Harry Styles addresses hair transplant surgery rumours after years of speculation

Harry Styles has publicly addressed long-running rumours about his hairline, joking about speculation that he is secretly bald.

The 32-year-old singer made the remark during an appearance on Brittany Broski’s Royal Court, released on Wednesday. When asked by Broski whether his teeth were fake, Styles replied, “No.” He then added, “This hairline, though…” prompting laughter from the host.

Speculation surrounding the Grammy-winning artist’s hair began around four years ago after a DeuxMoi blind item claimed that an “A list musician / occasional actor” had gone “almost completely bald” and was wearing an exceptional wig. Online discussion quickly linked the rumour to Styles.

He previously addressed the claims in a 2022 interview with Rolling Stone, revealing that collaborator Kid Harpoon frequently sent him messages about the online debate. “He won’t stop sending me messages about [people] trying to work out if I’m bald,” Styles said at the time.

Reflecting on the speculation, he added, “What is it with baldness? It skips a generation or something, right? If your grandad’s bald then you’ll be bald? Well, my granddad wasn’t bald, so fingers crossed.”

The former One Direction member has become known for experimenting with his hairstyle over the years, from shoulder-length curls to a shaved head in 2023. 

Styles is set to return to the stage later this year for his Together, Together residency at Madison Square Garden in New York.
