"So, I come in the house. You know my son Jaden, I kiss his head and there's a little hair in my mouth, so I begin walking around the house," he explains to the camera.

"I start to notice little things," he says, filming piles of hair on the floor and couch, along with a pair of unattended scissors. He then films his wife Jada Pinkett Smith laughing while he interrogates Jaden.

"What happened last night?" Will asks, to which Jaden replies, "I don't know" and gives the camera some serious looks.

Will seems to think Jaden's "reverse fade" might catch on today, and honestly, from everything we've seen about social media challenges we wouldn't put it past people to embrace this cut.
