Greek hairstylist sets world record for fastest haircut in 47 seconds

Anyone's facial features can be improved by a good haircut. It takes a lot of care to create a great hairdo because hairstyling is an art. Contrary to popular perception, a Greek hairstylist who can cut his customers' hair in under a minute has become an internet celebrity.

Greek hairstylist Konstantinos Koutoupis set a Guinness World Record for the quickest haircut in 47 seconds.

Using a trimmer, Mr Koutoupis presently holds the record for offering the fastest haircut.

He showcased his talent in a video that has now gone viral on social media. The three-minute video begins with Mr Koutoupis combating right away for the first 30 seconds. He continues styling the client's hair until it is flawless.

The record keeper tweeted the video with the message, "Need a quick trim? How about a 45-second trim?". A compilation video with a haircut theme was shared online, NDTV reported.

He runs his fingers over the client's hair as if it were planned, as is evident in the video. The precision with which he chopped the customer's hair shocked several online users.

A social media user commented, "Great job," praising Mr Koutoupis' haircutting skills.

The way the Guinness experts were measuring the hair astonished another user. He commented that "It's official they measured with a ruler :) Guinness is awesome"."

One person claimed that the haircut didn't look decent and questioned the hasty trimming and said, "I'm sorry I thought your head of hair was supposed to look good at the end? Not even the guy who got his haircut looks happy with it".
