Some would say that the lion’s hair is totally out of style. Well, but the zoo groomer didn’t work on it. In the picture you can see that the hair of the lion was perfectly “arranged”, and the straightness of it would be the envy of the owners of curly hair, constantly straightening their hair.

Visitors to a Chinese zoo in Guangzhou photographed a local lion. His photo spread all over the Web, making the animal popular. People began to wonder how the lion got that haircut from the ’80s. The staff assumed it was because of the humidity. The heat caused the wool to straighten. Another suggestion from zoo staff is that the lion licked his paws and rubbed himself on the head.

Commentators compared the lion to British fighter Paddy Pimblett, who wears a “potty” haircut. But the lion Hang Hang seems most like American singer Miley Cyrus, who had a “Mallet” haircut in 2020. Actress Scarlett Johansson could also compete with the lion with her “Mallet.” According to zoo staff in Guangzhou, Hang Hang Hang is now a local star.
