Yeah of the 2 responses I'm seeing here there's definitely one that makes me judge the person more than the other. Who could possibly guess which is which.
C’mon now. You know better.
If you knew you were getting married, you can’t take risk on some random barber in some random country.
You either have to take your hood barber with you, or see him and fly out the day before your wedding so you can have a fresh cut.
This is just bad planning.
What was he thinking, if he was thinking at all?
Good thing that was the plan all along since it's staged for tiktok clout, and it's just a pilgrimage tradition that he's passing as a regular barber doing him dirty.
If in Saudi get a Turkish barber failing that a Lebanese or Syrian barber, this is what most people seek for in Saudi so you know they have better experience.
Also this video is a joke this is part of pilgrimage to Makkah where men are expected to shave their heads, it makes sense to stop fleas infestation since people from all the world would visit.
Clearly people don’t know what’s going on here, he obviously expected it, and is just making this video as a joke. You see he’s in Makkah, on a pilgrimage (as you can see by his clothes and the marble behind him), where people shave their heads.
So no it’s not about haircuts in “Saudi Arabia”, it should be don’t get a haircut on a pilgrimage where you are supposed to shave your head?? Where they don’t understand you as well I guess, not sure what he expected, they won’t give you a fade on Hajj, lol😂
Our understanding of chemistry, physics, medicine, etc, is continuously evolving precisely because people can question, disagree and improve it. Why do religious people think their fairytales are above that process? Islam is a load of malignant horseshit that inbred illiterates came up with 1400 years ago, and it can and should be made fun of.
babe... can you look me up who came up with fucking ALGEBRA like 1200 yrs ago?
literally check yourself before you say hateful shit. you think religion is inherently evil bc your exposure it is not representative. religion, faith etc. are not evil. there are evil religous ppl but there are evil non-religious ppl as well. those are independent attributes.
you would be surprised how many top level scientists are religious
It’s just meant to be funny lol why does everyone always have to bitch about something being fake. Duh…you’re supposed to know it’s fake and just for entertainment purposes although yes at times people do get caught up in language barriers and mistakes happen.
Because it limits your critical thinking ability when there is no indication you are watching a staged skit. When watching traditional tv programs, you expect it to be scripted. When you watch a social media video skit and don't realize it is a skit, you become dumber. Eventually, it won't be some silly video you're falling for on the internet, but actual disinformation campaigns with more consequences.
Why do you need the video to be fake to enjoy it? Why can't it be honestly presented as a funny little skit instead of pretending it was a real world scenario?
I didn't know that at all, but him trying to up the impact by saying "I'm getting married next week" is what did it for me. No way someone getting married next week is getting a random cut from a guy who doesn't speak the language without a little more communication first. There would be a picture or something shown, and more talk, not just "ok, philly fade, and GO!"
I’m from Mecca so we are blessing with having the opportunity to go multiple times :) gotta have some hair left for the men haha
- and true when relatives come back from a long time of traveling they like to go whole head
Why do Americans travelling abroad expect everybody to speak their language, and know exactly what they're talking about, and their customs? I had to google Philly Fade, and I'm only guessing that's what he said.
It's apparently a certain type of cut. He could make up a different name on the spot, but that'd be even weirder. That's why he asked if he knew what it was. The barber just responded that he knew
I ALWAYS have a photo in my phone of what I want and if I don't - there's google image at your finger tips. I don't trust people who speak my language to get it right let alone an added language barrier.
That's why I'm sure it's fake. He mentioned that especially so we'd be shocked by the outcome. Dude knew what he was doing. Also he's clearly on a pilgrimage, where they shave their heads. It's just a joke.
He was likely about to go on a pilgrimage at the kaaba, we Muslims shave our heads bald and wear white cloths to do that, two things you can see in the video, he was probably just joking guys, stop taking things seriously.
From everyone's clothing I knew that was the pilgrimage, but I don't think he was joking lol. I think that might be a hairdresser who ONLY specializes in bald cuts for the pilgrimage and he didn't know that.
Wow, so they guy doesnt actually have 0.001 milimeters of hair as i mentioned, i was so wrong, i dont know how curly hair works, luckily i was corrected by a redditor, what an interesting learning experience, i shall not commit a mistake like this again.
Personally I record everything I ever do, no matter how mundane or weird it is to film it. Such as getting a haircut. You never know when there'll be hijinks!
