Bald David Beckham shaves son Romeo's head despite his own disastrous DIY buzz-cut during luxury yacht trip
However, it was perhaps a risky move given that David, 50, recently suffered a major hair disaster when the guard came off his clippers leaving him with a triangle shape at the front of his head.
Romeo shared the picture on Instagram after his brother Cruz stole his father's look the day before and larked around on board wearing a pair of tight white pants.
Fans were loving the picture of Romeo and David and flocked to the comment section to mock David, writing: 'lol don't let the guard on the cutters fall off (laughing emojis).';
'HOW ARE YOU TRUSTING @davidbeckham AFTER HIS (rolling on the floor laughing emojis)';
'Oh lord your trusting your dad with the clippers after his mishap (laughing emojis).
It's not the first time Romeo has taken inspiration from his famous father.
He has notably emulated several of his father David's iconic fashion looks, particularly from the late 90s and early 2000s.
However, it appears it runs deep in the family too, as the former footballer's style choices made headlines this week when his son Cruz, 20, appeared to take inspiration from him in some $550 (£410) white Prada pants.
David had been spotted wearing a strikingly similar pair of pants on holiday as recently as last year, and the look was reminiscent of his iconic Armani underwear campaigns.
Elsewhere in the Instagram photo dump, Romeo showed off his athletic physique in a pair of red swimming shorts as he lived it up on the yacht.
Meanwhile, in another snap, he sported a white vest, which showcased his tattoos, and a beige bucket hat as he enjoyed lunch with footballer Mitchell Curry, 26.
The holiday snaps come after former Manchester United and England midfielder David was left visibly fuming after almost scalping himself while attempting a DIY buzz-cut with a pair of clippers last month.
Beckham had attempted to ditch his conventional short-beck-and-sides in favour of the shaved look he famously debuted at the height of his footballing glory in 2000.
Fans flocked to the comment section to jokingly mock the former professional footballer, with one writing: 'lol don't let the guard on the cutters fall off (laughing emojis).'
David is known for being a style chameleon when it comes to hair and sported the buzz cut look back in 2000, before revisiting it in 2004 (pictured), 2008 and as recently as this year
But the former footballer came a cropper after the head fell from his clippers mid-shave, leaving him with a glaring bald patch on the top of his head.
Having already shaved much of his hair to a fine stubble, the error left Beckham with few options, and nothing to conceal the exposed patch of skin.
Worse, he was given little sympathy from his wife Victoria, who appeared to revel in her husband's misfortune by sharing a video of his uneven buzz-cut with Instagram followers.
'It does not look good,' she admits as a crestfallen Beckham reluctantly shows her the bald patch. 'I'm going to always be honest with you - it looks terrible.'
Beckham has opted for the buzz-cut on numerous occasions since debuting the look during a Premier League match against Leicester City more than 20 years ago.
During a recent interview with former teammate and best friend Gary Neville for the Overlap podcast, the retired footballer even admitted it was his favourite hairstyle.
'I always like the skinhead,' he said. 'I always loved the skinhead, because it was easy and you didn't have to do anything with it.'

Lottie Moss cuts an elegant figure in white beaded dress as she leads the stars at the Materialists gala screening
Lottie Moss cut an elegant figure as she led the stars attending the UK gala screening of Materialists at the Picturehouse Central in London on Tuesday night. The socialite and half-sister, 27, kept it simple in a figure hugging white dress adorned with silver beads. Showing off her array of tattoos down her arms, the star styled her blonde locks in voluminous curls and accessorised with dangly silver earrings. She was joined at the screening by designer Kimberley Garner, TV personality Michelle Heaton and Made In Chelsea stars Yasmine Zweeger, Tabitha Willett and Miles Nazaire. Kimberley, 34, flashed her toned abs in a satin cream strapless bra top and matching long skirt. Meanwhile Michelle, 46, put on a very busty display in a cream mini dress with mesh lace detailing across her chest and shoulders. Romantic comedy Materialists stars Dakota Johnson as a matchmaker in the enviable position of having to choose between leading men Chris Evans and Pedro Pascal. The film, written and directed by Celine Song, received a warm 87-percent rating from the critics at Rotten Tomatoes and audiences responded with a heartfelt $12 million at the box office. Lottie's red carpet look comes after she recently opened up about having her filler dissolved, admitting that she is now opting for a more natural look. The star also had a tattoo removed from her face as part of the transformation that was revealed in an exclusive video to the Daily Mail. Lottie told Dr Rosh, who is regarded as the world's number one aesthetics doctor: 'You fixed me.' She said: 'I've got a bruise on my lip because I'm dissolving all of my filler, but I just feel like myself again. Like, my face looks like me again.' Last month Lottie detailed her nightmare flight after she landed in London Stansted and took to her Instagram to update her followers about the mishap that happened on her way back from St. Tropez in the south of France. Supermodel Lottie tagged British Airways in her Story, where she appeared to be complaining about the airline. She explained how she was feeling worse for wear after going out five nights in a row and was still stressed as her luggage had yet to arrive on time. Wearing oversized sunglasses in her video, Lottie began: 'I cannot explain to you - please ignore my voice, I've been literally out every night for the past five nights in St Tropez - but, I've had the worst experience with British Airways today, I cannot even tell you. 'My journey starts at 8am and it's literally not even finished yet because the bags haven't arrived. The plane was four hours late.' Lottie went on to share how when the flight landed, passengers had to wait for a further 25 minutes before they were allowed off the flight. She continued: 'We landed, sat on the tarmac here for like, 25 minutes, and the bags still aren't here. It doesn't say awaiting baggage, it doesn't say baggage completed.' Visibly agitated, she added: 'I'm gonna lose my f**king mind.'

Bob Vylan Glastonbury set sparks antisemitism surge as hate incidents hit six-month high the following day
ANTISEMITIC incidents hit a six-month high a day after punk duo Bob Vylan's controversial Glastonbury gig. A total of 26 were reported after rapper Bobby Vylan chanted ' Death, death to the IDF (Israel Defence Forces)' during the set. 2 2 The Community Security Trust, which monitors antisemitism in Britain, described the responses to events at the festival as 'absolutely chilling'. Police say inquiries are continuing in relation to the comments at the gig, which the BBC chose to livestream. The CST said the next worst day so far this year was May 17 — a day after Israel said it was expanding military operations in Gaza — when 19 incidents were recorded. A spokesman said: 'Both of these cases illustrate how sentiment and rhetoric towards Israel and Zionism influence, shape and drive contemporary anti-Jewish discourse, online and offline, often around totemic events that grab mainstream public attention.' Over the six months, there were 76 violent anti-Jewish assaults, three rated as 'extreme', the charity said. There were 84 incidents of damage and desecration of Jewish property, 21 of mass-produced antisemitic literature and 1,236 of verbal or written abuse. The six-month January to June total was 1,521, down on the 2,019 in the same period for 2024. CST chief executive Mark Gardner said the figures demonstrate 'extreme levels of Jew-hatred, committed in the name of anti-Israel activism'. Home Secretary Yvette Cooper called the numbers 'shamefully and persistently high'. She said antisemitism 'has a profoundly damaging impact on the individuals affected and the wider Jewish community' and said the Government was determined to 'root out the poison'.
