A childhood belief about hair

I used to take my bath with my older sister. Our favourite game was to pretend to shave ourselves with soap and our father's razor blade, the security cap on of course. Once, I tried the blades on my arm without the cap, but my sister got so scared that I could do it again and injure myself, that she told me thtat if I shaved my hair once again, it would grow very long and I would turn into a beast. And my mother confirmed. Scary, all the more that I started to feel bumps on my forehead, and thought there was horns growing...
