How to create wild hairstyles for Chile's footballers

Outlook

Available for over a year

The hairstyles of Chilean footballers can be quite spectacular. Arturo Vidal, who plays for the Spanish club Barcelona, has a spiky mohawk with patterns shaved into the remaining hair. Many other players from the country have followed suit. The person who creates these looks is a man they call Jota Master Barber. He's the official barber for the Chilean team and travels around the world to make sure his clients look suitably slick. Outlook's Jane Chambers went to meet him at his salon in the coastal town of Talagante. (Image: The back of Chile's midfielder Arturo Vidal's head. Photo credit: Franck Fife/AFP/Getty Images.)
