Now THAT'S a cool hairstyle! Man shows off his frozen fringe as he embraces gruelling winter in China

A hilarious video emerged to show the unique hairstyle of a man from north-east China.

His fringe was covered by frost at first and quickly became icicles in a 15-second clip posted by People's Daily on its Facebook page.

Thousands of online users made fun of his awkward hairstyle.

In the beginning of the video, the man with the frozen fringe was walking in the snow.

'The weather in north-east China is really cold, let me show you my hairstyle,' the man said as he moved his hands to present his hairstyle.

'Those with see-through bangs are not as trendy as me,' he said.

See-through bang is a popular hairstyle for women in Asia. It features thin, wispy bangs that expose part of the forehead.

The hilarious video was posted on several online platforms in China. It had attracted over two million views on QQ.com since December 7.

The clip has also spurred discussion on Weibo, China's microblogging platform. His hairstyle is dubbed as 'north-eastern see-through fringe' and became a trending topic.

'Or we should name it as crystal fringe,' one user suggested another way to name the hairstyle.

'Hey brother, what is the flavour of your ice pop?' one user joked.

'Looks like an octopus was put on his head,' another user didn't appreciate the man's hairstyle.

One person didn't think his new hairdo was so special: 'It's really common in north-east China. It happened to everyone who didn't blow dry his hair after shampoo.'

It's not known where exactly in north-east China the video was taken.

Several areas in the region are renowned for cold weather and winter sports.

For instance, the Heilongjiang Province is distinguished for long and tough winters as temperatures could reach as low as minus 50 degrees.
