A new challenge has swept social media platforms in Saudi Arabia under the hashtag “#تحدي_حفيت” (Challenge of Shaving). Participants film themselves using sharp tools to completely shave their heads. This challenge has gained significant popularity, especially among Saudi youth, with many celebrities and social media activists taking part.

The “Shaving Challenge” began spreading in Saudi Arabia about a week ago, with some Saudi youths posting videos of themselves using razor blades or other sharp tools to shave their heads completely. The challenge quickly gained traction, particularly on the “TikTok” platform, where thousands of Saudis and Saudi women posted videos participating in the challenge.

Several Saudi celebrities and activists participated in the challenge, posting videos of themselves completely shaving their heads. Among the most prominent participants was Saudi fashionista Model Roz, who posted a video that garnered millions of views.

The challenge received significant interaction from Saudis, with many expressing their admiration for it and participating, while others criticized it, considering it a dangerous challenge that could cause physical harm to participants.

In this context, Dr. Fahd Al-Osaimi, a professor of sociology at King Saud University, said: “The Shaving Challenge is the latest trend in social media challenges sweeping the world, reflecting young people’s desire to attract attention and break routine. However, it also carries health and psychological risks.”

Al-Osaimi added: “Parents and schools should educate youth about the risks of such challenges and the necessity of not being drawn into them without thinking about the consequences.”

Dr. Khalid Al-Amri, a consultant dermatologist, said: “Using sharp tools to shave hair can cause wounds and scratches on the scalp, and may lead to serious skin infections if the tools are not properly sterilized.”

Al-Amri added: “I advise young people not to participate in such dangerous challenges and to seek safe and healthy entertainment methods.”

Conclusion: It seems that the “Shaving Challenge” will continue to spread in the coming period, especially with the participation of a large number of celebrities and activists. However, youth should be cautious and not be drawn into such dangerous challenges without thinking about the health and psychological consequences. Parents and schools should also play a role in educating youth about the risks of such challenges and the necessity of seeking safe and healthy entertainment methods.

A recent scientific study published on Sunday, February 22, 2026, revealed that just 11 minutes of daily physical activity can contribute to a longer life and improved overall health. The findings emphasize that even minimal movement can make a significant difference in health.

The study, conducted by researchers, analyzed the impact of increased daily movement on health. It found that individuals who engaged in 11 minutes of moderate physical activity daily, such as brisk walking or light exercises, experienced notable improvements in their health markers compared to those who were less active.

The study highlighted that these few minutes of movement can help reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases, improve metabolic functions, and enhance mental health. Researchers noted that the results demonstrate that “even a little daily movement can have a significant impact on human health.”

In a related development, a runner broke a world record in sprinting, prompting scientists to study their physical and health condition to understand the secrets behind exceptional athletic performance.

This study underscores the importance of incorporating simple movement into daily routines, even for short periods, as an effective way to improve health and extend life. The findings are encouraging for individuals who struggle with time constraints or lack motivation to exercise, proving that 11 minutes a day may be sufficient to achieve tangible health benefits.