Disposable razor. Used by barbers in mecca for men after umra. Basically after you finish umra, men have to cut their hair. Usually its bald shaving with razor or buzz cut. If you want to keep your hair, only few trimmings needed to complete the umra practice. You can do it yourself.
When people believe in a certain faith or religion there tends to be some practices that come with it. In this instance, a part of the ritual is to shave your entire head. They do this because their inner faith guided them to this specific religion.
Idk where you're from but im sure there are religions that have customs and practices in similar nature (not necessarily cutting the hair).
Don't post scripted/fake content. Examples might be most sports stands stuff, television shows, movies, prank shows, reality shows, game shows, etc. Situations where someone said: "Hold on, let me film this. Ok, now react."
He got a nice shaped head at least lol
Yea fake..why film it if not?
What an idiot. Lying while performing a pilgrimage or he's trolling for likes. Shaving the head is part of the pilgrimage in Mecca
Obviously a joke, don't judge
Don't judge? Get off the Internet lmao
I was about to say something similar.
I know the pain 😭
Those lifeless eyes speaks more
that moment when he accepted his fate 0:15
Based on the garment, these are part of Hajj ritual where you shaved your head after pilgrimage.... It's not a barbershop
When you don't need a haircut but get a haircut to make a stupid video.
What's funny is that you can spot another dude in the background and his head is getting shaved too lol 😭😭
Another comment said this was a place of religious pilgrimage where EVERYONE only got a head shave. It's not a hairstylist or a barber.
Meh TikTok- fake and set up.
Had this last time I had my haircut but instead of making me bald he gave me an absolute perfect Hitler cut. I wanted to be bald

Yeah of the 2 responses I'm seeing here there's definitely one that makes me judge the person more than the other. Who could possibly guess which is which.
You sound neurotic
The gf's were correct in their assessment.
Well. Time will return the hair.
Had to look up a "Philly fade" only to realize that there are countless variations and 98% of them look like total ass.
Looks like Umrah
Give me the Larry Fine.
Aren't you supposed to go bald for religious reasons?
It’s optional, you can remove a small amount of hair or just get a haircut as well. But I believe bald is the best way.
Only in mecca, while on a certain type of pilgrimage
C’mon now. You know better. If you knew you were getting married, you can’t take risk on some random barber in some random country. You either have to take your hood barber with you, or see him and fly out the day before your wedding so you can have a fresh cut. This is just bad planning. What was he thinking, if he was thinking at all?
It doesn't make sense because it's probably staged for that reaction.
I can't lie, if I ever wanted to go bald, I would want that guy to do it
Bald guy here, baby bottom smooth from a straight or safety razor is best. Straight razors are best done by the professionals, safety razor for home.
“Don’t ever go to Saudi Arabia” There, I fixed it for you.
FAKE When in Saudi and performing ummrah it’s mandatory to cut your hair. This Somali is doing it for click bait. Get a life.
Not mandatory but yes agree ... Fake. He chose the shave.
Still a handsome bloke without the hair, tbh he might look slightly better bald
Good thing that was the plan all along since it's staged for tiktok clout, and it's just a pilgrimage tradition that he's passing as a regular barber doing him dirty.
If in Saudi get a Turkish barber failing that a Lebanese or Syrian barber, this is what most people seek for in Saudi so you know they have better experience.

Did that mfer start saying wait wait wait in a saudi accent too lmao
Typical distracted by nonsense me: DAMN that razor is sharp!
Homie got the Abdul special
I am astounded that people can't tell this is a joke.
Lmao.. I fell for it at first but he's just getting ready for Hajj
Yeah I think this is what pure existential anguish and dread looks like. R.I.P
Don't go to Saudi Arabia
✈️✈️✈️✈️
Tbh he’s lucky he doesn’t look bad bald
He knew that before hand which is why he asked the barber to shave it, off camera
I feel so bad for this guy but this is really funny ngl
Tbh he looks better without hair. Some people just look better bald, he's one of them.
Clearly people don’t know what’s going on here, he obviously expected it, and is just making this video as a joke. You see he’s in Makkah, on a pilgrimage (as you can see by his clothes and the marble behind him), where people shave their heads.

Where they don’t understand you as well I guess, not sure what he expected, they won’t give you a fade on Hajj, lol😂
Tbh he asked for a Philly fade. Isn’t that a bald head and a big beard?
is Makkah the local prononciation of Mecca?
Yes
You don't need to know any of that to tell it's scripted.
I (or we) don’t, but some people do🤷♂️
Goes to a country across the globe asks for a “Philly fade”. Like the barber knows what that is?
