This Young Boy Grew His Hair Out for the Best Reason

If you need a reminder that not everything that happened in 2016 was total garbage, look no further than this heartwarming story about a 10-year-old in Tampa Bay, Florida - and get ready to feel all the feelings.

According to a segment by ABC Action News, the incredible Tyler Boone has been growing his hair out for the past two years for a very special reason: He wanted to be able to donate it to the nonprofit Children with Hair Loss so that it could be made into a wig for his friend, Gabby Ruiz, who has alopecia.

"I'm growing my hair to give to Gabby - I just want to make her happy," he says in the video, prompting people around the world to start sobbing immediately.

The 10-year-old goes on to explain that while he has often been mistaken for a girl due to his luxurious long locks, he doesn't mind at all, and has been more than happy to grow out his hair if it means helping his friend out.

Having finally grown it out long enough to be made into a wig, Tyler reunited with 12-year-old Gabby - who now lives in Georgia - for the news segment, where she had the honour of cutting his ponytail off herself. The two then celebrated by getting Tyler a brand new haircut, which he admitted felt very weird after avoiding them for the last couple years.
