Mahsa Amini’s death: Women in Iran and around the world cut their hair to protest

Protests against Mahsa Amini’s death continue in Iran and around the world, with some women cutting their hair at protests or on social media to show solidarity. Amini was detained by Iran’s morality police for “improperly wearing the hijab” and died in custody.

For those who don’t understand: Mahasa Amini was a 22 year old girl living in Iran 🇮🇷 . One day she was walking to see her brother house and then her hijab was showing a bit of her hair. Next thing you know, police detained her and beat her to death.

[@Preppypink25]

Mahsa was not living in Iran she was visiting Iran.

[@brittneysomerville8236]

She was 21 she died before her birthday she was born in 2000 and she was about to be 22 years old only a few days until her birthday R.I.P #mahsaamini you deserved better

[@CallMeHunee]

I think you’re missing the point. Its not about the hair, it’s the principle & showing support & standing up for what happened to her and probably others. It’s showing they’re not scared and removing what got her killed. It’s sacred & they’re saying fuck you. That’s how I look at them at least. I’m bald already so I’m standing with the cause lol.

[@dawnwellman6232]

Yes, but these women are tired of seeing other women being murdered on the streets and they for many years out of fear kept their silence. Now this is them binding together for woman rights to stand up and do such a thing takes a lot of courage. It won't bring her back, but it is making a nation wide statement. It is now World Wide seen and has brought awareness to the situation and how these women have been unjustly treated and murdered.
