Wayne Rooney Round 2

I reckon he will eventually end up going the shaved route and add in some tattooing to help it along. May look ok then.

I dont think he will get cosmetically pleasing result without having to use concealer from his HT's.

It would be interesting to know his final graft count. I suspect he is now out of donor unless he goes down the body hair route. I didnt rate his first HT at all. It gave him a better hairline and framed his face, but the density was very poor. I suspect he will always have to wear concealer. Having 2 HT by the age of 27 is pretty risky in my opinion. I hope for his sake he doesnt head towards a nw7 by his mid 30's otherwise he is going to look very odd.
He won't look odd as he has had hair put all over the entire frontal zone

Well, if his sides drop to a NW7 he will look odd, doesen't matter that he had grafts redieved on the top.

Time will tell with Wayne, hopefully he was fully informed on all aspects of his Ht and knows about possible future loss etc.

I do hope he gets the result he wants.

There are some new pictures up on the Daily Mail showing Wayne Rooney.

Here is the title of the article with pictures toward the bottom.

Feeling like a gooseberry? Bradley Cooper and Gerard Butler bond at Wimbledon leaving Suki Waterhouse out

Good find Topcat, his air looks thin, wonder if its shock loss or if he is losing more hair on top.

Seen a couple of pictures of him at Wimbledon. Whilst the first 5-10mm of his hairline is intact from his first hair transplant, the remaining frontal third appears very sparse.
Hopefully he is experiencing shockloss to the frontal third area (which grows back) otherwise the results of his first HT would not appear to be satisfactory, which i have always suspected.
But as we do not know how many grafts he had during his first HT, it is very difficult to make judgement.

He was caking on the concealer on his midscalp post Op1 so its hard to tell his status there at the moment.

I suspect he was really thin there from the pics i seen of him here and there. It will be interesting to see how OP 2 goes. As i said if i was him id hit some tattooing and keep it shaved. Could look ok then.

I dont think he will get good denisty growing it out longer with his characteristics and future loss that looks progressing.

Well I do have to give him credit. It's takes a lot of strength to sit there like that, certainly not an easy thing to do.

Will be interesting to see his long term result as long term is what matters or should matter for everyone.

At the moment I feel very bad for him as he reminds me of myself so hopefully he gets through it.

He has a very good beard though, shame he didnt go to bhr to start with and do beard and scalp fue. Hopefully he gets a decent result and stops styling his hair in that stupid comb over thing he does.

Hi Ct . Thanks. I do plan to grow it out prob at the 12 months stage. Enjoying the ease of buzzing it myself in the summer. Also good to get most of the hair similar density before growing out i think.

Re Rooney i think his characteristics are against him. Im nearly 10 years older than him and he had more loss than me. The rest of my hair has stabilised elsewhere so aside from bullking up in front of crown i should hopefully be set long term after Op2. I also had high donor density a lot of multi hair grafts. Rooney may have low counts in both which are crucial to a HT success. With Rooney its unknown how much he could progress. It dosent look good with his family history, hair quality and age.

His choice of clinic has compounded his dfficulty in my opinion. If he went to a top class clinic i would be more optimistic.

I agree it doesn't look very dense but i think it still suits him short and we have to remember it hasn't grown in yet...... and the guy is showing honest outdoor pictures now under natural light which is good.

I think it may look ok when grown. I hope so for his sake too.

The guy is one month out (Ugly Duckling phase) so we cant really comment on density or results as he has shed he's transplanted hair. Takes balls for him to come out in the media and i wish him all the best and if the worse happened, he has plenty off body hair!

I've a fear I'll end up like Rooney after a ht. I'm not sure the hair behind my frontal area would grow back the same if I shaved it down.

Can't wait to see his new growth when it kicks in....all things considered i actually think he looks ok with the buzzed look he has a hairline now and he didn't before. I know its not a blow you away result from the first ht and some would say its a failure but its better than before imo and he is outside exposing a buzzed down ht with no layering effect because its too short.

If you are able to create a hairline it dose deffinetly look bether than without a hairline even if your sides drop.

This is a bit sad and a bit pathetic from this reporter who is trying to poke fun at both Rooneys hair and his current situation at man utd.....Why do people find hairloss and peoples misery such a joke.

Wayne Rooney told to choose between hair loss treatments

Unsettled Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney has been told that he needs to end speculation about his future and decide once-and-for-all which hair loss product he wishes to be associated with.

€˜It has long been known that Rooney €™s hair follicles are seeking a transfer away from their current position on his scalp, but this uncertainty about where they €™ll end up is no good for anyone, €™ said one male health expert. €˜There are a number of leading brands out there, but Rooney needs decide which is for him. Does he stick with what he knows and continue with Regaine, or make a fresh start with Propecia? €™

Some pundits argue that there has been an irreparable breakdown in the relationship between Rooney and his hairline. €˜There €™s definitely been a parting of the waves, and the two sides are only getting further apart, €™ said Match of the Day €™s Alan Hansen. €˜Rooney €™s hair is finally tiring of being played out of position, and it €™s threatening to leave. And I can understand why €“ all too often it €™s found itself isolated up front with no support coming forward from the back. €™

But Manchester United continue to insist that Rooney €™s hair is not about to leave. €˜We €™ll do anything to keep Wayne €™s hair here, where it belongs, €™ said manager David Moyes. €˜We €™re confident he €™ll sign now that we €™ve upped his terms and offered him a Bobby Charlton comb-over.
