As a barber myself, it is extremely hard to keep clients happy who are almost convinced that their hair is going to look bad regardless of who is cutting. This lad is clearly upset with his situation, especially at such a young age, and we can all sympathise with him. I do believed that Dan did exceptionally well to work under the limitations he had, in regards to the client's desires for the cut. Dan is a master, I have learned a lot from his videos, especially from the consulation aspect of barbering. Working with any client and exceeding their preempted expectations means the world to us. Unreal as always Dan !

[@gmf4769]

I agree can’t do Any more than what he did that’s for sure

[@Benjorunner]

As a barber you should not let your client leave looking like he stepped out of an unfinished cut. It looks soooo bad, so even when this is what the client asked for how can you go along with this knowing you did not the best job possible in this situation?

[@matheus30331]

​​​@@Benjorunner why you defining doing exactly what your client want as not the best job possible?? If your opinion differs from your client try to communicate and change his mind but what he wants is best. The main problems that I had with barbers is; one, they did a haircut different from what I asked; two, they did something "assuming" is what I wanted without bother asking me. Doing something different of what asked for can give good result but is risky. Communicate.

[@Benjorunner]

@@matheus30331 I agree

​@totally agreeBenjorunner

[@FrancisMolko]

Poor lad, can see the hair loss has affected his confidence. Wish he had just given Dan full control. I never understand why someone would go to an expert like Dan but put so much limitation on what he can do.

[@cazzaa5012]

Totally agree with you. I don’t know how Dan keeps his cool either, in this type of situation. He knows better than anyone what would look good. It’s a missed opportunity we’ve just witnessed.

[@Arman-ch5vi]

Ye i dont know how dan kept his cool and didnt beat the shit out him whilst crying and screaming. Dan indeed knows best and verily this man chose wrong. Honestly this man should be glad an expert hero like dan kept his cool

[@DesTorix]

I know this is a hair channel and the series is all about dealing with a bad hairline but I really want to say that this guy would look great with a shaved head. He has the eyes and the facial structure for it. Plus he also has facial hair which is always a bonus. I think going for that bald look would make him look badass and much more confident!

[@wonkydonkey7899]

He doesn’t want to be bald 🧑‍🦲 and is wishing to have longer, thicker curly hair. It takes a great deal of courage to shave your head completely. Unless the baldness is too far gone and that becomes the last resort.

[@CollaborativeDog]

Yes, shaving his head would give him that hard sexy look like Jason Stratham. But this young man is only 20 yrs old, and keeping his hair maintains a softer, sweeter look that might fit his personality better.

[@IWTBF]

25:42 is great look

[@xhead75]

That's what I was thinking too. He would be completely liberated from the uphill battle as well.

[@TobeySharpe]

Dan has the nicest way of talking with his customers about sensitive topics.

[@ShawnG-kv2xm]

Dan did an incredible haircut for this young man. I agree that just shaving it off or going shorter is not always easy especially for one that is losing hair and is probably already self conscious about it. For some, hair loss and shorter hair may just elevate those insecurities. He looks awesome. If a mullet makes him feel good, to each his own. This guy is only 20 years old and has so much time to evolve his hair look. Kudos to Theo for sharing his experience and journey with hair loss. Kudos to Dan for creating an experience for him that showed kindness and care with an excellent hair cut.

[@giannishen]

I like this barber's new hairstyle. I think he can not only shoot 007, but also the new Miami Vice. He is so handsome!　 Really great job, thanks a lot for sharing！👍🤩👏

[@timw2498]

Well done, Dan. The look is horrible, but it’s what he wanted.

I think you can see from the look on his face at the end of the video that he doesn't really like himself with this haircut either.

[@AM-nv4ol]

🤣🤣🤣🤣agreed lmfao

[@edpone8600]

You are right, it looks like dogshit hahaha) However, if he wanted it, then fine.

[@xxclusive8380]

He had the opportunity to trust the best and most caring barber in the world to create a better style for him and get him out that depressive state his hair loss has caused him and he was extremely stubborn and abit obnoxious tbh.. in the end he walked out with a cut any average barber could do. The day he gets a proper good cut he'll regret years of these bad cuts. LIVE AND LET BE!!

