Hello there!
I have once posted a video similar to this one, but this one touched me. It is a Brazilian show, and it is in Portuguese, no subtitles, but for who want to watch it, here's the link:

And now I wll describe it for those of you who can't understand it ^-^
Natasha is a teenager know as the "Rapunzel of Vidigal" (name of the area she lives) who lives in a poor area of Rio de Janeiro, she had never cut her hair before (except for her fringe), and it is ankle length. However, her family is trying to afford a house to live, and she decides to sell her hair to help. Many people got moved by what she did and she received a donation of 6,000 reais (around 3K US dollars), but that still wasn't enough to help her family get a house, and so she sold her hair for 3 thousand reais (roughly 1,500 US dollars). She cried while doing it, but her mom said that no one was forcing her, it was her decision, and the stylist who bought her hair decided to let Natasha keep a few strands of her long hair as way to remember since, she was so attatched to her hair. Her father even cries when he sees Natasha with shoulder length hair, and the people who knew her before (people arround the area she lives know her) congratulate her on her courage and told her she's beautiful no matter what. At the end, she allows herself to go to the beach to dive at the sea, something she didn't do before in order to protect her hair.
