    Can confirm the guy side of this. Have shaved my head in moments of crisis. Not something I consciously considered before doing it. Just felt… Idk, claustrophobic and needed to do something.

    Also, when my mom was in the hospital last year, had I been able to get in with one, I would’ve had a tattoo by the time she got out.

      I’ve done it before too, lowest point in my life, just grabbed some scissors and cut down my long hair :(

      A little upsetting to see people calling it a trope, when it is a real reaction to trauma :/
