I’ve always been the kind of person who takes my significant other to their appointments simply because I want to. There’s no hidden motive— I just want to make sure they arrive safely. Unfortunately, some people seem to find it unbearably difficult to wait and care for their own children while their wife is at a hair appointment. For example, this Kentucky man is facing criticism after allegedly interrupting his wife’s salon visit because he felt she was taking too long and the kids were thirsty. Keep in mind, he reportedly had the car and could have easily taken the children somewhere nearby to get a drink.
The video above was posted to the official TikTok page of Planet Salon and Spa in Lexington, Kentucky. Filmed from the perspective of an indoor security camera, the footage shows the spa’s front door and main reception area. Shortly after the video begins, a man opens the door, sticks his head inside, and calls out, “Honey, are you about done with you? The kids are thirsty out here.”
According to the video’s caption, the man’s wife was in the middle of a three-hour hair appointment, which is not unusual for certain salon services. However, rather than finding something else to do while she was at her appointment, her husband apparently chose to remain in the car with their children.
The spa worker appeared frustrated by the situation in the comments section, adding, “There is a public park down the street from our business 🥰.” As if the situation weren’t embarrassing enough, this man is going from bad to worse—he can’t even bring himself to give his children a glass of water.
The Internet Doesn’t Tolerate Manchild Like This “Father”
Just like the spa employees, many of the internet users thought the man’s behavior was really silly, so they were quite harsh in their criticism of him in their comments.
“Imagine a man has to babysit, I mean, care for his own children…”
“How embarrassing omg!! I would be absolutely MORTIFIED.”
“Hey, the kids are thirsty, so we’re gonna run to the gas station. Do you want anything?” Was the correct answer sir.”
Hopefully, the video makes its way back to the man involved so he can see how his behavior was received online. Perhaps next time, he will think twice before embarrassing someone in public.