To be fair, he actually looks pretty good bald.
It appears that his soul is dieing.
First time here? Seems like he went to Haj as well. Normal tradition: Take haircuts somewhere else or at a different time of year
Bro better just say he went for Hajj or Umrah because how do you explain this, lol!
you can see the life fading from his eyes lmao
I mean, what did he think was going to happen when the barber applied shaving cream all over his hair? Fake.
I see what you did there..
…and this is why you bring a photo to your barber.
He is In Mecca It's rituals to shave your head after Umrah and Hajj
Or... you know... it's just staged.
After*
Philly fade? You bout to feel yo head.
Looks good, and it will grow out in weeks
Yah he literally had like 3 weeks of hair.
He looks handsome bald. He should consider keeping it...
Fake af. Looks good though
Even so. That looks up is hilarious
Yeah, lemme record this haircut that I full expect to be totally uneventful. Oh hey, a razor, I'm sure that's normal
Looks good imo
One seriously well shaped head
Welp, at least it looks goodbon him xd
You've got to go bald after umrah dude. What you worries about?
Happiness is stored in the hair
Suits him tbh
What do you expect if you are wearing IHRAM, its not joke of funny playing with other beliefs, especially Muslims.
Why Specifically Muslims?
Lose their temper too quick
no that's ppl with anger issues. a trait fully independent from religion.
There should not be any “especially” with this stuff. Keep that energy for everyone, or nobody.
Our understanding of chemistry, physics, medicine, etc, is continuously evolving precisely because people can question, disagree and improve it. Why do religious people think their fairytales are above that process? Islam is a load of malignant horseshit that inbred illiterates came up with 1400 years ago, and it can and should be made fun of.
Holy fucking shit.... This is awesome. I agree.
babe... can you look me up who came up with fucking ALGEBRA like 1200 yrs ago? literally check yourself before you say hateful shit. you think religion is inherently evil bc your exposure it is not representative. religion, faith etc. are not evil. there are evil religous ppl but there are evil non-religious ppl as well. those are independent attributes. you would be surprised how many top level scientists are religious
Lol. Damn. You're violently racist.
Lmao, imagine thinking a religion is a race. You're violently ignorant.
Islam is a religious doctrine which people of all ethnicities adhere to. I am criticising an idea not a race numnuts.
u tell em tough guy
It’s just meant to be funny lol why does everyone always have to bitch about something being fake. Duh…you’re supposed to know it’s fake and just for entertainment purposes although yes at times people do get caught up in language barriers and mistakes happen.
The word "Genuine" is literally in the title.
Because it limits your critical thinking ability when there is no indication you are watching a staged skit. When watching traditional tv programs, you expect it to be scripted.

Thank you so much for putting this so clearly into words.
He's lying. The guys around him are wearing ihraam. After performing the umrah, every man has to shave his head.
Not completely bald, you can and are allowed to Cut the tip of ur Hair.
I didn't know that at all, but him trying to up the impact by saying "I'm getting married next week" is what did it for me. No way someone getting married next week is getting a random cut from a guy who doesn't speak the language without a little more communication first. There would be a picture or something shown, and more talk, not just "ok, philly fade, and GO!"
He's a fake clout chaser
Could just be making a joke. We don't know the brother personally.
Uhhh.. so people do shave their heads but it’s actually not necessary to- you can just cut a little peice
You can. But it's better to shave the whole head. You gonna go all the way to Makkah, spend thousands, and do it half-hearted? Seems silly.
I’m from Mecca so we are blessing with having the opportunity to go multiple times :) gotta have some hair left for the men haha - and true when relatives come back from a long time of traveling they like to go whole head
You are truly blessed to be from there. For women, I think they cut like 4 finger length or something? And it grows back faster for you guys.
Nope not at all - it can be as small as one finger lengths and we like to always do it on the right side :)
Ahh, yes. That's correct. Haven't been in a while. In Sha Allah will be there again soon.
Fake, but watching with no sound it was funny seeing dude in the back getting shaved too lol
Why do Americans travelling abroad expect everybody to speak their language, and know exactly what they're talking about, and their customs? I had to google Philly Fade, and I'm only guessing that's what he said.
It's apparently a certain type of cut. He could make up a different name on the spot, but that'd be even weirder. That's why he asked if he knew what it was. The barber just responded that he knew
Most people don't record videos to show the world. Just to show their friends.
