00:00Yeah, and so I had a hair transplant. So basically, this is a true story, right? I'll be totally honest
00:04with you. Look at that.
00:05It's good, man. Mate, it's unbelievable. It is really good. Look at that. I thought a hair transplant was going
00:11to be like a tattoo.
00:12I thought you just like, do it on it. It was going to be a fist bump. There you go.
00:15See you later. Oh my God.
00:18Can I show you? I'm going to show you the pictures of what it, this is what? Okay, hang on.
00:23Oh my God.
00:25That is intense. Isn't that intense? That is intense. You had a lot done as well.
00:29No, I didn't have a lot done. I had like a little, hey, it was like a smidge.
00:35It's a smidge. Jesus Christ. It's a smidge. All right. It was a smidge.
00:39It was like a really intense, like eight hours sitting in a chair, like putting in, it was just the
00:45front bit here, doing all these different things.
00:47Then it was like four or five months afterwards. I mean, I have to say, you know, I've spent a
00:50lot of time, I've seen a lot of people definitely not as open as you about saying they've had a
00:55hair transplant.
00:56It's an amazing, amazing job, I must admit.
00:59But do you know what, man, like this is the thing, like guys, right, especially guys, like we're in this
01:03like current climate of people don't talk about things, right?
01:05Absolutely.
01:06And especially guys don't talk about stuff because guys worry so much about losing their hair on the phone.
01:11Why do we have hair? Like as we get off, we get nose hair, we get ears hair, our bush.
01:17It comes everywhere except where you want it to be.
01:20It falls off.
01:20Exactly.
01:21It falls off the place that you want it to stay.
01:23Exactly.
01:24I don't get it.
01:24Yeah, it's one of God's cool tricks in staying on us.
01:28But the only problem with this, right, okay, this one I didn't realise about a hair transplant, okay, so I
01:32had the front of my hair done here, right, just there, okay, the rest of my hair, that's all normal
01:36hair.
01:36I didn't realise with a hair transplant that you get the front of your head done here, but this part
01:41can still recede.
01:42That means I'm just going to be left with two tufts of hair.
01:44Yes, yes.
01:44This is something that people don't really think about.
01:47And I could then just have it, I'd be like a unicorn, I'd just have like this at the front
01:49of my head, so that's the only thing I'm freaking out.
01:51People love unicorns though, so.
01:52Yeah, but not a human one.
01:54I wouldn't even be like.
01:55Let's keep it a mystery.
01:56Yeah, you can always get more done.
01:59So you've been, you know, obviously now, and I believe in the past at times quite open about having a
02:04hair transplant, like kind of what led you to take the difference?
02:08I wasn't, I didn't want to be open about it, right?
02:10I wasn't, I wasn't going to be open, okay, but then, then my agency, I had my hair transplant done.
02:14Yeah.
02:15I thought it was going to honestly be a tattoo, so I was just like, sweet, just keep it on
02:17the cover.
02:18Oh my God, it was full on.
02:19Like you had, I'd wear a hat for like two months, like all these different things.
02:23And apparently loads of people have it, I mean.
02:24Yeah.
02:25Like, like a lot of people.
02:26A lot.
02:27Yeah.
02:27A lot of people don't talk about it.
02:28Anyway, my agency then got emailed saying that a, that a very big newspaper had pictures of my hair transplant.
02:38I was like, how?
02:39They were like, they're like, did you send it to anyone?
02:42I was like, no, I didn't send it to anyone.
02:43I was like, this is fricking horrendous.
02:46So I was like, well, what am I going to do?
02:47They're going to post all these pictures of me having a hair transplant.
02:49So I'm going to have to come out with it.
02:50So I went on Made in Chelsea and said, look, had a hair transplant, beat them to it.
02:55Turns out it was never anyone.
02:59It wasn't any media doing it.
03:01It was my friend Rodney playing a joke.
03:04Oh my God.
03:05That's, I've never heard that.
03:06That is the best story I've ever heard in my life.
03:08Yeah, yeah.
03:08That is terrible.