[@TheAmazingHuman]

He is only 20. His attitude is in understandable.

[@kt1pl2]

No. Our son is 20 AND he's done another 20 yr and even an 18 yr old and they both listened to his advice (as our son would because he knows this guy knows what he's talking about)@@TheAmazingHuman

[@TheAmazingHuman]

@@kt1pl2 ok... congratulations on raising an exceptional 20 year old. This young man is NOT your son and as a typical young person dealing with an unexpected traumatic event without the best guidance or support his reaction is more typical and understandable. Be well.

@@kt1pl2 yeah but is your son going through hairloss at age 20? you dont realise how traumatic that can be

[@valerieothenin-girard9226]

This hair expert is a diplomat and a good conversationalist as well as being very good at his job. I appreciate his deft handling of scissors and comb and handling of the hair. A work of art👌

[@Ciclopea2]

Hair loss can be a big issue at any age, especially when you're young and your hair is an important part of your self image. "Just shaving it off" is not that easy for everyone, but as you lose hair when it comes to haircuts the shorter the better. Theo is a handsome fella and a shorter hairstyle would suit him nicely, but at his age whatever makes him feel the most comfortable is also a good option, and Dan did a great job with that, as usual.

[@josephmarragot4756]

he should be wearing a high density hair system at his age, no questions asked. what little hair he has left isnt worth holding onto, time he replaced it with a fresh head of hair if you ask me

[@elainecoley-evans6393]

This guy was hard work. Well done to Dan for persevering. Not a style I like but well Done Dan.

[@isabellewhite3505]

I feel that a mullet hairstyle is severely unattractive. The student would look far better if the back had been shortened and the top a little shorter (as Dan had wanted). I think the student felt more confident with his longer hair at the back. He certainly looked much better after the haircut. I truly felt his anguish and I hope that his hair regrows.

[@ElleYeah]

Imagine spending the last few years of having a full head of hair with an... 80s mullet. Dan was trying so hard to get this guy to look good or at least go for a shorter, trendier mullet.

[@elainecoley-evans6393]

The guy looks furious.

[@joycemccardell5357]

Loves your videos! You are so kind to clients that come in for hair styling & help with their hair. Hair loss is traumatic for most people, everyone wants a head of hair like yours! Not a fan of mullets, but you gave the young man just what he wanted !

[@joygrove5570]

Not a hairstyle I PERSONALLY favor ... but it looks good on this guy! And once his hair grows in more fully on top - it'll look even better. I like that he knows what he wanted and that the actually small adjustments Dan made really make this look so good.

[@aleset1]

He looks 100% better!

[@sashack8820]

this barber is awesome he explains in detail first before chop off the hair. great job man

[@Monty-in-gumboots]

The world needs more people rocking mullets. Men & women. Boys and girls. Everybody grow a mullet please. I'm in my 60s and never had one and have now just started growing my hair out in order to grow a mullet. Hope we see this chap back. Would love to see how this cut grew out and the next stages of his cut.

[@mj_dolman5122]

A lot of the comments are saying the client would have looked better with a buzz cut but I don't agree. He's a twenty year old guy who wants a unique hairstyle that makes the most of his curly hair while he can. The mullet suits him, and when it's cleaned up without all those straggly bits it brings out his features so much better. Not every guy needs the same cloned hairstyle!

[@marnid2235]

You made an "awful" hairstyle look GREAT! Such a talented barber. Looking forward to this trend ending soon. Hated mullets in the 80's, still them today. .

[@joannebroughton1158]

I notice that his hair is thinning more with this style than before ,time to keep it short all over

[@Jessie-922]

Cut it short! I honestly think he would look and feel so much better with a very short hair cut. I know it’s hard to let it go but I think he shld 😊

[@coolstamper]

I think Dan did a GREAT job. Once the top grows out a little more, the curls will look much nicer. ❤️❤️❤️

[@moriganna67ify]

Ok, he looks miles better. My only critic is that I feel the mullet doesn't look right. There is too😊❤ much poof in the back. Had he had a shorter mullet to blend in more naturally. Just my opinion. Dan, you are a blessing for men with high receding hair. They always walk away happy.

