Wayne Rooney Hair transplant

[chrisdav]

The work isn't shocking, just the contrast in how his hair was in the early months with concealer in to the later months without.

I don't think its shocking at all really his hairline is pretty good another surgery to fill in behind the hairline in the summer and he will be fine. He will never have a full head of hair imo . I just wonder did he take the wrong approach should he have stripped out as many graphs as possible and then topped up with fue .

[chrisdav]

That is shocking.

As I've said before, he's been caked in concealer all season. In fairness though, if you go back and look at the post op pics he only really got the hairline done. He could do with some more grafts for sure.

He should probably go strip for 4000 because he won't have enough by FUE alone in the long run. 4000 and it would be happy days for a long time. To go strip though he'd have to have a complete summer off, so not this year then.

If and when he has strip, that will be pretty huge. Its such an extreme thing to have done and I think it will shock the public.

He should buzz it for now, whilst its thinning.

That wasn't my intention. Just an observation. I don't even remember how many grafts he had. Come to think of it, I don't remember what he looked like pre-op.

His fringe/hairline does not look too bad, So I guess the transplanted area is ok :s although I am not sure how much of the front was transplanted.

He's definitely thinning behind his transplanted area anyway so maybe another operation this summer?

Oh Mat you are such a hater!

Looks like he got caught in the rain without concealers.

This does not look good...Latest photo of Rooney from today:

I agree. To come out and say I want a hair transplant becasue he wants to feel better is great.

I can only assume there are plenty in hollywood and all over the world that get it done but only the brave come out and admit it because they know it will help others

Click on the Rooney interview on the right.

Here's a good chance to see Rooney's hair up close and personal. I bit wispy but still looks good, you can see how much better and younger he looks. Its funny seeing the older footage of Rooney with his receded hair and then him sitting their being interview it's like we have gone back in time.

Also those dots along the hairline may be pen markings from the surgeon. Wasn't that photo taken just a couple of days after the op?

I suspect what Dave52 said was correct and those 'points' are to create a more natural hairline. Although I do not know what is natural about equally spaced points in the hairline.

One of those photos is of him in Barbados so I doubt there would still be pen marks on his head as thats at least a few weeks after surgery and surely he would have washed any pen marks off at most a few days after the transplant.

This photo I have come across concerns me as his hair looks pretty thin. These were taken a month post surgery.

I am confused as to why he is hair looks so thin here....



But here, not long after the above photo was taken his hair looks thick....



This was taken this month, here it looks insanely thick:



Oh its too confusing, is dermatch conning me?

In this photo his hair does look a bit odd, powdery like:

Sausage, I would expect Wayne to have if anything even less hair than before at 1 month so if that photo is at one month then he was doing very well. He won't have his full result until June. I can tell you that he is most likely wearing concealer in the international game and definitely wearing dermatch in the game against Sunderland given the lack of a sheen to his hair and the chalky appearance. I know this from having used the stuff a couple of times myself. As for the one this month at the balon d'or I'm not sure. Perhaps nothing or maybe a small touch of toppik or nanogen. For sure his hair is still improving.

Dermatch is a better option for the games without question. Good for Wayne. He's helping remove the stigma for us all.
