Haircuts can be a game-changer, it's true.

A new hairstyle has the power to completely transform someone's appearance – and it was the case recently for one man who left the barbers looking "10 years younger".

This change followed after he visited the TikTok famous Richmond Barber, who boasts 1.3million followers and shared the amazing before and after shots online.

Now, in another viral sensation from the same hair stylist, a bloke desperately hoping to refresh his style for an upcoming wedding got the attention he needed.

Opening up in a social media video, he confessed to the barber: "I'm pretty sure this has been thinning since I was in college. I'm about to have a big alien on my forehead and I know it."

At 39, the guy revealed a lifetime of haircut disappointments, driving him to find the barber online and decisively call up to book. Wearing hats had become a habit for this man, using them as a protective shield at all times – even at formal meals.

Recounting a recent family event he said: "We were in Boston, US, last weekend for my parents' 70th birthday. My mum was like to me, 'you wearing a hat to dinner?'" But now he is ready to step out confidently, hat-free and perhaps capture the interest of potential partners.

Thanks to the skilled hands of the hairdresser who listened to his story, the transformation is remarkable, and the clip documenting his new look captivated viewers by the second.

He's flaunting a new hairstyle with curls on top and even tidied up his beard. Sharing his thoughts on the fresh cut, he exclaimed: "It's better than good, it's a dream. Like I couldn't be happier."

The video has since amassed over 160,600 likes and hundreds of comments. One user commented: "Saves lives like usual," while another TikTok fan said: "He looks so much younger."

A third admirer enthused: "Bro is out here resurrecting people." And yet another added their voice, saying: "Bro that's crazy."