[@edpone8600]

I know, but he has a serious hair loss issue. In his mind he wanted to look like Jungkook, but it is what it is )

[@tgnben]

The resurgence of the mullet is baffling to me. Never thought that one would come back in the way that it has

[@dania1059]

Come on people, this kid is rockin the mullet. What i get sick of is the people who wear the same hair style for 50 years. Shake it up. Great cut. Looks perfect on him.

[@Smart93x]

[@Messier45_Pleiades]

This young man has a lovely face. A crew cut would suit him. The mullet and combover put ten years on him. He'd look young and trendy with a crew cut.

[@simoharjane7823]

Sometimes it is not about what would look good on you or how to make you look cool and better, but about what you want, what do you believe would make you feel confident and happy !!!! good job .

[@stephen3511]

Not a fan of the haircut myself, but it definitely looks better once Dan had styled it.

[@andie9589]

Beautiful eyes! Why doesn’t Dan recommend DHT blockers??? They work wonders as well as Castor oil and Rosemary? Works great! Red light therapy helps as well as rolling it. There are a lot of other effective things to do other than taking crappy monoxidiol, which you have to continue or the new hair will fall out. Make sure your shampoo doesn’t contain ingredients that cause hair loss, many big name brands do.

[@zeethree]

I think when your hair loss is this aggressive at 20 pretty much your only chance is dutasteride, oral minoxidil, PRP and FUE.

[@andie9589]

@@zeethree I would disagree. My 19 year old son had receding hair line and turned it around using exactly what I said.

Incredible! Brought him back! I never comment on videos, but I could feel how uncomfortable the kid is. I’m sure hairloss is hard to deal with, but Dan did a superb job and he looks great. Mullet is extravagant. Well done!

[@zachmartinx]

Hey if Theo is reading this, you should definitely hop on Finasteride along with your minoxidil! They kinda work as a team, finasteride prevents you from losing hair, and minoxidil grows new hairs. They tie in together really well and I’ve seen great results in less than 6 months with my own journey. If you wanna see better results you can add in derma rolling the receding temples twice a week which sends blood flow to the rolled areas, I also use rosemary oil three times a week which is a good add on to the routine! I have something similar to a mullet but not quite, kinda a longer version of Christian bale’s hair in Batman or American Psycho. Or Tangerine from bullet train was my reference. I think something like that wouldn’t be too different to what you have now but could be a fun new look you could try when you’re hair is more a little more dense on the top! Good luck everyone :,))

[@terratec1001]

Something like Dan did with Jamie's hair, 6 videos back, would've been a better option for this chap. When hair is thinning, shorter hair is the way to go.

[@DISCODAN1]

Nice improvement! Never thought I’d see Brits rocking mullets lol! I had one back in the early 80s through early 90s, but back then we called it a bi-level haircut!

[@dphotos007]

I hope someday he gets rid of the mullet. I was never a mullet fan in the 80’s and that was one hair style I wish never to come back.

[@thehappycamper4115]

Dan, your longer hairstyle looks great! I have the same basic style, and fairly thick hair, but not the same volume and lift as you. What product(s) are you using or can you do a styling video for your hair?

[@magicarpet101]

mousse gives volume and hold, any works. Volume comes from how naturally thick it is tho, you can get products the swell the cuticle that make the hair thicker.

[@afrokido15]

You did an amazing job for what he wanted but omg that haircut 😂😂

[@HappyGoLuckyMe]

Such a handsome young man. I love the curls. ❤

[@ToniReviews]

He wanted to keep as much length on top and it’s cut short on top. The amount of length at the back makes the top look even more shorter as the back has so much volume. He doesn’t look happy.

[@jimmyk9523]

Would have looked alright with a short back and sides with same length as it is now on top? Looks like he left it too late with the treatment. Very hard to gain back that much ground when it's lost. He could easily pull off a shaved head, and more likely to get laid than with that mullet.

[@akfunc]

To complete the look, he needs a sleeveless plaid shirt, a mustache and a tan on his neck)
