Chip Gaines, the lovable star of HGTV’s Fixer Upper, has an entirely different look now that he’s shaved his head completely bald.
Why would he do such a thing? A few days ago, Gaines said it’s come to his attention that a lot of people “hated” his signature long hair. So, he put them to the test and launched something he called Operation Haircut. He challenged his Instagram followers to donate to St. Jude Children’s Hospital, saying the more money donated, the shorter his hair would go.
Here’s the full statement:

Operation Haircut was apparently a raging success, because Chip is now completely bald. Doesn’t get any shorter than that!

Chip’s wife, Joanna, posted about how moving the experience was for her to be involved with. “We are leaving Memphis Changed,” she said, before adding “Kiddos of @stjude we go with your faces on our minds and your stories in our hearts.”
The beloved stars recently announced that this season would be the last of their insanely popular show, Fixer Upper. Judging by these antics, it looks as though they’ll have no trouble finding fun and worthwhile things to do once the show is completed!
