The iconic American country singer-songwriter William Hugh Nelson is famous for his long braided hair style. Nelson would wear one single three strand braid that would cascade down the back of his head. On other moments, he would wear two braids on either side of his head.
Born and raised in Abbott, Texas, Nelson is the son of Myrle Marie and Ira Doyle Nelson. Nelson wrote his first song when he was seven and he played in a local band when he was at age nine.
Fans of Nelson were shocked yesterday as the legendary Willie Nelson cuts his hair.
The waist-deep, reddish pigtails are gone. They have been one of the signature features of the singer-songwriter.
Spokeswoman Elaine Schock said that Nelson, who’s been hanging loose in Hawaii, got the hair cut in the past couple of weeks. She said that Nelson did not make a big fuss about the haircut, but she thought that the makeover was fine because Nelson might have grown tired of dealing with the braided long locks.
