About two weeks ago, KTLA 5 Weekend Morning anchors Megan Telles, Lauren Lyster and Kacey Montoya stepped in to help entertainment anchor Doug Kolk after their makeup artist called in sick right before the newscast.
This past Saturday, our Doug had another issue: his new haircut. He apparently got clipped a bit too much.
“Get it out, go ahead,” he told Megan, Lauren and Kacey during the newscast on Saturday as the women were giggling at his new hairdo.
“You got a haircut,” Lauren said as Megan giggled.
“Doug, that’s more than a haircut,” Kacey quipped. “That’s like a buzzcut.”
“No knock to the guy that did it, it’s just not me,” he explained. “It was not what I was expecting when I sat in the chair. He put up the mirror and was like ‘What do you think?’ And, I was like ‘Whoah! Really?’”
The issue was that the barber took too much from the sides and didn’t cut much from the top, which Doug wanted.
Thankfully, Doug’s hair does grow back pretty fast, but it didn’t stop him from getting roasted by his colleagues.
Lauren joked that his five-year-old daughter could’ve done a better job.
“The fade is not fading,” giggled Megan, who could barely speak from all the laughing.
“It looks like a mushroom!” Doug said. “I walked into my house and my wife asked, ‘Where’s the divorce papers?’”
Jokes aside, Kacey offered her services because she felt she could remedy the issue. She even took it to social media. The show’s official X account posted a poll, asking viewers to weigh in. A resounding 64 percent voted yes to “fix that thing!”
“We’re crowdsourcing our haircuts,” Lauren exclaimed.
On Sunday morning, Kacey brought out the scissors and got to work. She began taking from the sides to even out the cut.
Keep in mind, Kacey doesn’t know how to cut hair, but she did practice on her boyfriend the day before.
Doug seemed to be happy with the cut, considering his options were limited. Regardless, he was a very good sport. Also, he has two weeks to get his hair in order before KTLA 5’s Emmys red carpet show.
