The recurring problem is happening because Joshua has been growing his hair long, with many teasing him on several occasions.
But what these people don't realise is, Joshua, is completing an act of selflessness, growing his hair seven inches long so he can donate his locks to 'Little Princess Trust'.
However, not alone is the youngster growing his hair, but he's also fundraising the growth, donating the monies raised towards 'Maggie's'.
Maggie's is a centre for cancer care where patients of any age can go, alone or alongside their family, for emotional, social and practical support.
The countdown is on now though, and with Josh so close to his target, he'll hopefully be having his hair chopped this week!
The young boy deserves all the praise he can get, as having to deal with teasing and mistaken identity for almost 18-months must have been a tough road.
We think his achievement and donation to the trust is a wonderful thing for someone of his age to do, we can all learn something from Joshua's kindness.
