14 yo Teenager refusing a haircut

I've been trying to convince my son he really needs a trim up, you can still see the style when he had it done so wouldn't be to upsetting for him
But he's adamant that's how he wants it & it's making me anxious. It's so bushy now, and he doesn't brush & he'll wash in the shower if I'm lucky.
I'm surprised the school hasn't spoken to me about it, I need some advice please, because I'm on my own and it's difficult to get support.. I'd ask my mum to take us but she's unwell.
The barbers are out of town too
Aibu to my son?

YABU, it’s his hair!!

Long hair for boys is currently fashionable.

As long as he is tying it back for PE etc school are unlikely to care.

It's just hair 🤷‍♀️ Just leave him to it.
