This is incredible. Unless you're a North Korean man. With a weird shaped head.

As of two weeks ago, men in North Korea are required to get the "Dear Leader Kim Jong Un" haircut.

North Korea has had state-sanctioned haircuts for some time. There used to be 18 styles women were allowed to choose from and 10 for men.

Curiously, Kim Jong Un's 'do was not among the choices.

Well now choice is no longer among the haircuts. Mwahahahah.

The new state-sanctioned guidelines — which some reports say are limited to students — took first root in the capital Pyongyang two weeks ago, according to the Korea Times, and are now rolling out across the country.

Which is not to everyone's liking, mind you. One source told Radio Free Asia that the look just doesn't work for everyone.

"Our leader's haircut is very particular, if you will," the source said. "It doesn't always go with everyone since everyone has different face and head shapes."

Others say the haircut has unfortunate associations.

"Until the mid-2000s, we called it the 'Chinese smuggler haircut'," a North Korean defector now living in China told the Korea Times.

None of the reported objections, curiously, pertain to the fact that Kim Jong Un is psycho enough to try and make everyone look like him.
