Fans Revive Hairpiece Rumors After Seeing David's Wet Hair Vacation Photos
The English icon is another one of those male celebrities who has spent a lot of his life in the public eye, making major headlines with his soccer career in the 1990s, therefore, having been in the spotlight for around 30 years.
This means that the public has expected to see him age, and for the most part, many have seemed fairly impressed by his aging process, with many writing about how he's 'still got it' and looks great. However, his hair has been a slightly more debated topic, as this is not the first time he's had hairpiece rumors circulating about him.
For years, fans have debated whether the former professional soccer player underwent a hair transplant after appearing to reverse what many believed was a receding hairline. Others have claimed he relies on cosmetic hair fibers to create the appearance of fuller hair at public events, though he's never spoken about using either.
The latest vacation photos quickly reignited those rumors across social media, with commenters arguing that his wet hair looked a whole lot different than it does on red carpets or in promotional appearances.
"He has to use some kind of volumizing hair product to make it look normal when it’s not wet," suggested an Instagram user.
"Just shave it, David," added another.
"He lost his hair," observed a user, as another joked about getting a transplant, noting, "He can always go to Turkey."
"Hair transplant doesn’t save non-transplanted hair from falling out, which is what’s happening to him now," suggested a user. "You continue to [go] bald."
"Rare photos of Beckham without his wig," speculated another.
