Prince Harry opens up about his ‘mistake’ of shaving head

• Prince Harry speaks of a hair-shaving incident in his memoir “Spare”.
• The Duke of Sussex reveals he was pushed into a chair and had his hair cut off.
• He says he wanted to be a top bloke, not a ‘stupid’ bloke.

Prince Harry speaks of a “famous error” he committed in the past. The episode that led to the Duke of Sussex’s cheeky decision to shave off his head is detailed in his memoir “Spare.”

Writes Prince Harry in his autobiography: “Near the end of my first half we hit on something supremely stupid. Someone suggested that my hair was a complete disaster. Like grass on the moors.”

He adds: “Well…what can be done? Let me have a go at it. You? Yeah. Let me shave it off. Hm. That didn’t sound right. But I wanted to go along. I wanted to be a top bloke. A funny bloke. All right.”

The Duke continues: “Someone fetched the clippers. Someone pushed me into a chair. How quickly, how blithely, after a lifetime of healthy growth, it all went cascading off my head. When the cutter was done I looked down, saw a dozen pyramids of ginger on the floor, like red volcanoes seen from a plane, and knew I’d made a legendary mistake. I ran to the mirror. Suspicion confirmed. I screamed in horror. My mates screamed too. With laughter. I ran in circles. I wanted to reverse time.”
