A good haircut can enhance anyone's facial features. Hairstyling is an art, and it takes a lot of patience to come up with a nice hairstyle. But quite the opposite of this belief, a Greek hairdresser who cuts his clients' hair in under a minute has become a social media sensation.
Konstantinos Koutoupis, a hairdresser from Athens, Greece, set a Guinness World Records for the fastest haircut in 47 seconds.Mr Koutoupis currently holds the record for giving the fastest haircut with a trimmer.
In a video that has now gone viral on social media, he displayed his talent. The first 30 seconds of the three-minute clip feature Mr Koutoupis engaging in combat right away. He doesn't quit until the client's hair is perfectly styled. The barber paused and raised his hand at 47.17 seconds.
His name was then entered into the Guinness World Records after the judges measured the length of the hair to ensure that the work was completed properly.
The record keeper tweeted the video with the message, "Need a quick trim? How about a 45-second trim?". It was posted as a compilation video with a haircut theme.
