Celebrity barber Topzycut sparks controversy with his ₦500k barbering masterclass, drawing reactions from Nigerians online. Despite criticism over the steep fee, Topzycut defends the value of the immersive learning experience, offering fundamental techniques, skill enhancement, and personalized mentorship.

Celebrity barber Adeyinka Taofeek Temitope, popularly known as Topzycut, has launched a highly anticipated barbering masterclass, aiming to elevate the skills of aspiring stylists and seasoned barbers alike. The announcement, made via Instagram, has stirred a flurry of reactions among Nigerians, with many expressing shock and disbelief at the staggering ₦500,000 price tag for a two-day event.

Topzycut, whose reputation soared after styling Nigerian Afrobeats sensation Asake and other high-profile celebrities, described the masterclass as a unique opportunity to enhance one's craft.

While acknowledging the hefty price, Topzycut emphasized the value proposition of the masterclass, promising participants a comprehensive learning experience encompassing fundamental techniques, skill enhancement, and brand development. Additionally, each participant will receive a certificate of participation, a barber's kit set, and 60 days of personalized mentorship.
