't think I could do that and she is so bold. Society doesn't know what beautiful is everything is beautiful and she really shows how different or unique is good. It was a big change for her and I hope others will appreciate her point.
Yeess, the young lady who donated her hair. I was telling myself "she should color it pink!!! She did and she probably looked cute AF!
They all look beautiful! I would do this, but I think I would look like a potato!😂
I thought the same as well but when you don't have hair it allows everyone to focus on the beauty of your face. Being confident in your skin is true beauty ❤
@@pricellamurphy3376my head shape is too ugly :(
They all look so confident and amazing at the end! It really does change the whole vibe.
Absolutely love this video! I shaved my head in the chemotherapy process and I was amazed by how good it felt! I don’t have the ideal head shape for it, but man it felt good! I was shocked by how cold I got sometimes though, the first time I was in an air conditioned room I totally about froze! I’m in the growing out process now and honestly I find it so tempting just to zip it all off again! It is absolutely liberating!!
You look so pretty in your profile pic with short hair!
@ lol, yeah, I look good in my AI pic with short hair.
I LOVE the shaved head look on ladies! I have never done a fully shaved head but I have come close to just going for it. 100% amazing style.
Been doing it since I was 15 on and off. I'm 45 now and it's no big deal to me. Remember: it will grow back. So if you feel like doing it, just go for it.
That was Fun.. 😁 They ALL Look Gorgeous no matter what! I always cut the Ponytail’s with clippers. It goes a lot faster & You get a clean cut too!
I buzzed my hair in college and it was the best! I’m now 36 and this is making me wanna do it again!
Hey Brad! Love watching your videos you always bring a smile to my day :) Thanks for being you!
Yessss 13:34 love that look on her
I loved that Vida donated her hair. ❤
There is a high the day you do it then you wake up the next morning 😂 💀
Hahaha... exactly. Been there, done the rollercoaster of emotions...😅
I’m usually not a fan of the shaved head look on anyone, but omg that first girl looks incredible! One of the few times I actually prefer someone with their head shaved. She absolutely rocks it and I hope she likes it cause damn!
Honestly, everyone in this video ended up looking pretty cool.
Naomi obviously wasn’t super happy with it, and it’s not one of my favourite looks on her, but she still rocks it
They all look beautiful, so it's hard to choose one. Love their new looks.🎉
They’re stunning! I did that to my hair earlier this year and it felt amazing
the way I clicked on this so fast.. also I live in Abu Dhabi and have been anxiously waiting for my clear gloss to arrive im so excited to use it
They all look so good! I love the confidence they radiate after. It’s a huge transformation!
All of them looked more beautiful with bald heads than with hair but the second one was my favorite. That blonde hair with her face made up was wow! Cute with long hair to sexy badass mostly bald. Love it!
I shaved my hair 3 years ago completely inspired by watching your reaction videos watching other women shave their heads, and absolutely, that feeling of adrenaline when you're cutting the long hair off is HUGE!
This makes me want to do it again. 😅
9:06 That was the loudest lowercase scream I’ve ever heard 😂
Love these!! I've had my hair cut shooort after before with under shaves and now and rocking a side shave and love it!! Have had a side shave now for like 5 years.
Bangs with a shaved head - like Spike's best friend on the OG Degrassi Jr. High.
SPIKE! I remember she was awesome.
That is called a Chelsea cut by the way
Another amazing video! I would definitely vote for Meredith. PS... to Brad... I wish you lots of strength on those difficult days when you are struggling to find your identity. I know many of us are so glad to see you here each week and see so much value in you and your work not just in the the UA-cam community but in the community of hairstyles and fashion!
Naomi’s look is the best!
thank you SO much for posting another one of these. i've always struggled with my hair, it's way too thick to manage, way too curly & gets so matted so easily. i'm planning on shaving my head tomorrow and i'm still terrified, but i know it'll be better for me.
CLICKED IMMEDIATELY
I love watching these videos!! I've done a big chop twice in my life and it felt so great and I loved every minute of it and when I didn't feel up to wearing a bald head. I wore a wig! LOL So it was even more fun to be whoever with whatever wig I wanted!
I've been thinking about cutting my hair for the last couple of days and then your video pop up it's the sign I needed I'm about to get ready to cut my hair off and I love your videos
That’s awesome! I wish you the best of luck!
Yesssss I love it!!!! ❤ I kept mine shaved for years & dyed it every color under the sun 🎉🎉🎉🎉 So much fun!!!!
I shaved my head two years ago and grew it out and honestly it was a very good decision. There were times I looked bad during growing out stage but honestly going bald was life changing
I have had a shaved head number 2 for over 2 years and I have never felt more beautiful. It is absolutely my favourite look and best decision I’ve ever made
I always have the itch to do this!! Maybe one day!? 👀
Loved this video! I loved it having a buzzcut. I now have a short pixie cut again but I might go back to buzzcut soon. Just love not having to style it. Love your videos Brad!❤
If Naomi is on the thumbnail, I AM CLICKING 🥦
I just shaved my locs off after 4 years, 2 days ago. Love it ❤
I can't even believe what I'm seeing. All of the women are very pretty. But when they shaved their heads... just WOW!!! All of their features just popped, and they're like goddesses now. ❤
How grateful should I be to see two of my favourite youtubers in the same video!! 😭😭 Love from brocolli club 🥦 ❤️
