A hair salon is offering customers free haircuts to match the famous hair styles of President Kim Jong Un and President Donald Trump.

A barber in Hanoi Vietnam is offering customers free haircuts in two of the world’s most distinctive styles.  The famous orange looking hair of President Donald Trump and the famous high-cut of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. 

The two leaders are scheduled to meet in the Vietnamese capital next week for their second summit. 

“I feel happy with this haircut because people will think I look like the leader of North Korea,” 9-year-old To Gia Huy said. He chose the Kim style at the Tuan Duong Beauty Academy. 

Photographers in Hanoi took photos of the stunning transformation from two customers who were happy to have their photos taken.

“I like Donald Trump’s haircut. It looks great and it fits my age, said ” 66-year-old Le Phuc Hai. 

However, he also seemed relieved by one part of the offer. 

“I’m not afraid of this bright orange hair color because after this promotional campaign, the hair salon owner said he would return my hair to normal.

The promotion ends next week, at the end of the summit. Before it ends the salon might want to make sure they match the right hair cuts to the right customers. Two years ago, someone used photo-editing software to give Kim’s hair to Trump and Trump’s to Kim. And the results were unnerving.
