This boy’s name is Christian and he is 8-year-old. He has very long hair and is sometimes mistaken for a girl, and teased by his classmates. He did not cut his hair for almost two-and-a-half years and the reason why is a very heartfelt and touching one.

His reasons are remarkable and immeasurably kind for such a young child!

The Reason for Letting His Hair Grow.

Christian was six years old at the time when he saw a particular TV commercial that featured an organization that provided wigs children who had lost their hair while undergoing treatment for cancer. It impacted him so strongly that he wanted to help. “I also want to donate my hair,” he said.

Over a period of two and a half years, he let his hair grown. Despite some hardships and teasing from his classmates, he could finally reach the length of hair that he could donate to the organization.

His donated hair was carefully placed in sealed plastic bags.

This six-year-old child has a really kind heart and a lot of dedication to achieve his goal after two and a half years. I think it is really amazing and I deeply respect his achievement!

Great job Christian!
