This boy grew his hair for TWO years for the sweetest reason

Two years ago, Thomas Moore saw his mom watching a video on Facebook about a young girl who was battling cancer and had lost all her hair.

Young Thomas made the decision to grow out his hair for two years, so that he could donate it to children suffering from hair loss as a result of cancer.

For two long years, Thomas grew out his gorgeous thick hair, keeping it in cornrows a lot of the time to maintain it.

This week, the young boy and his mother went to get his hair cut, and had enough hair to make three wigs.

But after the haircut, “he said he felt good about it and hoped it would make other people happy,” she said.

Thomas' aunt, Amber Lynne, posted a before and after shot of her nephew on Twitter, and it has gone viral.

The post has already been retweeted over 57,000 times, and has been liked by 113,000 admirers, including famous actress Zendaya!
