From photography to racing, drones are becoming increasingly useful as people explore the evolving technology.

On Tuesday, Simone Giertz, a YouTube blogger known for making humorously dodgy robots, tried to take drones to their next logical frontier of glory: haircuts.

She paired up with computer hacker Samy Kamkar to make the above video, which sees the duo attempt to give a mannequin a stylish new 'do.

As you'll see, this isn't something you'd want to try at home.
