50 Celebrities Who Have Had Hair Transplants

Hair transplantation is a surgical method that removes hair follicles from one section of the body, referred to as the ‘donor site,’ to a bald or balding section recognized as the ‘recipient site.’ The approach is notably used to deal with male sample baldness. Grafts with hair follicles that are genetically resistant to balding (like those found in the head area) are transplanted to the bald scalp during this minimally invasive treatment.

Since hair naturally grows in clusters of one to four hairs, modern techniques harvest and transplant hair “follicular units” in their clusters of herbs. Thus, contemporary hair transplantation can gain a herbal look by mimicking authentic hair orientation. This hair transplant method is called follicular unit transplantation (FUT). Strip harvesting and follicular unit extraction are the two distinct methods for harvesting donor hair (FUE).

Pursuing a hair transplant can be frightening, and many people feel like the only ones dealing with hair loss and opting for surgical treatment. These people need to be aware that they are not alone. Information about celebrities who have experienced hair loss and who we believe have had hair transplants has been compiled for us.

1. Joe Biden

Full Name	Joseph Robinette Biden Jr.
Date of Birth	November 20, 1942
Place of Birth	Scranton, Pennsylvania, U.S.
Occupation	Politician, lawyer, author

It’s believed that Joe Biden (born November 20, 1942) has had two to three hair transplants starting in the 1980s. His initial hair transplant was probably done using the FUT technique, which is less natural-looking than current hair transplants.

He seems to have had a touch-up procedure, in our opinion, before the most recent election. He has a history of using Rogaine to help halt his hair loss.

2. Elon Musk

Full Name	Elon Reeve Musk
Date of Birth	June 28, 1971
Place of Birth	Pretoria, Transvaal, South Africa
Occupation	usiness magnate and investor

Elon Musk (born June 28, 1971) would have required two hair transplants to cover up his comparatively aggressive hair loss. He hasn’t formally stated whether or not he had a hair transplant, but between 2010 and 2018, he most likely underwent multiple transplants.

When his hair loss was at its worst, he appeared to have a Norwood scale 4, which would have required 4,000 to 5,000 grafts to cover his bald spots completely. Elon Musk’s hair transplants should have cost between $20,000 and $30,000.

3. Donald Trump

Full Name	Donald John Trump
Date of Birth	June 14, 1946
Place of Birth	Queens, New York City, U.S.
Occupation	Politician, businessman, media personality

Donald Trump (born on June 14, 1946) undoubtedly underwent at least one hair transplant procedure, despite never having formally acknowledged it. The FUT hair transplant incision at the back of the head is visible in several photos.

While he still has a fuller head of hair than most people in their 70s, the way his hair looks is quite unnatural. He probably underwent his initial hair transplant sometime in the 1980s.

4. Cristiano Ronaldo

Full Name	Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro
Date of Birth	February 5, 1985
Place of Birth	Funchal, Madeira, Portugal
Occupation	Professional footballer

Cristiano Ronaldo (born 5 February 1985) is a fan favorite footballer who still has a full head of hair in addition to his good looks. While he has not yet succumbed to hair loss, he is committed to fighting alopecia, a medical condition that causes premature baldness.

Ronaldo owns a hair transplant clinic with the Insparya Group, which has ten clinics throughout Portugal. He believes the clinic will benefit both people suffering from hair loss and the Spanish economy.

5. David Beckham

Full Name	David Robert Joseph Beckham
Date of Birth	May 2, 1975
Place of Birth	London, England
Occupation	Footballer, businessman

Although many people have hypothesized that David Robert Joseph Beckham OBE (born 2 May 1975) underwent a hair transplant in 2018, he has never publicly confirmed it.

He was between a Norwood scale of 2 and 3 and had balding at the crown of his head and thinning along the top of his head. Our specialists think he underwent an FUE transplant.

6. Wayne Rooney

Full Name	Wayne Mark Rooney
Date of Birth	October 24, 1985
Place of Birth	Liverpool, England
Occupation	Professional football manager and former player

Wayne Mark Rooney (born 24 October 1985) is one of the few famous people interested in publicly sharing his hair transplant journey. He has disclosed information about the two transplants he underwent using the FUE technique at the Harley Street Clinic in London.

His Norwood scale three hair loss necessitated a 2,500 hair graft initial transplant in 2011 and an additional 1,000 hair grafts in 2013.

