Man goes to the hairdresser after eight years: He immediately transforms him completely

Richmond (Virginia) - He's seen a lot in his hairdressing career. But this customer was a new "house number" even for Thai Nguyen (25). The young man recently stopped by the Figaro salon in Richmond, Virginia. Nguyen probably sensed immediately that he would land a viral hit on TikTok with this guest - and he was proved right.

In the curious video (see below), the customer sits in the salon with extremely long hair and an unkempt beard. Nguyen gets right to the heart of the matter.

"When was the last time you went to the hairdresser?" he wants to know - and causes his guest to stumble. He finally "confesses": "About eight years ago."

Nguyen is not particularly surprised. After all, his long hair doesn't look very well-groomed. But what throws him off is the answer to his next question: "How old are you?" - "22!"

The hairdresser groans in horror: "Bro, I can't even lie to you. I would have guessed you to be about 35."

Fortunately, he doesn't scare off his guest with this statement - on the contrary.

The 22-year-old is amused by his hairdresser's misjudgement - he can probably even understand it a little. But then it gets down to business.

Nguyen cuts his guest's hair considerably shorter and trims his beard. The result is a young man who looks as old as he is.

When the American sees his new look for the first time, he is briefly confused: "Damn...! What the hell?!" But then he quickly dispels any fears that he might be unhappy.

"Hell yeah bro. I'm feeling better. That weight on my shoulders is definitely gone," he says happily.

Thai Nguyen can also be happy. His video on TikTokhas received more than two million clicks and a good 200,000 likes in just a few days.
