Will’s videos have quickly gained traction, with the self-taught hairdresser amassing 93,000 followers.
His most popular video, which has generated over eight million views, is a haircut he performed on his dad with the caption: “Giving my dad his rizz back”.
The teen’s business venture started from humble beginnings, doing his mates’ hair and charging just $10.
“My friend Dustin, I cut his hair one time and it was actually pretty good so I decided to cut my other mates hair,” Will told 7NEWS.com.au.
He now charges $30 for a cut and is booking up to 25 a week.
Will said one day he hopes to become the most famous barber in Australia.
“He always says ‘I’ll pay your bills when I get famous mum’,” Will’s mother Lisa Green said.
“He’s a hard worker, we have to sometimes stop his really, really late night cuts because he doesn’t do much school work.”
While the money is a bonus, Will said his favourite thing about cutting hair is getting a positive reaction from his clients.
“I love that I’m able to see people happy when they walk out of the chair and see the smile on their faces from the services I provide,” he said.