7. Sylvester Stallone

Full Name	Michael Sylvester Gardenzio Stallone
Date of Birth	July 6, 1946
Place of Birth	Manhattan, New York, U.S.
Occupation	Actor, filmmaker

Hair loss was not very advanced, Sylvester Enzio Stallone was born (6 July 1946). Before 2013, he seemed to be at a two on the Norwood scale. Since his hairline then appeared much lower and fuller, we think he had a hair transplant in 2013. He wouldn’t have needed many grafts to fill in the area around his temples.

8. Gordon Ramsay

Full Name	Gordon James Ramsay
Date of Birth	November 8, 1966
Place of Birth	Johnstone, Renfrewshire, Scotland
Occupation	Chef, restaurateur, television personality and writer

Gordon James Ramsay OBE (born 8 November 1966) is a British chef, television personality, restaurateur, and writer. 

We think it is obvious that he must have had an FUE hair transplant around 2011, even though he has never publicly acknowledged receiving treatment. His hair loss peaked at about a Norwood scale of 3 at one point. He most likely had a 2,500 graft transplant to restore his receding hairline and the temporal region.

9. Tom Hanks

Full Name	Thomas Jeffrey Hanks
Date of Birth	July 9, 1956
Place of Birth	Concord, California, U.S.
Occupation	Actor, filmmaker

Our experts believe Tom Hanks (born July 9, 1956), who has not confirmed seeking treatment for hair loss, must have undergone a hair transplant. Sometime in 2014, he had a transplant that improved his hairline in a subtle, natural way.

He had a Norwood scale two condition, which is characterized by a receding hairline at the temples. He now has a full hairline that is age-appropriate, thanks to the hair transplant.

10. Jude Law

Full Name	David Jude Heyworth Law
Date of Birth	December 29, 1972
Place of Birth	London, England
Occupation	Actor

Jude Law (born 29 December 1972) has not publicly addressed his hair loss or evolving hairline in the past. When his hair loss was at its worst, he was experiencing advanced baldness on a Norwood scale of 3 or 4. Before turning to more permanent treatments, he initially tried to hide his hair loss by frequently donning hats in public.

In our opinion, he had two transplants, the first in 2011 and the second in 2014. Although the first procedure didn’t produce long-lasting results, it is unclear if he has used finasteride or minoxidil to stop his hair loss despite the fact that he appears to have undergone FUE method transplants both times.

11. Mel Gibson

Full Name	Mel Columcille Gerard Gibson
Date of Birth	January 3, 1956
Place of Birth	Peekskill, New York, U.S.
Occupation	Actor, film director, film producer

Mel Gibson (born January 3, 1956) hasn’t admitted to getting a hair transplant, but the change in his hairline suggests that he did. Before treatment, his Norwood scale score for his progressive hair loss was 4. He reportedly underwent a transplant in 2005. He now has an entire hairline suitable for his age and looks great on him.

12. Matthew McConaughey

Full Name	Matthew David McConaughey
Date of Birth	November 4, 1969
Place of Birth	Uvalde, Texas, U.S.
Occupation	Actor

Matthew McConaughey (born November 4, 1969) has said that he only uses the drug Regenix to treat his hair loss. He has denied getting a hair transplant. He had a Norwood scale 2’s significantly receding hairline at the temples.

His temples seemed to have gotten much fuller and laid further forward after 2014. Without the aid of a hair transplant, it is extremely unlikely that he would have noticed these new hair growth results.

13. Kevin Costner

Full Name	Kevin Michael Costner
Date of Birth	January 18, 1955
Place of Birth	Lynwood, California, U.S.
Occupation	Actor, producer, film director, musician

Neither a confirmation nor a denial that Costner (born January 18, 1955) sought treatment for his hair loss has been made in an official statement. He must have undergone a hair transplant between 2006 and 2007, according to our experts.

He was roughly at a Norwood scale 3 for hair loss and had visible signs of a receding hairline and top-of-head thinning. He had what we believe to be an FUE hair transplant after 2007, which resulted in a lower hairline and increased density at the top of his head.

14. Sean Penn

Full Name	Sean Justin Penn
Date of Birth	August 17, 1960
Place of Birth	Santa Monica, California, U.S.
Occupation	Actor, film director

Sean Penn (born on August 17, 1960) has not made any public comments regarding his baldness. He had receding temples and a Norwood scale of 2 degrees of hair loss. His temples have grown hair again, suggesting that he may have undergone a hair transplant in the past. His treatment has produced very natural-looking results.

