Realising they were being caught red handed, the students quickly ran back to their desks.

While we’re not sure whether they were preparing to study or completely fleeing from the room, we admired that they didn’t forget to unplug the flat iron and left it on the table.


Netizens laugh at the clip


After the clip went viral on TikTok – accumulating over 181K likes – many netizens shared their comments laughing at those students.

Translation: I find myself in the clip LOL.

One TikToker suggested that she used to do the same when she was young.


New generation of talented hairdressers found


Looking at the hairdo of the student who smiled to the camera, we’re pretty certain that a new generation of talented hairdressers have been discovered.

Once they master their hair straightening skills, we believe that they would be professional hairstylists in the future for sure if they broaden their repertoires even further.
