On July 2, Song Ji Hyo uploaded a new video to her YouTube channel titled “The Short Hair Incident: Now We Can Finally Talk About It – My Hair, Makeup, and Styling Team Expose Me.”
In the video, Song Ji Hyo invited her hairstylist, makeup artist, and stylist to share a meal while reminiscing about memorable moments they had experienced together.
During the conversation, Song Ji Hyo turned to her hairstylist and admitted, “I owe you an apology. I should apologize for cutting my own hair,” referring to the haircut that sparked widespread discussion several years ago.
Recalling the incident, her hairstylist said, “I received a text message in the middle of the night saying she had cut her hair. I honestly thought she was joking. But when she came to my house the next day, her hair was already beyond saving. There was no way to fix it properly. I ended up trimming it further in my bathroom. I was so shocked that I even smacked her on the back.”

Song Ji Hyo then revealed what happened after she posted photos of the haircut online. “After I uploaded the pictures, I was flooded with criticism. People even called the salon asking, ‘Why did you cut her hair like that?'”
Her hairstylist admitted the backlash was overwhelming. “If someone had been emotionally fragile, they might not have been able to handle it. It was that intense. Some people even told me I should return my salary. Looking back, it eventually became just another funny story, but at the time it was really difficult.”
Song Ji Hyo first unveiled her dramatic pixie cut in 2021, attracting significant attention. However, the hairstyle quickly became the subject of heated debate, with some online users criticizing it as messy and unflattering.
The actress had previously addressed the issue during another YouTube appearance, confessing that she impulsively cut her own hair after drinking. “I suddenly got emotional after having alcohol,” she said. “I just grabbed a pair of scissors that I normally use to cut toothpaste tubes and cosmetic packaging, and I cut my hair myself.”
