My husband & I live in a hut full time (off grid in the Australian bush). I’ve been cutting my own hair & his for years now. My method is to tie it in a ponytail first & flip it over the front then cut. Cheers from Oz!

Hey Chad, In our old Pioneer days back in Africa we would use wood ash and mix it with water to form lime. This in turn we would mix with animal fats and create soap. If there is some crafty manner of hunting a small pig for example and then boiling pig fat with lye (ash and water) you can create soap. Wood ash also on its own can be used for lime coating the exterior of your house in order to make it waterproof AND adding a bit of color to your walls

Chad, thank you for raising awareness to mental health. Its as important as physical health.

You are so pretty. You even look better with short hair. 🌈

Hello Chad, I've been watching your channel since your original Adobe hut short hair days, and man is it funny to see you with short hair again! Makes you look less like Tarzan! Thanks for the video brother, amazing start to the new year!

I LOVE the sky full of stars shots. ❤

One of the handful of people I've seen that can rock a mullet caveman style

That is one way to get new material to work with. I have always had long hair but always wore it pulled back and twisted (like a rope) into a bun to keep it out of the way, every day and always. It is safer - for every reason you can think of. I only took the twisted hair out of the bun to wash it or if I was going out and dressing up. In my sixties I shaved it off. Sort of like the new facial hair shadow look. Do I miss it? No. Do I look better with a shadow top? No. I'm now in my 70s, Do I worry about my beauty? No. I don't worry how I look to other people either. It's their problem. Isn't it? But I do love long hair. Always have. Always will. Chad, thx for doing this, filming it and sharing it with us. 👍👍👍👍👍

Tell me Chad is not one of, if not the toughest Men on RU-vid.

Thank you for always posting ways we’re supposed to be living as humans!!!!

rock star!!!

it came out very cool hair style,you look what i think a medieval preson would look like, really no joke

glad your back!!!

Правильно сделал, что срезал те волосы, что сгодятся теперь для крафтов предметов так сказать, а то иногда можно зацепится где-нибудь за ветки или кусты. Отдельный лайк за видео, и удачи в дальнейшем развитии канала.👍

It's perfect! Nature has everything we need naturally.🌱🌿🍃

Awe the long hair is gone? BOOOOOOO!!!! I'm so jealous of those awesome natural highlights, it's really sad to see that wonderful mane go...

Представляю как это сложно жить так даже на время видео! Вы очень мужественный человек!Мы в России ценим таких людей!У тебя есть яйца!!! )))

Greetings from the land of Persian, I wish you the best🙏👍🇮🇷

Hai Chad! Happy new year. You and yucca leaves put all the shampoo companies to shame😂. Amazing how you have developed an entire household with your bare hands and nature. Long live

"I can't detangle my hair because it froze." That's the sort of sentence that you don't think you're ever going to say until you say it.

As a tree climber I find another advantage of long hair is increased awareness of the space around my head and neck. Makes it really hard for me to accidently hit my head and also softens damage from certain types of injury as well.

Adiós a la bella cabellera de Chad, la cabellera de un integrante de una una buena banda de Rock o de Metal; lo que dice Chad sobre las ventajas y desventajas del cabello corto y largo son ciertas yo también las he experimentado y puedo afirmar lo mismo. Saludos desde Duitama Colombia.

It's such a satisfaction to see you cut down your hair! I, myself tried growing my hair, but unfortunately it got too itchy as the length got down to my neck.. I couldn't take it anymore and had it cut off. Even though I had washed my hair the night before, seeing you wash your hair with natural products makes my hair feel all tingly from cleanliness!! LOL! Loved all your videos, Chad!!

Hope your neck is not freezing now 😊. I remember needing ro grow my hair because I needed the extra warmth for my neck in Ireland. Keep warm and stay healthy ❤

I am so amazed... you are the only RU-vidr that Supports Mental Health with those Kind of Ads! You will always be my Hero Greetings from Robert Germany! :)

Hi Chad. I don't like Christmas and holidays. For me, it's unnecessary stress. Short hair suits you better. For 6 years, I have been washing myself only in clean water without detergents, both on the road and in civilization. Natural detergents are great, but I don't use them. When I'm traveling, I wash my clothes in water in a lake or river. I wish you the best of luck in your next great bushcraft projects. 😀🖖👍

When people call me crazy because im on T shirt during some good days on winter (because the temperature is good for me) ... When i see Chad hmmm x) Ty for the share Chad ! We love you'r adventure

Inspirador ,grandes enseñanzas gracias

I went over a year without a haircut during the early days of the pandemic. I hated wearing it that long - took forever to wash & rinse, and was always getting in my eyes. A pony tail helped, but I couldn't figure out how to bind it - had to ask a neighbor to show me how. (As soon as I she put the elastic around her wrist, it clicked.) My first haircut in 2021 was liberating. Now I wear a non-trendy 70s style cut - appropriate, since I'm in my 70s...