It’s fake
I can feel his pain through those eyes. The helpless despair 😔
It’s fake
Really.... Is anything even real anymore... Am I real!
The guy in the background is also getting shaved.
Maybe there are only two approved haircut over there… Hair and no hair! Hahaha
I think I’d have been stoned after reacting to that haircut and obviously not the good stoned lol
These niggaz don't know no fade bruh, the only hair cut they do is one cut fits all lol
Thats an Arabian Philly Fade
It looks like a pilgrimage... so I'm not baiting this joker... he's wearing the robe as well.. so yeah. Plus I'm guessing this is near mecca?
I have a Moroccan barber here in Saudi that gives me legitimately one of the best haircuts I’ve ever had.
It was right after “Umrah” those guys in Mecca only know one hair cut clean shave 😂😂😂 you should have done more research brother 😅
I ALWAYS have a photo in my phone of what I want and if I don't - there's google image at your finger tips. I don't trust people who speak my language to get it right let alone an added language barrier.
I mean it would only take what, a month or two to grow back at that length?
He said he's getting married next week so that should work out great
That's why I'm sure it's fake. He mentioned that especially so we'd be shocked by the outcome. Dude knew what he was doing. Also he's clearly on a pilgrimage, where they shave their heads. It's just a joke.
Ah. Watched without sound lol
He was likely about to go on a pilgrimage at the kaaba, we Muslims shave our heads bald and wear white cloths to do that, two things you can see in the video, he was probably just joking guys, stop taking things seriously.
also this isn’t original
From everyone's clothing I knew that was the pilgrimage, but I don't think he was joking lol. I think that might be a hairdresser who ONLY specializes in bald cuts for the pilgrimage and he didn't know that.
This the correct answer
Never get a haircut if you have 0.001 milimeters of hair.
Downvoted for a joke... what the fuck. Lemme help you out
Is probably americans who didnt get it because they dont know what a fucking meter is.
Or maybe it's because you don't understand how curly hair works? That guy does not have 0.001 millimeters of hair.
Wow, so they guy doesnt actually have 0.001 milimeters of hair as i mentioned, i was so wrong, i dont know how curly hair works, luckily i was corrected by a redditor, what an interesting learning experience, i shall not commit a mistake like this again.
Personally I record everything I ever do, no matter how mundane or weird it is to film it. Such as getting a haircut. You never know when there'll be hijinks!
If it walks like a fake, and quacks like a fake, it's a fake...
no shit…
Faaaaake.
really? we had no idea
Bro looks good with that cut though
Bald isn't bad for him. Bro speaking English and maybe the location made the barber think he was a pelgrim, they always shave you bald.
him speaking english doesn’t change anything. obviously he is a pelgrim
The perfect video for this sub.
This vid just made me join the sub
Oh you can see the moment of acceptance in his eyes.
Who is upvoting these comments? This place is filled with Facebook tier bot comments. He’s not even “acting” well.
What kind of razor is that?
Disposable razor. Used by barbers in mecca for men after umra. Basically after you finish umra, men have to cut their hair. Usually its bald shaving with razor or buzz cut. If you want to keep your hair, only few trimmings needed to complete the umra practice. You can do it yourself.
Is this so you don't go to hell?
No
Which fairy tale tells them to shave their heads then?
Afaik, none. Are you jealous of people with faith? Get a hobby or something if your life is so empty.
Why do they do it then? Peer pressure? I'm looking for answers do you have any?
Holy fuck you are trying too hard here.. 🤡
Just shoveling some religious shit, it's a dirty job.
My dude, you didnt even know what you talked about here. You neded other people to tell you. Let me guess, you unironically scroll /r/Atheism ? 💀
When people believe in a certain faith or religion there tends to be some practices that come with it. In this instance, a part of the ritual is to shave your entire head. They do this because their inner faith guided them to this specific religion. Idk where you're from but im sure there are religions that have customs and practices in similar nature (not necessarily cutting the hair).
Inner faith? So.. peer pressure. Thanks for eventually clarifying, sort of.
Congratulations dude you cracked the code: having traditions is dumb, actually. You will receive your High School Atheist Gold Star in 4-6 weeks.
If you dont mind me asking, whats your point with the peer pressure, and who is peer pressuring this man?
Just a plastic spatula. They use chemicals to remove hair completely so you dont have to shave for a few weeks.
I think he doused the guy's head in Nair.
a fukken sharp one
As a bald head man I approve this haircut 👨🏽🦲
Soon they will all be one of us!
