HAMZA Yassin has proved he knows his way around the dancefloor, thanks to his fancy footwork on Strictly Come Dancing.
But one thing viewers at home have wondered about, is why the Countryfile star has such long hair.
Hamza Yassin’s hair flows done his waist and to below his knee caps.
Since Strictly 2022 started, fans have wondered why he chooses to have it so long.
The TV star has now revealed he started growing it 17 years ago to “rebel” against his parents who wanted him to cut it short.
Speaking on This Morning he said “I remember, my mum used to sit me down, me, my brother and my dad, and just give us the number two the whole time.
“Then I just rebelled one year, I’m like, ‘I’m done’. And that was it!”
The Strictly star certainly made the right decision, as fans and judges alike have been paying compliments to Hamza’s hair since the start of the 2022 series.
Hamza went on to reveal his flowing locks have become part of his dance routine.
“Yeah! It’s kind of like Jowita’s dress, so we kinda try and include it,” he joked.
“If the dress is flowing, let my hair flow as well!”
Hamza is a popular TV presenter and cameraman.
Fans know and love him for shows like BBC show Countryfile, as well as those tuning into Springwatch and Animal Park.
He moved to Scotland from Sudan when he was young, before studying zoology at Bangor University.
Hamza is partnered with pro dancer Jowita Przystal.
The pair have floored the judges with their incredible chemistry and dance moves, which has saw them top the leaderboard five time during Strictly 2022.
Polish dancer and choreographer Jowita, 27, started ballroom dancing at the age of 12.
In 2014 she was crowned the Polish Open Latin Champion.
In 2015 she ended her competitive ballroom and Latin career to join the cast of touring dance company, Burn The Floor, where she stayed for four years before moving to the UK in 2019.
In 2020 she won BBC’s The Greatest Dancer with her dance partner and boyfriend Michael Danilczuck after being mentored by Strictly champion, Oti Mabuse.
