11-Year-Old Boy With Knee-Length Hair Gets First Ever Haircut for a Reason—and He Looks Amazing

An 11-year-old boy had his first ever haircut—chopping off 38 inches of his knee-length hair for charity after years of being asked why he “looks like a girl.” Aaron Gill started growing his hair after accompanying his big sister, Julianna, to oncology wards throughout their childhood. Julianna, 15, has a rare autoimmune disorder called Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP) in which the immune system starts destroying the blood-clotting platelets. Aaron has donated his locks to The Little Princess Trust, who will arrange for them to be made into wigs for children undergoing cancer treatment.
