Cultural / Context information for the jury
‘90s fashion is back in style. So is one of the most iconic hairdos from that decade, the ‘curtain’. This is true especially in Sweden, where the popularity of the 'do skyrocketed last fall, probably as a result of overgrown pandemic lockdown hairdos. So, once again, people are walking around with their bangs parted in the middle, just like David Beckham, Nick Carter and Leonardo DiCaprio did thirty years ago. Today, people like Brooklyn Beckham, Timothée Chalamet, Liam Payne of One Direction and Liam Hemsworth have been sporting the ‘do. And it just so happens that the iconic hairstyle looks a lot like another icon, one of the world’s most known logos – the McDonald’s Golden Arches.
Write a short summary of the ambient work.
The 90s are finally back in style, including the iconic ‘curtains’ hairdo. It just so happens that the hairstyle looks exactly like another icon, or one of the world’s most recognized logos: The McDonald’s Golden Arches.
To celebrate the comeback of the ‘do, McDonald’s decided to hijack it by paying a tribute to all their subliminal ambassadors. That's why they launched their very own McDonald’s certified barber shop, with only one style on the menu.
McDonald’s also built an app, The Golden M Detector, that used AI and machine learning to detect Golden M:s. People with the ‘do could use it to get a free Big Mac by posting their photo on Instagram and tagging it with #mcdonalds. If the AI didn’t find a Golden M, people were advised to book an appointment at the salon or watch the official YouTube tutorial on how to get the ‘do.
