When mom took him to the barber shop, four-year-old Mason Lewis, who is autistic, was too afraid to get a haircut… until James Williams, a barber in South Wales came up with a solution that has gone viral.

The young boy who was recently diagnosed with ASD, needed a haircut, but this has been difficult because Mason didn’t enjoy “having scissors too close to his ears.” But the thoughtful barber, however, finally found the perfect way to cut the hair of the little guy.
