He's one of the most famous faces in the world, with millions to his name, and he's a global sporting icon in status. But, not only that, former Manchester United and England footballer, David Beckham, has a history of having great hair!

The Beckham brand has grossed millions since his rise to fame in the late 1990s, and much of that has been down to Beckham's style and image. David's hair has also played a big part in his success.

However, in recent times, many people have questioned whether David Beckham has had work done on his locks, as he was evidently thinning in his 30s, only to have much thicker looking strands by the time he reached his 40s. The obvious assumption would be that he's had a hair transplant. 

So, let's take a look through the years of Beckham's hair, and try to establish whether he has indeed had a hair transplant, or not... 

If we look back to 2000, we see a young David Beckham, which gives us a clear view of what his original hairline was. As you can see from the image (above) that his hairline, like most guys in their 20s, was full, and low down on his forehead. At this stage, there was no evidence of thinning or hairline recession. 
By 2015, Beckham's hairline looked to have receded quite a bit. This was the year that David turned 40, which is a very common time for men to start really losing their hair.  As you can see from the image (above), David's hairline receded a couple of inches since 2010, and it was clear that Becks was indeed experiencing early stages of male pattern baldness (Norwood Hamilton II-III). 
As you can see from this image (above), David Beckham's hairline was very much restored. The hairline, and overall density of his hair, looked thicker, and filled-in. It is absolutely clear that Becks had undergone hair transplantation surgery, in order to restore his hairline, and hair density. 
As you can see from this recent photo, David Beckham's hairline looks to have been fully filled in, with far more density that it was in 2015. It would be safe to say that this is due to a hair transplant. Although the hairline has been restored, you can tell that it does not look natural.
