When a Pause‑Button Became a Poor Hairstyle Decision
It all started in a sleek Chinese salon, where an unknown guy—probably looking for a snazzy new look—was glued to his phone. A hair model on the screen, sharp and perfectly trimmed, sparked his imagination.
The Key Moment
- He paused the video, thinking it could inspire his own style.
- The screen still showed that unmistakable triangle play icon—he didn’t notice.
- When the stylist asked whether he wanted to keep the ‘triangle’, he simply nodded and said “yes.”
In the end, the man’s head was adorned with two shaven triangular patches—what the salon hoped would be a trendy trend, but turned out to be a silent reminder that sometimes the playback button sticks around.
Virus‑Level Reaction
Weibo exploded with over 78,000 likes and 20,000 comments. One fan praised the stylist, saying:
“There aren’t many hairstylists as meticulous as him.”
Another added: “This is actually pretty handsomely slick—could be the next big thing?”
Definitive Takeaway
The viral clip shows the man strutting down the salon, confidently flaunting his new haircut, despite the questionable choice. If you’re at a salon and see a community screen with a play icon, just remember: make sure you’re not asking for a haircut that’s out of sync.
