This statement is true. Bruno greets the man he speaks with by saying, "Brighton, the star of the show". Brighton later asks Bruno what he thinks of his pictures or paintings.
This statement is true. Horatio has "cut", vandalised or ruined some of Brighton's paintings. He has done this by cutting them with a pair of scissors. To "ruin (a dress)" is to render it useless or unwearable.
This statement is false. Although Bruno calls Brighton's work "colorful", Brighton corrects him by informing him that his paintings are in "black and white".

1 haircut: A "haircut" refers to the act of cutting one's hair, or the style in which it is cut.
2 shampoo: "Shampoo" is a type of cream or liquid which is used to wash one's hair. The term is both a verb and a noun. Example: I shampoo my hair every day. Note that shampoo is often followed by "conditioner".
3 cut: We usually "cut" hair with (a pair of) scissors. Note that "hair" can be a countable or uncountable noun. When referring to the mass of hair on one's head it is uncountable (and so has no plural), for example: Your hair looks great today. When we refer to individual hairs then it is countable, for example: Waiter, there are three hairs in my soup.
4 shave: To "shave" one's hair is to remove some hair by using a razor or a shaver. In the audio, Brian says that the barber shaved his hair off. Note that adding the preposition "off" (to shave off) would imply that all the hair is being removed. Example: I didn't like my beard so I shaved it off.
5 short: To have one's hair cut "short" is the opposite of keeping it long.
6 grow: In this context, "to grow" means to "increase in size". Most hair grows, as do nails, children and plants. To have hair that "grows back" is to have it regain its original length.
