If you are a guy in North Korea, say hello to what will supposedly be the new fashion fad: Dear Leader Kim Jong Un.
This new haircut is modelled after the North Korean leader Kim Jong-un’s invulnerable block of hair on the top of his husky body. From a report, the style became a state-mandated guideline about two weeks ago even though experts familiar with the country say there is no evidence the new hairstyle has been taken up by the people.
But if this law happens to be true then it would be North Korea’s strictest haircut restriction. Additionally, this crackdown on barber shops throughout North Korea has not been the first. Last year, North Korea limited the range of men’s hairstyles to 10 and women’s to 18.
I would definitely believe something like this would happen in Korea because before Kim Jong-un became president of North Korea, BBC reported that his father, former North Korean Leader Kim Jong-il led a television campaign against long hair called “Let us trim our hair in accordance with Socialist Lifestyle”. According to the show, long hair sucks nutrients from people’s brains and makes you look like a slob. Wow, I better cut all my hair then.
We’ll just have to wait and see if this is actually true.