I find it funny I start growing and tying my hair up is when Chad cuts he’s hair lol. But I do gotta say he looks better with shorter hair, cutting your hair with stones isn’t a easy task just goes to show how dedicated he is

Great sponsor to help others...thanks

Hair, Hair Hair! Grow it! Show it! Long as I can grow it! My hair, hair hair, hair hair, hair! Chad is a rock star!

I’m suprised the new hairstyle actually suits you!

He already prepared the funnel filter. I'm just curious about when he will build two massive clay pots as water reservoirs, one for collecting untreated water and the other to store water ready to drink or to cook. Or perhaps dig a well... He is definitely water savvy, but get water and bring it home is definitely an endless activity, being efficient or have some stock means less time and effort involved in water needs and used for something else equally important. e.g. before to tile the floor i think it could be more important to tile the roof.

I am always impressed by the videography of your shots, even in low lighting! You provide a many excellent views of the action going on, whether hair cutting or making something. You did a pretty good job with your hair, too! Stay warm!

You are amazing, i realy wonder how do you manage to keep this life in those wild times. Keep up the good work

Thank you for talking about seeking counseling for mental and emotional needs. We're finally shifting away from a cultural bias against doing so, and it's important to de-stigmatize seeking help. In many primitive societies, there were ways for people to seek advice and receive counsel, things that were socially and culturally acceptable, even if the methods and techniques used weren't perhaps as carefully studied and refined as we currently try to do. The old joke about "basket weaving" was meant to be a modern dig at people finding mental and emotional peace in such a hands-on task, but such things have brought a bit of peace for millennia. Asking, "When was the last time you sang, or danced?" is another valid way of checking in with your emotions, associated with indigenous traditions, even if it's not Jungian or Freudian or whatever-ian in nature. And sometimes, just having someone *listen* to you in a non-judgmental way is a treasure beyond compare. So the more we can get quality mental and emotional healthcare looked upon as an acceptable, accepted, and necessary thing, the better. Thank you!

Most Excellent

Using the Ashes (solution of ash in water) would be very good and effective for washing the fat out if the hair, as well.

I learned long ago not to cut off my head sweater in winter.😅

It's going to be weird seeing you with short hair Tarzan because I'm use to seeing with long hair but it's a great look for ya without a doubt :)

Chad you forgot to say also that long hair gives you strength , come on Sansom you know it. I also have long hair, that was a radical cut brother.

I love these videos you made it is entertaining and you always make my day when you make new videos and you always be the best ❤

respect!!!

You are the real Chad !

Well done on the hair cut…look like a man again👏👏💪💪

I had to do the same thing,... mine was natty natty dreadlocks, natural unkept packrat nest style, and I still miss it sometimes! haha! it is far more convenient in the bush to have less hair! All you need hair for is tracking animals!!!

Amazing❤❤

Chad, I was wondering what the temperature is in your cabin when it's only 4 degrees Celsius outside? Do you have any thoughts on insulating the hut? I know that the northern peoples of Siberia built houses from deer skins. They didn't have windows. It was dark, but warmer. In addition, Eastern Europeans closed their windows at night with small doors called "ставни" ("stavnee", shutters).

Amazing and wildlife in the forest looking 👌 ❤

great video mate

Давно слежу за твоим творчеством,ты очень крутой мужик! Привет из России

Your video is really helpful

i always had long hair, but whenever i decided to cut it short, i had to run home while crying my eyes out. i seriously NEVER got a nice haircut. doesn't matter where i went, those people in hair salon can't cut men's long hair. last year was the last time when i went to cut my hair. it ended up horribly, so i decided; i will NEVER cut my hair ever again! i don't care what people think, i will just let it grow. watching you cutting your nice long hair was kinda satisfying tho xd (but also a sad moment.)

I totally agree. My hair used to be butt length. But my super thick curly hair was so my work I cut it short. I can't imagine taking care of long hair in a primitive situation.

