Haircut, Camouflage, Tattoo: What Did David Beckham Do With His Hair?

For a while, everyone believed that the 43-year-old football legend suffers from banal baldness, like about half of the men of his age, they delicately sympathized and remained silent. Beckham's speech at a conference in Hong Kong (he, by the way, is now the ambassador of the largest Hong Kong insurance company AIGroup) removed the taboo: “I dyed myself to hide my bald head ?!”.

Any male celebrity whose hair "today" is markedly different from "yesterday" is attacked with questions. This, for example, will be confirmed by Beckham's former colleague on the England national team Wayne Rooney, who did not leave the tabloid pages in 2011 after a successful hair transplant (according to rumors, it cost the footballer 30 thousand pounds).

But Beckham always played by his own rules: at the peak of his career - when he played for Manchester United - his hair attracted no less attention than his football skills. Remember this path from highlights in the 90s to a mohawk in the 2000s! What is happening now?

Strictly speaking, lately the world has been more interested in the appearance of Beckham's wife than in his own. But the Hong Kong press conference put everything in its place: the focus of attention is again David, or rather, his hair. American and British trichology experts put forward three versions of what happened (further information will be useful to those for whom the word "thinning hair" is not an empty phrase).

Hair coloring and thickening

Beckham practices professional hair care aimed at thickening the hair shaft (eg hair lamination, hair botox, etc.). It is also quite possible that he simply dyed his hair, including his eyebrows and beard - a fresh, even shade visually makes the hair more well-groomed and dense.

In conjecture, experts go further and suggest that David could even use "camouflage" for balding areas. These are keratin nanofibers that are applied to the balding area and are attached to their own hair using a fixing aerosol. Nanofibers visually thicken the shafts of their own hair and can literally mask the bald spot. The procedure for their application is simple, and you can easily do it yourself. I am especially glad that this is an option for ordinary people: a bottle of "camouflage" from the pioneer in this area of the Nanogen brand costs about 2,000 rubles.

Haircut and tattoo

It is possible that David simply cut his hair "complimentary" to the current state of his hair. His hairdresser could have used a layering technique to make the shaft tighter. At the same time, the changed color makes one think that it was not without toning. Experts do not exclude that this may be a new Advanced Tricho Pigmentation technique.

In fact, this is a permanent makeup for hair, that is, an imitation of hair shafts on a bald area. ATP appeared several years ago, but is now experiencing a real peak in popularity. This service is very much in demand on the set, which is understandable - the head looks as if the hair is really growing. The effect is instantaneous: there is no need to wait, as after transplantation, for the hair follicles to wake up and start working (you need to wait 6-12 months for visible results of transplantation).

So, if an actor (yes, the same David Beckham) is filming a commercial tomorrow, then he can do ATP today and go to the shooting. Compared to hair transplant, this is also a relatively affordable way to maintain a decent look of hair - an ATP course costs from 2 to 5 thousand pounds.

Special care

This is a shampoo that strengthens and thickens the hair, which ideally works well with hair camouflage. In the composition of such funds, you must first of all look for keratin that thickens the hair structure.

However, experts do not exclude that all Beckham's preventive measures are ineffective, and he will soon have to cut his hair off or still turn to transplantation.
