The4thKen's client has worn a durag "since 1979"
A carefully tapered wave cut is drawing fresh attention, with viewers inspecting the hairline and asking about the tools.
Why this story? The video is running at 46,111 views a day, 6.1 times its usual pace (7,570).
HE'S BEEN WEARING his durag since 1979
The crease left by the durag needs to go. The waves underneath it are staying.
That is the small but important distinction in The4thKen's "HE'S BEEN WEARING his durag since 1979", a compact transformation built around an already well-established hairstyle. Barber and narrator Four says the client has worn a durag since that year, then gets to work refining the edges rather than changing the look.
The video added roughly 46,000 views in a day, about six times its usual daily pace. Published five days ago, it is gaining attention alongside another durag-themed upload and the fast-starting "His Worst Enemy is a Comb".
Four clips down the hair, tapers around the ears and works up the neckline to remove the durag crease. Then comes the more exacting work: detailing the forehead and temples, applying enhancement spray with a shaping card, trimming the beard and finishing the hairline with a straight razor.
"Every single detail matters on a haircut like this..." he says as he works along the front.
The comments pick up precisely there. Some viewers question how far back the lineup goes; others discuss the waves, ask about the coloring or want to identify the clipper. One recalls the crisp, enhancement-free cuts of the 1990s. The transformation is brief, but the barber-chair discussion extends well beyond the reveal.
