McGann’s exploits were subsequently picked up a number of popular social media accounts and they have since attracted millions of views.
Here’s how he explained the method to Insider:
Some of customers are sheep farmers and they’re messing one day and they said, “I bet you can’t cut hair with shears.” So I got the shears, I adjusted it myself to cut hair and I’ve been using it since.
While he mostly uses the shears for fun, he says it does have one benefit.
Whatever way it cuts the hair, it does put a little bit of a nicer finish on it sometimes.
