Luo Fuxing, a hairstylist from Guangdong, is one of the country’s pioneering influencers.

Luo, 30, with his flowing locks, styles his hair using gel after washing, showcasing unique silhouettes resembling aeroplanes, birds, and houses. He asserts that dedicating just two days a month to his hairstyling endeavours and sharing his creations online allows him to earn between 30,000 and 50,000 yuan (US$4,000 to US$6,800).

Luo draws inspiration from popular films and life experiences.
