Parents bribe teen to get haircut with PS5 – and his transformation is amazing

A 17-year-old who was bribed into getting a haircut by his parents with a PS5 has flaunted his transformation. And people have been left wowed over the results of the chop

Who doesn't cherish the feeling of a fresh haircut?

A new hairstyle can do wonders, revamping your look and boosting your confidence. Typically, a trim involves a quick call to your local salon for an appointment, with some people loyal to their favourite stylist.

However, a daring 17-year-old lad took his quest for a style upgrade to the next level and the results are stunning. Richmond Barber, a TikTok sensation with 1.3 million followers, recently revealed the teen's remarkable transformation on the platform.

In a viral video, the young client confessed his aversion to haircuts, but his parents had tempted him with a PS5 to persuade him to visit the barbershop. For a teenager, the opportunity was too good to pass up, wouldn't you agree?

He travelled an impressive two and a half hours from North Carolina, US, all the way to Virginia to get his new look from Richmond Barber. When questioned about not cutting his hair "for the girls", he retorted: "They like it like this."

The barber playfully teased him over his unruly "mop hairdo" before diving into the task, proposing a Blowout Taper cut and vowing to deliver a "nice haircut". Despite being single, the barber was convinced that his new haircut would be a game-changer in the teen's love life.

And moments later, the teenager appears utterly transformed, astonishing those watching. The clip has racked up a staggering 5.2million likes and 22,000 comments since being uploaded.

One person remarked: "Bro saved his life now he needs skincare." While another chimed in: "Why is he hiding those eyes?"

A third admirer confessed: "He looks 1,000 times better, he might pull a girl." Meanwhile, a fourth TikTok user commented: "He has so much potential."

The barber, celebrated for his remarkable makeovers, accepts appointments through his page.
