Elon Musk brings back his viral 'Hitler haircut' in new photo; internet reacts with hilarious memes

It looks like Elon Musk is taking inspiration from his own viral haircut and bringing it back, this time on 'popular demand'.
Earlier this month, old photos of the Tesla and SpaceX chief from 2021 resurfaced, showing him with a distinctive haircut. The look quickly went viral, with comparisons to Adolf Hitler and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un sparking a frenzy online. While opinions were divided, the haircut certainly grabbed attention.

Unfazed by the buzz surrounding his distinctive haircut, the newly appointed DOGE chief has brought back his viral look, once again sending the internet into a frenzy. In the latest photo, Musk poses with his 4-year-old X A-Xii. "Going back to this haircut," he wrote. While Musk didn't mention which haircut he's referring to, his new hairdo resembles his 2021 style, which many netizens compared to the 1930s German military-inspired look.
X was recently spotted with US President Donald Trump at the White House Lawns. The li'l one looked quite upbeat and comfortable in Trump's company with internet describing the pics as 'pure joy'. Many took a potshot at Trump for being Musk's 'glorified babysitter'. Trump could be seen helping his little buddy climb the stairs leading to the aircraft.

The new pic shows sides shaved, while the top of hair remains longer and wavy. "Did you know hitIer also got haircuts," a user mentions playfully. "What's the hair cut name," another wondered.
The Internet seems to be divided over whether they like the new haircut or not. 'Hate it', one wrote. 'Looks good', said another.

Some decided to take the diplomatic route by suggesting alternate hairstyles for Musk. "So cool, but I love more your and Lil X messy hair!" a user wrote.

Many chose not to comment and focused on how adorable Li'l X looked posing with daddy Musk. 'This little guy, is the future King of Mars,' wrote a user. 'Little X is so adorable God bless you, the best Daddy. Best regards from Albania," a comment read.

While Musk has 14 children in total with 4 partners, Li'l X remains his constant companion in work meetings and White House visits. X's mother Grimes has expressed her discomfort over her son being in the public eye, arguing he "should not be in public like this." Many see this as Musk's image-building exercise, while others feel he genuinely seeks his 4-year-old's emotional support and try to maximise his time with him.
While his frequent appearances alongside Musk have sparked debates about parenting in the public eye. Despite the mixed reactions, Musk shows no signs of changing this approach.
