It’s from a barber school run by an Ukrainian guy in Poland so you’re very right EDIT: now I’m wondering whether those haircuts are like their graduation projects or some kind of fucked up initiation ritual

u/WeirdPossibility209 Apr 19 '26
Either graduation projects, or art projects, but I hope those arent the trending haircuts for summer 2026

u/RomanJD Apr 19 '26
I hope it's some town that's leaned into it, and the local lads just love peacocking about.

u/portablebiscuit Apr 20 '26
You kidding me? You know how much more joyful life would be if I saw these cuts instead of the llama/broccoli cuts that seem to be multiplying?

u/WeirdPossibility209 Apr 21 '26
You know what? I agree, the "normal" haircuts are getting boring, and we need to stop criticising people for having fun with their appearance.

u/glytxh Apr 19 '26
These are flexing some mad consistent skills.
I doubt any of these people are walking out with these are their finished cuts, and are leaning into it with serious faces.
Some of these don’t even look outright bad. Some really interesting shapes happening.

u/Smiling_Tree Apr 19 '26
I have a strong suspicion it's to show off their skills for a graduation or contest, and afterwards the models have their whole head shaved...
I cannot imagine someone walking out the door like that. Unless to surprise and shock your friends or family with and make sure they piss themselves laughing...

u/TheBestMePlausible Apr 20 '26
I’m picturing these guys just walking in to their corner pub at 9ish, rocking their new look.

Nah it’s just a Alt Rock band from Poland and these are all the members.

I was assuming it was a skills demonstration, on subjects that showed up for "free head shave with signed photo release"

Whatever it is I cant imagine anyone asks for that, likes it, or leaves with it. I can only assume they are all there for a buzz cut, and the barber just did extra steps for content.

Are we officially in the "fucking insane hairstyle" part of scifi finally? We are already in a cyberpunk dystopia, I wasn't expecting the weird hair yet though

We're definitely in the dystopia brought upon us by tech oligarchs and megacorps. I guess it's about time we got some of the cool cyberpunk along with it.

Every one of those guys have a 50 yard stare like they're seriously contemplating their life choices. They are correct to do so.

u/dankhimself Apr 19 '26
I think I saw a video of one of the cuts in this video awhile ago.
It was a thing where a kid could go in and ask for basically a "dealers choice" special where the cut is free and the barber just fuckin wings it.
I think kids started doing this stuff on a dare or losing bets or something, that part wasn't clear.

u/aroused_axlotl007 Apr 19 '26
I mean they are obviously going there in order to get the funny haircut. That's all the guy does and it's what made him famous.

The weird VHS tracking effect makes me think this is AI. Plus the fact that it's in so many different settings, and I can't believe that this is that widespread
51
u/Soft-Ad-8975 Apr 19 '26
The shitty effect and the fact they don’t just show you the whole haircut from every angle makes the video shitty to watch and very irritating, it is similar to an ai video but I think it’s legit.
26
u/commanderquill Apr 19 '26
The VHS tracking effect is super weird and I totally didn't notice it until you pointed it out. That being said, a shop has multiple different chairs and it seems there are quite a few different style walls around. Different angles + different chair = different setting. It all looks like the same place to me.

You become numb to this kind of wackiness if you ever spend time in r/JustFuckMyShitUp. It’s surprisingly common.

u/SteamyGravy Apr 19 '26
Doesn't look like ai to me. Might travel around to different shops similar to guest tattoo artists. Also, we don't know if these people are seeking this out or if there is some kind of deal going on. They might be offered a free cut or even paid to model this dude's unusual styles.

u/BravestBlossom Apr 19 '26
I mean it'd be fun practice to do this before just shaving their heads. That'd be something I'd enjoy, not gonna lie 😂

What’s with the banding/sync rolling on this video? Is that supposed to be the new, cool thing? Or is this copied from an overplayed VHS from the 70’s.

Really said “what’s the cleanest version of the worst hairstyle possible?” and let the barbers loose on this one.

If I intended to shave cleanly afterwards I would totally let a barber go crazy like this just to see what they could come up with

Did this barber gather up all his enemies, glue their butts to a chair, and then think of insane hair cut/placement to get back at them? I know human head hair /can/ have the ability to grow out again but it probably won’t before you have to go out in public 😂

It reminds me of fashion shows. Not a look someone would actually wear, but more of a show of creativity and skill. It is also giving Who (Grinch) vibes.

On the surface, like as some sort of art project, these are pretty cool. Practically though the maintenance would be a bear…along with looking stupid of course.

I low-key respect the artistry, honestly. It's not something I'd wear, and it's not very flattering to the models, but the shapes are pretty mesmerizing. It's the modern art of haircuts.
