The Golden Rule Barber Co — one of those new age snazzy gentleman’s barber shops around town — just ticked off the box for serving their most important clientele for this work year: the Argentina’s national football squad.
The thing is, the barbers weren’t even looking for a job with them — ’twas the other way round, really. It was none other than young Juventus star Paulo Dybala who came knocking on their door when he reached out on their Facebook page, asking for a haircut.
Dybala’s message went unanswered at first (we totally get it though; we ignore rando messages on Facebook too), according to one of The Golden Rule Barber Co’s staff who spoke to Channel NewsAsia. It was only when they got a call from the Argentina team themselves later on that they realized that the request was legit.
The barbers were informed that the team stumbled upon their enterprise after searching on Google — so the haircut must have been pretty urgent. The barbers later went down to Fullerton Hotel to carry out the unexpected VIP house call, where the trimmed the hairs of football stars such as Dybala, Angel Di Maria and more. The barbers could have even styled the holy hairs of Lionel Messi and Nicolas Otamendi too, but alas, they skipped the match against Singapore tonight in preparation for their own weddings.
Argentina takes on Singapore tonight at 8pm at The National Stadium. Their fresh haircuts may or may not have helped the Singapore squad turn the tides against their way more accomplished opponents.
