Mother Shaves Daughter’s Hair After She Reportedly Bullied Bald Girl With Cancer

In 2016, a viral video of a woman shaving a young girl’s head went viral. Reportedly, the woman who did it was the girl’s mother as a punishment for making fun of another girl with cancer. But you can’t believe everything you read on the Internet.

The woman in the video was speaking Portuguese and it’s not really clear what they were talking about. It just shows how she forcibly grabbed her alleged daughter by the hair and started shaving them off. But it was found out later that the same video circulated over a year earlier under a different title.

This video of a mother shaving off daughter’s hair went viral.

Media sites picked it up and reported that the shaving was a form of punishment.

It was claimed that the girl bullied a cancer patient and this didn’t sit well with the mother.

According to a different version of the story, the girl was actually punished after naked pictures of herself were found on Facebook. Other made comments about how she was not being punished for bullying or for the naked pictures but because she engaged in premarital sex.

The girl’s hair was shaved off to make her unattractive to men.

A team from fact-checking site Snopes happened to be in Brazil at the time when the video made rounds and they asked locals to translate the language. There were different responses from the locals with references to cancer and somewhere along the lines of “See what happens with your brother …”

Unfortunately, most locals can’t really make out what the women were saying while others admitted that their explanation may have been influenced by having known the supposed backstory. This leaves one thing clear – the true backstory remains a mystery.

You can watch the video below.

Nevertheless, the video was disturbing to see. And if indeed the girl may have done an unpleasant thing, the mother’s reaction was abusive. What do you think? Let us know in the comments section below.
