In a post on X, The Sottie showed his face with his bushy hair which was well-combed. The hair had grown to cover parts of his forehead.
He added a caption on his video, hoping the barber would not give him a horrible haircut. In the video, he said he should have checked the barber out before sitting but he failed to do that.
“The first thing I should have done was to check the barber’s face. I did not check until I sat down and then I realised it was too late. Immediately I saw his face and I started praying. I said God don’t let him spoil my hair.”
The man was wearing a red and black jacket and his hairline was far behind. He looked like someone suffering from baldness.
The Sottie later showed the work the barber did on his head and said he would not appear in any video again until his hair grew.
“I’m sorry but until the hair grows this is my last video. Give me about four months.”
