2 Samuel 14:24-28
24However, the king added, “He may return to his house, but he may not see my face.” So Absalom returned to his house, but he did not see the king.
25No man in all Israel was as handsome and highly praised as Absalom. From the sole of his foot to the top of his head, he did not have a single flaw.
26When he shaved his head — he shaved it at the end of every year because his hair got so heavy for him that he had to shave it off — he would weigh the hair from his head and it would be five pounds according to the royal standard.
27Three sons were born to Absalom, and a daughter named Tamar, who was a beautiful woman.
28Absalom resided in Jerusalem two years but never saw the king.
