Momoa, who is well known for his thick mane in movies like “Aquaman,” shaves most of it off, pleading with the public to eliminate single-use plastics that end up in landfills or oceans and harm the environment.

“Here’s to new beginnings, let’s spread the aloha. Be better at protecting our land and oceans. We need to cut single-use plastics out of our lives and out of our seas. Plastic bottles, plastic bags‚ packaging, utensils all of it.”
