Kim Jong Un Is a Trendsetter

Guys, look no further than North Korea for hair inspiration the next time you’re due for haircut. Kim Jong Un has debuted a trapezoid-shaped voluminous new ‘do and has even shaped his eyebrows into what look like tiny little caterpillars.
"Kim Jong Un unveils sculpted eyebrow work and defined hair at Politburo meeting today," NK News.org’s Frank Feinstein tweeted this week. The supreme leader considers himself such a fashion plate that in the past he has reportedly even mandated that his male citizens follow his beauty predilections and visit their barber for the same exact style.
This new hairstyle Un is sporting seems to be a variation on his signature style of shaved sides and a flop of black locks on top. Typically he’s been pictured with a middle part with tuffs falling to each side yet the latest look seems more reminiscent of the flat top style that was popular in the ’80s or even DJ Pauly D from Jersey Shore, both of which are so 2000 and late. While it’s well known that the chief of the Workers’ Party of Korea loves everything ’90s, particularly Dennis Rodman, perhaps it’s time for him to brush up on his cultural references, if not for him than the sake of his people. Even Justin Bieber's mop circa 2010 would be considered passé but at least it's a little more relevant.
