This Turkish Man's Terrifying Buzz Cut Is Too Much For Me
These days, it seems as if you can't scroll through your Instagram Explore page without seeing hair transformations that are mesmerizing, controversial, and totally weird. The viral back hair blowout video, which has racked up nearly 1.7 million views, is just the tip of the iceberg — don't even get me started on the "scarecrow" haircut. Most recently, a Turkish barber stepped into this Instagram hair trend swinging. I'm not even trying to be cute in saying that. He literally swings clippers around his client's head in his viral video.
Over the past three days, a video of Erkek Saç, from Antalya, Turkey, haphazardly shaving off another man's hair has been viewed 1.1 million times. It starts off with Saç dangling the aforementioned clippers over the man's head and letting it buzz off chunks of hair in the process. If Saç held the clippers a couple centimeters lower or if the cord swung in the wrong direction, this video would have gone viral for completely different reasons. The whole time I watched, I seriously feared his brows, lashes or — even worse — nose would be cut off instead. Heck, he could have even sliced the man's forehead open.
From there, Saç trims his client's beard before completely buzzing off his hair as any other barber would. However, he does so in a way that gives his client a momentary mushroom hairstyle. He finishes off the haircut by piling the clippings on top of his client's head and sweeping them off in the most extra way possible. Then, another person helps him slather oil onto his client's head. Yeah, it's a lot, people.
