Grimes and Elon Musk are anything but your traditional parents.

Straddling the personas of public figures and enigmas, Grimes and Elon Musk like to sporadically grace us with insight into their wonderful world of parenting and their antics with Little X.

So that’s why your window to check out Little X’s new haircut, by Grimes herself was a pretty short one.

As per the nature of Instagram stories, they are only valid for the time period of 24-hours.

That is unless you have screenshots, which have surfaced via Buzzfeed.

Via her stories, Grimes shared photos of Little X having a bath and a DIY haircut, courtesy of Grimes herself. She captioned the image, “Not sure this haircut went well, but he’s Viking now.”

With the following photo captioned, “Haircut inspired by The Last Kingdom on Netflix, which is a masterpiece.”

Who knows if this will somehow spawn into the next viral meme.

But if one thing is for sure though, we will never forget that time when Grimes and Musk announced the name of their child, sending the meme makers of the internet into absolute heaven.

In case you missed it, Grimes eventually decided to roll with Little X (which she recently revealed), as her first name choice for the child was reportedly not viable.

As for Elon, we last reported on him back in 2020, around the time that he revealed to The New York Times that he encouraged Kanye West to hold off until 2024 to run for president.

The reason being that he was hesitant that West would be accused of splitting the vote for presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden.

Aside from that, right now we can only wonder if a) Elon approves of the haircut? And b) if Elon is next in line for a viking haircut himself.
