Paris (France) - This TikTok video is currently going viral. But there's not much to see in the clip. Just Californian Lauren Renae (22) having her hair done by a stranger on the street in Paris. Users are still on fire - but they still have a question.

In the curious video, the student, who is on a semester abroad, stands smiling in the street while the man twirls his scissors around her head. Is he actually cutting anything off? A lot remains pretty open.

But the subtitles clear things up: The stranger had told her that her hair looked dry - and that he could loosen it. According to the US-American woman , he succeeded in doing so.

However, you can't really see much of this change in the video, which has been clicked on millions of times. That's why there are calls in the comments section for a corresponding update clip to be provided.

Just one day later, the young lady complies with this request.

The 22-year-old proudly presents herself with her - in her opinion - far less dry hair.

Newsweek asked Renae about this somewhat bizarre story.

She told the US magazine that she initially just laughed after the man asked her about her hair. She then moved on for the time being.

"But I had just been thinking about how dry my hair was that morning. It always happens to me when I come to Europe and it really bothers me," the student explained.

"When I went out, he was at the door, so I asked him how he takes care of dry hair. Was it a product he wanted to sell me? Without hesitation, he said, 'Oh no, I condition it with scissors. Come here!"

According to Renae, the man could sense her nervousness. He then told her to relax because he was known for this work. "He made me google him as 'hair cowboy'."

In fact, under that name you can find a man called Kanu Muringi, who has been a hair artist in Paris for years.

"It was a fever dream and a hilarious story. It may sound frivolous. But I felt safe and I think I was lucky," added Renae, who is very happy with the result.
