Barbers across Iraqi have revealed they are preparing themselves for a surge in requests for the ‘John Bolton’ moustache following the famed diplomat’s appointment as Donald Trump’s National Security Advisor.
“[Bolton] is a rock star figure here,” explained Ibrahim Husseini, owner of the Messy Cuts hairdresser in Baghdad. “I remember in 2003 you couldn’t move for men sporting his bristle-brush, 70s porn star upper lip. It’s great to have him back on the scene and inspiring a whole new generation of Iraqis.”
