While addressing comments made by community members, the French-Canadian personality kept fixing his hair, which irritated him. He abruptly halted his Reddit browsing and said he needed to trim his hair:

"Man, dude! This hair, I'm getting scissors today. I'm cutting it. I can't! Guys, I'm cutting my hair today. Yo, that's it! I'm done! I'm getting scissors. Yeah, I'm doing it right now, f**k it! I'm done. That's it!"

The streamer expressed his frustration and exclaimed:

"Just cut this (pointing at his forehead), so I can see. Yeah, I'm doing it. I don't give a f**k anymore. I'm getting scissors, I can't. Guys, I can't do it! I can't stream, I can't talk, my daily life f***ing sucks. It's s**t! I'm f***ing cutting it, man! I can't, I'm doing it right now!"

A few minutes later, he began cutting his hair. Here's a screen grab from his livestream:

"It's okay. No? Yeah, I have really thick hair. Not too bad? I feel like, maybe I need to cut more in the middle. That's fine. I think I'm good. I think I'll just go to a salon, and I'll get a; remember chat, last time, when I looked like a c*ack head, I went to an old lady? I think I'll go see her again. Get myself bleached up again."
