Thank you for doing this drawing after the live. So often content creators do giveaways by selecting someone from the comments while they are live and since I’m at work here on the west coast, I can’t watch live. Also, I had the same haircut in 10th grade which was then followed by a weird asymmetrical haircut 🙂
