Andre Agassi once talked about getting rid of his long hair
During an interview, the American tennis legend revealed the actual reason for going full bald. Talking about this, he said, “I lived with a hairpiece for a long time and then eventually, just got exhausted with the preoccupation with all of it. At the time, my soon-to-be wife told me to get rid of it and cut it off. When a supermodel tells you you are still good-looking with it gone, it gives you the confidence.”
Further, he added, “I wouldn’t take hair right now if you gave it to me. It seems like a lot of time that you can use doing other things. The thought of spending 15 minutes on my hair right now seems like 15 minutes I’m not doing something else.”
