FOOTBALL – In a barbershop in Resende, in Brazil’s Rio de Janeiro state, World Cup fever is going to people’s heads, quite literally.
Barber Washington Santos, 27, has created a haircut featuring the Brazilian flag to celebrate the country’s bid for a sixth World Cup title, or “hexa” in Portuguese.
The “Hexa Cut” has become a hit among local fans eager to show their confidence in the national team’s campaign.
Santos first introduced the style during the 2022 World Cup, when videos of his work began circulating online.
He revived it for this year’s tournament and has already painted the green, yellow, blue and white flag into the hair of about 30 customers, most of them children and teenagers.
“I wanted to create something different,” he said.
