If there's a singular force to be reckoned with in today's world, it's Jon Snow fans. 

With Game of Thrones season 6 now in full swing, all talk is about Kit Harington reprising his role - even if it wasn't for the most conventional or expected character return.

And as if that wasn't enough, the actor now has his fans talking about his hair. Again. Seriously. 

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Harington confessed that he had his hair cut after essentially faking his exit from the show last year, so that fans would genuinely think he wasn't returning.

After getting his trademark Jon Snow locks cut (well, trimmed) more than once, the actor needed extensions to film his resurrection scenes for season six. 

Just last year, pictures leaked of Harrington with those extensions tied up in a bun - which is when the great 'Is he actually dead?' Jon Snow debate of 2015-16 began.

That aside, we'd quite like to see more of Jon with a man bun, like Kit's character in tennis mockumentary 7 Days of Hell. Just to give the Thrones icon a bit of a hipster vibe, you know?

Meanwhile, the actor has also confessed to lying to his cast mates to keep his return to the show under super secretive wraps.

Game of Thrones returns on HBO on Sunday, May 8, and airs on Sky Atlantic in the UK on Monday, May 9.
