This wizard barber in Pakistan flaunts 15 pairs of scissors simultaneously while giving a haircut to his clients.
Sadiq Ali, 33, takes not more than 20 minutes for each haircut and charges just $2 (Dh8 approx) for 'the spicy haircut', a name he has given for the cut.
Ali runs a salon in Punjab, Pakistan, and is elite clientele list includes cricketers Umar Akmal, Sohail Tanvir, coach Mickey Arthur and Inzamam-ul-Haq, according to Pakistan Daily.
"It took me at least five years to hone my skills. [The scissors] were heavy and it was difficult to make them work all at one time," Ali was quoted saying by Daily Mail. "Slowly, however, I got used to holding them and using them successfully for haircuts."
Ali has been into the profession for 15 years and was inspired by Chinese hairdresser Zedong Wang who set a Guinness world record in 2007 for using ten scissors together while giving a haircut.
"I saw his act on internet was spellbound by his talent. He was unbelievable. I was (so) inspired by him that I decided to outdo him. Slowly, however, I got used to holding them and using them successfully for haircuts," he adds.
