Harry Jaggard asks for Kim Jong Un's haircut in Pyongyang

A hotel barber, smartphone reference photos and a massage turn an unusual styling request into a fast-starting travel Short.

The reference photos come out on a smartphone, leaving little room for misunderstanding. Harry Jaggard has walked into his hotel's barbershop in Pyongyang and asked: "Can I get haircut like Kim Jong Un?"

The barber quotes $8, and Harry adds a request for a head massage. What follows is a surprisingly ordinary sequence for such a distinctive brief: electric clippers, scissors across the top, a straight razor at the neck, then a facial and shoulder massage before the blow-dry.

Posted on Harry Jaggard Vlogs on Monday, the Short drew an estimated 39,000 views in its first day, roughly fourteen times the channel's usual start for the format. The channel has previously turned everyday travel encounters, from perfume shopping to ear cleaning, into widely watched Shorts. Here, it is the choice of reference photo that gives a hotel haircut its hook.

The conversation doesn't stay on the hairstyle. As the barber works, Harry compares the massage to an Indian one, while his companion asks whether the hairdryer is a new Dyson. Harry finishes by asking the receptionist if the cut looks good, settling the bill and handing the barber a tip.