15. James Nesbitt

Full Name	William James Nesbitt
Date of Birth	January 15, 1965
Place of Birth	Broughshane, County Antrim, Northern Ireland
Occupation	Actor

One of the few famous people, James Nesbitt (born 15 January 1965), has been very open about getting a hair transplant and how it has lessened his insecurities. Before starting treatment, he had Norwood scale four hair loss, which is a fairly advanced stage.

Over a ten-year period beginning in 2007, the Hair Restoration Blackrock clinic performed six hair transplants on him. In total, he’s had about 10,000 hair grafts transplanted. To enhance the quality of his hair and halt further hair loss, he has been using minoxidil.

16. Jon Cryer

Full Name	Jonathan Niven Cryer
Date of Birth	April 16, 1965
Place of Birth	New York City, New York, U.S.
Occupation	Actor, writer, director, producer

On a Norwood scale of 5, with extensive thinning and balding at the top of the head and along the hairline, Cryer (born April 16, 1965) had an advanced form of hair loss. Despite talking about using coverups while filming TV shows to hide his hair loss, he hasn’t disclosed that he’s had a hair transplant.

He must have undergone at least one hair transplant, and most likely several, based on the obvious improvement in his hair density.

17. Chris Martin

Full Name	Christopher Anthony John Martin
Date of Birth	March 2, 1977
Place of Birth	Exeter, England
Occupation	Singer, songwriter, musician, producer, philanthropist

Despite the fact that he hasn’t addressed his baldness Martin (born on 2 March 1977) has unmistakably had a hair transplant. Before his hairline changed, he was roughly a Norwood scale of 2 or 3. A comparison of photos taken of him in 2009 and 2011 reveals a startling transformation from an M-shaped hairline to a full, youthful hairline.

We can infer that he had a hair transplant in 2010, probably with the FUE technique. To get these results, we think it took about 1,000 hair grafts.

18. Nicolas Cage

Full Name	Nicolas Kim Coppola
Date of Birth	January 7, 1964
Place of Birth	Long Beach, California, U.S.
Occupation	Actor, producer

Although the difference in his hair line makes it obvious that he must have, Cage (born January 7, 1964) hasn’t confirmed rumors that he’s had a hair transplant. 

Approximately a Norwood scale 4 with an aggressively receding hair line, he was exhibiting hair loss symptoms. We estimate that he received a hair transplant around 2014.

19. Kyran Bracken

Full Name	Kyran Paul Patrick Bracken
Date of Birth	November 22, 1971
Place of Birth	Dublin, Ireland
Occupation	Former rugby union footballer

Kyran Paul Patrick Bracken (born 22 November 1971) in interviews, the former rugby star has been open about the insecurities brought on by his hair loss and his worries that he will go bald like his father. Before deciding to get a FUE hair transplant in 2006, he seemed to be a Norwood scale 3 person.

A total of 2,500 hair grafts were used to restore his receding hairline. At first, he was happy with the results, but then he realized that his natural hair was still balding around the transplanted hair. This suggests that following his hair transplant, he did not take any medications like finasteride or minoxidil.

20. Robbie Williams

Full Name	Robert Peter Williams
Date of Birth	February 13, 1974
Place of Birth	Stoke-on-Trent, England
Occupation	Singer, songwriter

Robbie Williams, who was born on February 13, 1974, has been open about getting a hair transplant in 2013. He underwent an FUE method procedure, like Bracken, and was initially pleased with the outcomes until he noticed additional balding after the transplant.

To hide the further thinning and create the appearance of greater density, he has started applying powder.

21. Jürgen Klopp

Full Name	Jürgen Norbert Klopp
Date of Birth	June 16, 1967
Place of Birth	Stuttgart, West Germany
Occupation	Professional football manager and former player

In a press interview, Jürgen Klopp (born 16 June 1967) acknowledged that he had a hair transplant and expressed his satisfaction with the results. Before seeking treatment in 2012, he had Norwood scale two hair loss, a less severe form of the condition.

Malte Villnow performed an FUE hair transplant on him in Düsseldorf, Germany.

22. Calum Best

Full Name	Calum Milan Best
Date of Birth	February 6, 1981
Place of Birth	San Jose, California, U.S.
Occupation	Television personality

Calum Best (born on February 6, 1981), who was suffering from hair loss that was affecting his confidence, turned to the Crown Clinic in the UK for help. To treat his Norwood scale three hair loss, he underwent a total of three FUE methods procedures.

