Manchester United and England striker Wayne Rooney has announced on Twitter that he has undergone a hair transplant in a bid to cure his baldness.
The Sun reported on Saturday morning that Rooney was undergoing treatment at Queen Anne Street Medical Centre in London after he was photographed emerging from the clinic with a baseball cap and a hoodie on.
After having his cover blown, Rooney then confirmed he was undergoing the treatment, which involves removing hair follicles from an area of high concentration and planting them in the desired spot.
Rooney tweeted: "Just to confirm to all my followers I have had a hair transplant. I was going bald at 25 why not. I'm delighted with the result.
"It's still a bit bruised and swollen when it dies down u will be first to see it. Anyone recommend any good hair gel. Haha."
The England star then successfully appealed to his 740,000 followers to get #hairwego trending, with the term quickly becoming the second top global trend on the website.
Rooney added: "I had it done in Harley street hair clinic London. Thanks to all the staff who looked after me."
The news drew reaction from fellow footballers on Twitter. Manchester United team-mate Rio Ferdinand tweeted: "just don't go down the wearing a alice band route!! You'll be doing head&shoulders adverts soon! Hope its gone ok Good luck lad."
Meanwhile, fellow Liverpudlian Joey Barton appeared sceptical of Rooney's announcement, tweeting: "tell me ur jesting waz? Hair transplant??"
