“Parents have shown me they have had to chop their child’s hair off, and the devastation it has caused.“You are asking someone to take away a huge part of themselves, to fit in to what is socially expected.”At the time, the little boy, who was already working as a child model, was prepared to move to secondary school while his mom expressed being terrified he would be made to chop off his locks due to school regulations.
