Up until I was seven, I used to believe that you had to be bald not to have cancer..
One day, my little sister was very sick and I don't know why, I used to think that she had cancer, so i decided to "save" her by cutting her hair...
I was really proud of me because I used to think that my little sister would feel better. When my parents discovered what I did, they started to scream at me, I was really confused because I didn't even know that what I did was wrong.
Nowaday, at every family dinner we make jokes about it and my whole family call me the evil hairdresser.