In the initial procedure, 1,200 hair grafts were transplanted to produce the desired outcomes for Best. Because he didn’t want to take a chance on potential side effects, he chose not to take finasteride in the form of Propecia. His hair loss has progressed. As a result, necessitates multiple transplants.

23. Steve Carell

Full Name	Steven John Carell
Date of Birth	August 16, 1962
Place of Birth	Concord, Massachusetts, U.S.
Occupation	Actor, comedian, screenwriter, producer

The well-known actor hasn’t released a formal statement regarding his hair loss or any potential treatments he tried. Steve Carell (born August 16, 1962) appeared to be at a Norwood scale two before treatment; he didn’t have an aggressive form of hair loss. He most likely underwent an FUE hair transplant between 2001 and 2003, in our opinion.

Although he hasn’t admitted to using Propecia, the actor on The Office has been the target of several jokes about his hair loss and medication use.

24. Enrique Iglesias

Full Name	Enrique Miguel Iglesias Preysler
Date of Birth	May 8, 1975
Place of Birth	Madrid, Spain
Occupation	Singer, songwriter, record producer, composer, actor

Iglesias (born on May 8, 1975) hasn’t publicly stated whether he’s had hair loss treatment, but it’s well known that his father, Julio Iglesias, tried unsuccessfully to get a hair transplant. Before he manifested a clear improvement as a result of a hair transplant, Enrique Iglesias appeared to be experiencing Norwood scale three symptoms.

Even though in the modern era, an FUE method is preferred, he could have undergone a FUT method procedure to transplant a large number of grafts.

25. Al Pacino

Full Name	Alfredo James Pacino
Date of Birth	April 25, 1940
Place of Birth	New York City, U.S.
Occupation	Actor, producer, director

American actor Alfredo James Pacino was born on April 25, 1940. Al Pacino has not made any public remarks involving his balding. He has a Norwood scale three degree of hair loss, but for a very long time, his longer coiffure allowed him to disguise the hair loss. His hairline appears much denser and lays lower on the head, although little is known for certain about his transplant.

26. Tom Brady

Date of Birth	August 3, 1977
Place of Birth	San Mateo, California, U.S.
Occupation	Football quarterback

Thomas Edward Patrick Brady Jr., a quarterback for the National Football League’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers, was born on August 3, 1977. (NFL). The idea of Tom Brady getting a hair transplant is the subject of numerous rumors. He was only slightly balding; on the Norwood scale, he was about two before treatment.

He may have undergone an FUE hair transplant in order to recover quickly and play football without too many setbacks.

27. Antonio Conte

Full Name	Antonio Conte
Date of Birth	July 31, 1969
Place of Birth	Lecce, Italy
Occupation	Professional football manager and former player

Antonio Conte Cavaliere OMRI (born on 31 July 1969). At a young age, the Italian football coach experienced severe hair loss. He had a Norwood scale of 4 degrees of hair loss and significant top-of-head balding. He is thought to have undergone two hair transplant procedures, the first of which was performed using the FUT technique.

Early in the new millennium, when there was still much room for improvement in transplant technology, the first transplant was carried out. His first transplant results weren’t long-lasting, so in 2007, he went to Canada for additional surgery.

28. Elton John

Full Name	Reginald Kenneth Dwight
Date of Birth	March 25, 1947
Place of Birth	Pinner, Middlesex, England
Occupation	Singer, pianist, composer

In his autobiography from the late 1970s, Sir Elton Hercules John (25 March 1947) described receiving two painful and unsuccessful FUT hair transplants that did not yield the desired results. The technology for hair transplants at this time was still in its infancy, and the results were still unnatural.

He claimed that the reason he lost the transplanted hair was that he did not adhere to the doctor’s instructions. He had severe insecurities as a result of his advanced Norwood scale four hair loss, which drove him to seek treatment. He underwent a third FUE hair transplant in 2013 to correct the first one, and ever since, with the help of Rogaine and Propecia, he has maintained a full head of hair.

29. Lebron James

Full Name	LeBron Raymone James Sr.
Date of Birth	December 30, 1984
Place of Birth	Akron, Ohio, U.S.
Occupation	Professional basketball player

James LeBron Raymone Sr (born December 30, 1984) Even though James hasn’t publicly admitted to getting a hair transplant, everyone is aware of it. His hair loss underwent a very dramatic turnaround, going from a Norwood scale 4 (almost 5) to a full head of hair.

Pictures show he underwent a combination of FUE and FUT procedures because of the light scarring on the back of his head. We estimate that he had about 2,400 grafts transplanted based on the transplanted area.

