“If She Agrees, Does That Make It Right?” —TikTok Barber Faces Criticism Over Videos With Youg girls

According to a Post by ABNMedia on Facebook Official account on Friday, October 23, 2026, a TikTok barber identified as Kobby has come under criticism on social media following the circulation of videos showing his interactions with young female customers.

The development has sparked conversations about appropriate behaviour, professional conduct and the responsibility adults have towards young people, particularly at a time when student welfare remains a major concern in Ghana.

Some social media users have questioned the barber’s actions, especially because some of the girls featured in the clips appear young. However, their actual ages have not been confirmed, and it would be premature to conclude that they are students based on their appearance alone.

In one video attracting attention, Kobby is reportedly seen directing a fan towards a female customer’s dress. The footage has prompted viewers to question whether such behaviour is appropriate, regardless of how the person involved reacts.

Although the girl appears to laugh in the clip, some viewers argue that laughter alone cannot determine whether an interaction is suitable. Others believe the complete circumstances should be considered before reaching conclusions about the incident.

The discussion has also highlighted the importance of adults maintaining clear boundaries when dealing with young people. Beyond apparent willingness, factors such as age, understanding and the surrounding circumstances are important when assessing potentially inappropriate conduct.

Nevertheless, social media allegations should not automatically be treated as established facts. The videos may not provide the full context, and the intentions of those involved should not be assumed without further information.

The situation has raised a broader question about content creators who may cross personal boundaries while seeking attention online.

If a young girl appears comfortable participating in a video but viewers consider the adult’s behaviour inappropriate, where should responsibility lie?

Should the adult be expected to maintain professional boundaries, or should both parties be considered? Share your views respectfully without bullying anyone or making unproven accusations.