14:23 I can only imagine how it smelled in the hut for the next 10+ minutes 😂

Из таких материалов можно сплести тетиву для лука и поохотиться на кабанов...😊

I’m waiting for him to create a new bigger room next to his hut for his bedroom 😁 is it just me or someone else here thinks that would be great?

Happy New Year Chad. Make a scarf with your cut hair

You rock that haircut man.

You are double ruggered! Wow! I’m glad my hairdresser isn’t in your house.

I like your all videos.

And living primitively is the ultimate psychologically sustainable lifestyle. But not to worry if you can't do it, or are simply not ready, or as practiced as Chad. You can start with BELIEVING primitively. That will be a good start.

You are amazing 🤩

I really like this kind of videos but bro you're crazy and strong congrats bro continue we really like that

Having been growing my hair for 2 years now, I can say without a doubt I love it, but it does get to be a bit of a hassle. Still not cutting it though lol

Оо, привет друг, как ты? Давно не был на твоём канале, думал что уже что нибудь поменялось, а тут все также приятная обстановка :)

Chad you're amazing talented, I'm sure 1 day you gonna be 10 million subscribe 😊☺️

I❤❤❤❤❤❤ your videos Sir and your technic is so good 🙏🙏

Nothing feels quite like a haircut after years without.

El verdadero subrival

I like your new hair style 👍

Seus vídeos são incríveis, são geniais!

My biggest Respect for Mr Zuber

Hello Chad, about your first recomend I feel very identified with what you said about Christmas, the stress it brings, anxiety and feelings of loneliness. I overcame it with time, meditation and my analytical character. It was not easy but I think I overcame it.

I never thought that would happen

Chad love the videos, but ive always wondered what amount of time are you usually living in the hut? I know you have to return to "Society" every now and then for business and well editing charging of batteries and whatnot. Not to break down the fourth wall, but what is the normal Chad month while filming like?

Oh man u did it 😂 I lost my hair from too much fasting and I felt so cold all the time. You have gorgeous hair, you should get that Tommy Lee messy hair style. Love the JM quote.

Always watch your video, hope you make new challenge,your video also increase our general knowledge it's provided a lot of useful information and tactics to survive

It’s interesting how it snows in the dessert

;Great video

Chad's epic mane, gone but not forgotten 🙏

I can't believe it! The last time I cut my hair was around the time you stopped cutting your hair years ago.

the true chad

Hey Chad, as a psychology student, Its awesome to see something of mental health o a RU-vid chanel, thanks for promoting mental health ❤❤❤

Alrighty then. Good start on the haircut (I am assuming that you’ll get a good cut from your stylist when you return to town😊) now, grow your chest hair to compensate for the hair that you’ve cut off up top😉!

yes, leap year!!! time to cut your hair!!!

I'm sad to see those beautiful locks gone! But with that being said you look handsome either way 😉😊🇨🇦 love from Canada 🇨🇦 💕

Don't worry Chad, it will grow back!

Wow you look so cool like the old one I used to watch on that channel 😊😊😊😊 You should compare your hair style with old one Now you are looking soooooo young 😼😼😼😼

When I talked to ya you said you were gonna do it… you did it!!!! Obsidian is a wonderful thing!!! I’m sure you know about obsidian mountain, been thinking about spending a day up that way.

Please make video how do you cut your nails

Bet it felt great

Epic video. I had long hair down to my waist when I was a teenager, loved it cause it got the girls. Hated it because it was always in my face when the wind blew and when I was eating. I remember how light my head felt after I cut it. 😂 I have kept the hair on top of my head buzzed off ever since. Been 2 years since I shaved my beard though. 😂 Gonna feel strange when I cut it one day.

Have you ever thought of starting a natural hair cosmetics business with this yucca? I am from Central Europe. Czech Republic. Here, older people washed their hair with chamomile and birch leaves.

2 months ago I also cut my hair the decision is very tough but yeah it really helps to save time

I growing my hair almost 11 years (it will be in February), I'm 24 now. Many people saying cut it but I will not beacuse I feel like it became part of me and I can't imaging myself with short hair. Most of people who reacting my hair are women, but for a year it's getting more often that young girls (15-25 years old) reacting when they look at me. My mother who always support me and my long hair shared me an interesting fact about long hair for men, in many cultures the long hair for men means "freedoom" and "Free Will".

It may have been easier to use a burning stick to sear the hair instead of the very dull rock knife.
