If you're ever in the mood for a really wacky haircut, then Rob the Original Barbershop salon in San Antonio, US, might just be the right place to head over to.

Rob Ferrel, the man who runs this salon, is nothing short of an artist and can do some pretty amazing things with people's hair. In a nutshell, he is able to create haircut portraits.

What's more, as noticeable in the image above, he is surprisingly gifted at it. In fact, Rob Ferrel claims that he is so good at what he does that he can replicate whatever image his clients bring him in their hair.

What's even weirder is that Rob Ferrel only discovered this talent at his about 8 years ago, when a kid walked into his salon and said that he wanted a little swirl.

By the looks of it, the hair artist took such pleasure in making this one little swirl that he soon switched to creating logos, designs, patterns and ever celebrity faces by cutting hair.

“From there I started doing stars and more complex designs, team logos. And then I wanted to do something different and stand out, so I did portraits. Now if they bring me any image, I can replicate it in their hair,” Rob says.

According to Oddity Central, Rob Ferrel only needs about 30-45 minutes to complete a haircut. Needless to say, not having any clients is never an issue.
