Carlos Alcaraz’s barber, Victor Martinez, expressed a wish to style Jannik Sinner’s hair, which has made Italian fans panic. Along with Sinner, Martinez also wanted to cut Novak Djokovic’s hair.
As soon as Alcaraz shows up with a new haircut on the tour, his barber becomes a huge talking point. Most of the time, if not all, the barber is criticized for his work. Tennis insider Ben Rothenberg gave the Spanish barber a voice after Alcaraz’s surprising new look amid the French Open.
Martinez explained that he did not pay much heed to the criticism he had received from tennis fans. Moreover, he was asked if he wanted to cut anyone else’s hair on the ATP Tour.
“Oooh, Sinner,” he replied excitedly. “Sinner and Djokovic. Sinner, his hair is a bit longer [than Alcaraz’s], but Djokovic’s is more similar,” he said.
Martinez’s comments were shared on X, and fans amusingly went into panic.
“He’s going to destroy his hairline. This is a threat 😔 one fan wrote.
“Noooooo! Don’t let him get close to Jannik,” another fan wrote.
“Jannik wouldn’t take this nonsense,” a third fan wrote.
Here are a few more fan reactions to Martinez’s comments.
“If he touches even one curl, I’ll hunt him down,” one fan wrote.
“We must protect jannik’s beautiful hair,” another fan wrote.
“I’m gonna get a court order I swear to god,” yet another fan added.
