Crowning glory: Why people in their 20s are shaving their heads
The Hindu
In the months before joining college, 17-year-old Rishita Marripalli shaved her head.
Her inspiration was her 21-year-old sister Priya, who was motivated after seeing her aunt go through the treatment for cancer. “Rishita watched me cut my hair to donate for a cause and decided, on the spur of the moment, to do it too. But she went a step ahead and shaved her head completely,” says Priya, from Hyderabad. While Rishita’s was a spontaneous decision, 20-year-old Vinitha Madhav’s was not. “Two of my cousins and I decided to donate our hair, so we grew it through the lockdown. The feeling is awesome,” she shares, from Bengaluru.More Related News
