The atmosphere, the boos, and the sense of occasion only further soothed KSI’s misgivings. “As soon as I got in that ring,” he says, “I was like: ‘I’m here. I’m here, baby!” Nevertheless, we must feature this style as it marks a time in his journey! Most KSI fans will tell you this was one of the first styles he had. Maybe not KSI’s best moment and by his standards it was a disgrace as he mentioned in the video above! Though there appears to be a begrudging respect for Paul and a belief that – despite the mistakes – he means well at heart, KSI is less charitable about Paul’s younger brother, Jake, who was forced to move from his California neighbourhood after neighbours threatened a class action lawsuit against him because of his behaviour, which included setting fire to his own swimming pool. He’s most recently come under criticism for releasing a 20-minute documentary about the Parkland school shooting while previously glorifying guns in his videos, and having a tattoo of a firearm on his thigh. His opponent? Fellow YouTuber Joe Weller. The bout was the culmination of months of bad blood and trashing talking between the two, and was set to become easily the biggest live event in YouTube’s history with 1.6 million eager fans waiting to watch online.

It’s great. Obviously the view is good, but Ithink it’s mainly the location. Living in London makes life alot easier. During that time, KSI and four other gaming YouTubers formed Ultimate Sidemen, a group that would later expand to a seven-membership group.Ensure you save the images of your desired style to your loctician and explain what you’re looking for. Over the intervening months, the duo released more and more videos showing their training regime in which they took pot shots at each other, whipping their dedicated – and young – fans into a frenzy. Oh yeah, Ilove space. Ilove everything about space, Ijust think it’s so intriguing. Especially the idea of there being another life form out there. We have no idea, and they probably have no idea as well. Or maybe they do have an idea and we don’t really know. Ithink it’s cool. The more time you spend with KSI, the harder it is not to like him (a natural on the shoot, he even agreed to take off his trademark bandana for a few shots). The bolshy character who published I Am A Bellend is nowhere to be seen when the camera isn’t on, and is increasingly fading into the distance in his videos, too. Disclaimer:Whilst colour can be placed at any stage of your dreads journey, we advise you avoid placing any colour or bleach in your hair for the first few months as your hair begins to develop.

Oh yeah, yeah. Of course. And haircuts Iused to have. There’s acharacter called Uub in Dragon Ball Zthat Ihad asimilar haircut to. That was abit of amistake. Ihad amohawk. Iwent bald for asecond. I’ve been through it. If there’s one thing KSI understands, its garnering the attention of social media by creating moments to go viral, this being one of them.Look at my phone. Wake up, look at my phone, look at all the messages, try and reply to everything and then get up, shower and brush my teeth. Alot of times Igo for arun. And then, yeah, Istart the day. Whilst he went onto try other hairstyles after this he kept his sides shaved which we see today on his high top dreads. Permed Hair I’d probably look like ahuman, just so Icould blend in. Ithink that would be the smartest way to go about things. I mean, it’s all right. I’ve worked hard for it, so it’s nice to reap the rewards finally. But it’s not like Ijust sit down and do nothing any more. Istill work hard. Ionly started because Ienjoyed playing games and doing YouTube. There wasn’t any money in it at the time, and then eventually money became athing and Iwas able to make alittle career out of it. But it’s not like Isaw myself being at this point, Ididn’t have agoal in my mind like, I’m gonna have this much, blah blah blah. Ijust enjoyed doing it. Ultimately, YouTube is a business, and YouTube is always going to favour anything that’s going to create more views and more money.”

I guess it’s because people don’t really know what to expect from me,” KSI says when asked to explain his own popularity. Ordinarily, KSI – which stands for Knowledge, Strength and Integrity, a motto he got inked onto his arms and chest on a visit to a Los Angeles tattoo parlour last year, an event which (of course) was recorded and uploaded to YouTube – is loud, outgoing and brash. At the start of his journey, we can see his afro hair has been twisted in a semi freeform way and left to grow.As was often the case ever since he began filming and uploading videos at the age of 16, KSI had a cameraman pointing a lens at him.

A closer look will tell that his beard tends to grow in patches, but it still looks good, especially when combined with his signature dreads tied in a bandana.As a social media influencer, it’s only natural that among his adoring fans are a few young men who want to look like him.Hello, KSI. We’re here in your swanky flat in central London. What’s the best thing about living 30 billion feet in the sky?
