Well, he did. But what is great about that is that he donated some of those chopped golden locks to Ellen DeGeneres who in turn auctioned the hair for charity on eBay. 

And guess what? The Biebs’ hair raised $40,688!!!

The lucky charity who will get the funds is the Gentle Barn Foundation, an animal rescue organization. This makes me super duper happy! 

The eBay winner and the proud owner of the Bierber locks? Golden Palace, the casino that is famous for purchasing all kinds of celebrity memorabilia. 

What do they plan to do with the bag of hair? They will put the hair on tour at Bieber concerts to raise even money for charity. This is great news on top of the news we just received that Bieber fans, at the request of the pop sensation and in honor of his birthday, raised over $40K earlier this week for charity:water.

Bieber, you are a cool cat.
