Have you ever heard of the 'Geometric Barber'?

Advances in hairstyling have grown leaps and bounds over the years. 

From extensions to crocheting hairstyles and fancy weaves to beard extensions, many things have been on display on people's heads. 

Over the recent years, the Geometric Barber Zachariah Mwaura has gained traction online with his innovative geometric haircuts. He has used simple geometric tools such as a compass and protractor, and his understanding of mathematics has allowed him to create haircuts that allow his clients to feel confident. 

Watch as he transforms this man's hairstyle and adds a natural-looking beard.

Zachariah Mwaura, from Nairobi, Kenya, uses geometry and his love for hair to help bald men regain their confidence. 

Using a compass and pencil, he can cut and apply extensions precisely. Snoop Dogg reposted the above haircut, which is a testament to his talent. 

Who said the world of hair extensions was only for women? Not the Geometric Barber...
