    I can relate to him since I had a long hair (ponytail) for over a decade so I know how hard it is at first to shave it all off. I was fully aware that I won't have a long hair forever and this channel definitely helped me a lot.
    In May this year I cut my hair shorter and after like 10 days I have decided that I should just shave it all off for the first time in my life. Feeling much better now and the reaction from people is never as bad as you would think, the vast majority don't even care or say anything.
