The former friend was still present and acting proud of his actions. The victim called the cops, and the former friend was arrested. Now, the victim is divided - on one hand, he wants justice for what was done to him, but on the other hand, he is facing pressure from the former friend's family to drop the charges.

What started as a request to show support for a cancer-stricken relative turned into a nightmare for this man when his former friend took matters into his own hands. After refusing to shave his head, the man passed out at a party and awoke to find his head shaved and an eyebrow missing. Despite pleas from the friend's family, the man decided to press charges for assault. The incident has caused a rift in the friend group, with some supporting the man's decision and others siding with the former friend. The man has also received criticism for overreacting, with some claiming that it's just hair and it will grow back.