30. Lewis-Hamilton

Full Name	Lewis Carl Davidson Hamilton
Date of Birth	January 7, 1985
Place of Birth	Stevenage, Hertfordshire, England
Occupation	Racing driver

Lewis-Hamilton (born 7 January 1985) had advanced hair loss that scored a four on the Norwood scale, though he hasn’t publicly acknowledged it. Although the improvement in his hair loss suggests, he underwent the hair restoration procedure, a hair transplant has not been confirmed.

The use of finasteride or minoxidil is thought to have contributed to the long-lasting results he has observed.

31. John Travolta

Full Name	John Joseph Travolta
Date of Birth	February 18, 1954
Place of Birth	Englewood, New Jersey, U.S.
Occupation	Actor, singer, aircraft pilot

Even though John Joseph Travolta (born February 18, 1954) has not publicly admitted to getting a hair transplant, the change in his hairline over the years is an undeniable sign that he must have done so.

To restore Travolta’s full head of hair, which he now has, would take about 4,000 hair grafts at a Norwood scale 4 level of progressive hair loss. We can put his surgery in the range of 2014 to 2016.

32. Jamie Foxx

Full Name	Eric Marlon Bishop
Date of Birth	December 13, 1967
Place of Birth	Terrell, Texas, U.S.
Occupation	Actor, comedian, singer, record producer, songwriter

Although it is pretty obvious that Eric Marlon Bishop (born December 13, 1967) must have undergone a FUT hair transplant around 2007, he has never publicly acknowledged having one. Before the transplant, he had roughly Norwood scale two hair loss.

His hairline had appeared to advance significantly, having previously shown signs of hair loss. Around 2007, he also displayed a tattoo on the back of his head that covered the location of a FUT scar.

Full Name	David Josué Jiménez Silva
Date of Birth	January 8, 1986
Place of Birth	Arguineguín, Spain
Occupation	Professional footballer

Spanish professional footballer Silva (born on January 8, 1986). He currently plays for Real Sociedad of La Liga. Silva can play as a winger or a second striker but typically plays as a central or attacking midfielder.

Place of Birth	Oxford, England

According to Jamie Laing, FUE hair transplantation is anticipated to become popular in 2018. He had been criticized for his hair loss when out with his younger girlfriend, which caused him to look into hair loss treatment. He had a Norwood scale ranking of three levels of hair loss prior to the procedure. The procedure was performed in Nottingham for a total cost of about 7,000 USD.

Place of Birth	Baglan, Glamorgan, Wales
Occupation	Actor, comedian, presenter, singer, impressionist, writer

Welsh actor, comedian, impressionist, singer, presenter, and writer Robert Brydon Jones MBE was born on May 3, 1965.

Our specialists think he must have undergone the operation even if he hasn’t publicly admitted to seeking a hair transplant. His hairline is now thick and young, having recovered from a Norwood scale of 4 degrees of hair loss in recent years. We think he would have chosen an FUE transplant in the UK.

36. Andros Townsend

Place of Birth	Leytonstone, England
Occupation	Professional footballer

Andros Darryl Townsend, an English professional football player for Premier League team Everton, was born on July 16, 1991. He plays as a winger.

Although he never confirmed it, this well-known football star probably definitely underwent a hair transplant treatment. In 2015, he started to lose hair noticeably, and it looked like the process was completed in 2017. After 2017, his Norwood scale of 4 degrees of hair loss significantly improved. Our specialists think he would have had an FUE hair transplant in the UK.

37. Joe Rogan

Full Name	Joseph James Rogan
Date of Birth	August 11, 1967

Occupation	Podcaster, color commentator, comedian, actor, television presenter

American UFC color commentator, podcaster, actor, comedian, and former television host Joseph James Rogan was born on August 11, 1967.

Joe Rogan underwent a hair transplant in 1995, but he was not happy with the results. A significant scar was left on the back of his head since hair transplant methods at the time weren’t particularly sophisticated. This resulted in a hair transplant using the FUT technique. He presumably went to the USA for this hair transplant to treat his Norwood scale 3-degree hair loss. He has also been open about using Minoxidil, which for many years reduced his hair loss.

38. Bradley Cooper

Full Name	Bradley Charles Cooper
Date of Birth	January 5, 1975

Occupation	Actor, filmmaker

American actor and filmmaker Bradley Charles Cooper was born on January 5, 1975. The well-known actor has talked about using Propecia to stop the progression of his balding, but he hasn’t mentioned getting a hair transplant. Since his movie from 2009 showed him with a much fuller hairline, our specialists think he must have undergone an FUE hair transplant procedure in 2008. He likely underwent the transplantation of 1,500–2,000 hair grafts, according to our estimation.

