Wayne Rooney today showed off the early results of his hair
transplant by posting a picture on his Twitter feed.
The 25-year-old had treatment on his prematurely balding head last
week at a Harley Street clinic - at an estimated cost of £12,000.
He commented: "Hi all there's my head. It will take a few months to
grow. Still a bit bloody too. But that's all normal."
The England striker had taken stick off Manchester United team mate
Michael Owen over his Twitter profile pic, and Cristiano Ronaldo
nicknamed him Bobby Charlton.
And Red Devils colleague Rio Ferdinand, who tweets as RioFerdy5, was
quick to comment on the new look.
He joked: "@WayneRooney looks like you got a shape up, looks decent.
I was expecting a full head a hair + extensions etc!?
"Can't wait to see you in the mirror after training styling your
locks with loads a products ala ronaldo!"
And Wayne's wife Coleen also had a joke on Twitter. Sheree Murphy,
married to Australian international Harry Kewell, commented: "@ColeenRoo
Can't believe how young Wayne looks with he's new hair! It looks
great! Have a lovely holiday x" to which Coleen replied: "Haha! He
will be asking @gagsy8 to style it soon!! Thanks you too x"
The eight-hour follicular unit extraction transplant procedure was
performed under local anaesthetic at the Queen Anne Street Medical
Centre, home to the Harley Street Hair Clinic.
Individual hairs are removed from a donor patch, one at a time,
using a punch-like precise micro-surgical tool, leaving
pinprick-size wounds which heal quickly.
The hairs are then “planted” into tiny incisions. The procedure is
available at only a handful of clinics across Europe and is thought
to have cost Rooney about £10,000
He is today flying to Barbados with wife Coleen, 25, and
19-month-old son Kai for a summer holiday.