39. Salman Khan

Full Name	Abdul Rashid Salim Salman Khan
Date of Birth	December 27, 1965
Place of Birth	Indore, Madhya Pradesh, India

Khan (born on December 27, 1965) has undergone a total of 4 hair transplant procedures—two FUE and two FUT. In 2003, he underwent a FUT hair transplant in India to begin his hair transplantation journey. He wasn’t completely happy with the results because they left a scar on the back of his head. After that, he made his way to Dubai for his FUE hair transplant. After this procedure, he was much happier with the results. His hair loss improved from a Norwood two to three degree to a full, thick head.

40. Jimmy Carr

Full Name	James Anthony Patrick Carr
Date of Birth	September 15, 1972
Place of Birth	London, England
Occupation	Comedian, presenter, writer, and actor

Jimmy Carr, a British actor and comedian is among the best examples of hair restoration done correctly. Before having a hair transplant, the comedian seemed to be at stage 3 on the Norwood scale, according to our experts. His hairline had slightly retreated, creating the appearance of a widow’s peak. However, the difference in Carr’s hairline was apparent as soon as he reappeared in 2020. Carr was not ashamed to admit that he had a hair transplant and frequently used his receding hairline as the punchline.

41. Kevin Costner

Full Name	Kevin Michael Costner
Date of Birth	January 18, 1955
Place of Birth	Lynwood, California, U.S.
Occupation	Actor, producer, film director, musician

Kevin Michael Costner is an American actor, producer, director, and musician who was born on January 18, 1955.

Hollywood legend Kevin Costner’s hair loss was the subject of a lot of discussions. The actor, who was approximately stage 4 on the Norwood scale, had top thinning and a noticeably receding hairline. Even though Costner hasn’t confirmed or denied the claims, the majority of experts agree that between 2006 and 2008 is when he underwent a hair transplant. His hairline was successfully lowered, and the density of his top hair was increased thanks to the hair transplant, as can be seen in the before and after pictures.

42. Mel Gibson

Full Name	Mel Columcille Gerard Gibson
Date of Birth	January 3, 1956
Place of Birth	Peekskill, New York, U.S.
Occupation	Actor, film director, film producer

Columcille, Mel Gerard Gibson AO is an American actor and director who was born on January 3, 1956.

Mel Gibson, the unflappable Hollywood hero, and his male pattern of baldness came under scrutiny before the 2000s. Gibson’s hair loss was quite advanced, with a pronounced receding hairline and obvious top baldness. On the Norwood scale, it might be between stages 4 and 5, based on estimation.

Recent images, though, show that Gibson has regained his hairline and density, perhaps with the aid of an FUE hair transplant. Gibson is thought to have had a hair transplant in the early 2000s, and the outcomes were quite impressive.

43. Kevin Spacey

Full Name	Kevin Spacey Fowler
Date of Birth	July 26, 1959
Place of Birth	South Orange, New Jersey, U.S.
Occupation	Actor, film producer, singer

Kevin Spacey, who was born on July 26, 1959, has long displayed severe symptoms of androgenic alopecia. On the Norwood scale, the actor’s hair loss can be estimated to be at stage 5. However, when Spacey sported a full head of hair in public in 2013, fans were horrified.

After much conjecture, experts concluded that Spacey had not had a hair transplant. He was merely donning a beautifully constructed hairpiece. After a transplant, hair growth can take some time. In Spacey’s case, the timelines just didn’t make sense, especially in light of the thickness of his new hair.

44. Rafael Nadal

Full Name	Rafael Nadal Parera
Date of Birth	June 3, 1986
Place of Birth	Manacor, Mallorca, Spain
Occupation	Professional tennis player

Rafael Nadal (born on 3 June 1986), struggles with his own hair issues. Nadal has attempted to cover up his hair loss with artistic hairstyles ever since he first joined the professional tour in 2004. Experts claim that Nadal gradually acquired diffused pattern alopecia.

After 2013, Nadal could no longer conceal the hair, and in 2016, he underwent his first hair transplant in Spain. His hair was reportedly saved by the transplant thanks to the FUE technique and 4,500 grafts. Nadal may require multiple hair transplant procedures to keep his full head of hair due to his severe form of hair loss.
