While he's now got a full head of hair, that wasn't always the case for the Guildford lad - who jetted to Turkey to have the procedure.
Appearing in a YouTube video posted by the clinic he visited in Istanbul, Harry explained the process and showed off the before and after results.
He said: 'It was a perfect experience for something that I really wanted to have done and I'm very glad that I found EstePera.'
The Love Island villa was left reeling last night when the first person was dumped just days into the series.
During the first recoupling, Shakira Khan picked Harry - meaning Sophie Lee was left single and immediately sent packing.
Shakira, 22, had to choose between Harry, Blu Chegini and Conor Phillips.
And fans later insisted Shakira only went with Harry so that Helena Ford - who is in a couple with Conor, 25 - wouldn't be axed.
One fan wrote on social media: 'Shakira well wanted to pick Conor but didn't wanna send Helena home and for that I kinda respect it.
'But also she'd suit Conor well better.'
Another viewer added: 'No way she picked Harry for any reason other than she wanted the other women to stay… I simply don't believe it.'

And someone else said: 'I feel like she chose based on the girls, not the guys.'

A source previously told The Sun: 'This is the fastest sleepover in the Hideaway in Love Island's twelve series history - and what a gorgeous pair to do so. Advertisement 'In the past, producers had to invite Islanders to use the breakout bedroom which meant the love nest was generally not used until couples became more established. 'But producers have changed the rules of the breakout bedroom so it can be used at any time, without an invite. 'It means Helena and Harry could take advantage of the 'no invite needed' and explore their connection. 'The scenes will play out later this week, but bosses are unlikely to show anything too naughty, as is the show's usual approach.' Advertisement

Love Island 'eyeing up' bombshell who once enjoyed night out with Jack Grealish
Love Island bosses are reportedly looking to sign up a Devon model to appear on the ITV2 show as a bombshell this series Love Island has reportedly signed up a model who enjoyed a night out with Jack Grealish to enter the villa as a bombshell this series. Emma Silverton is a model from Devon and was once pictured leaving celebrity-favourite hotspot, Chiltern Firehouse, with Manchester City footballer Jack and his friend Jaydon Gibbs. When Jack, who welcomed his first child with partner Sasha Attwood, was pictured leaving the London venue, he exclaimed that "she's not with me!" and got into his vehicle alone. Model Emma, who is said to have previously been a hostess at the venue, was then spotted sharing a ride with Jaydon. Emma has worked with modelling agencies in New York and Sydney and even collaborated with luxury brands like Burberry and Issey Miyake. In new reports, it has been claimed ITV bosses are hoping to sign her up as a bombshell for the current series of Love Island. A source claimed Emma is "an absolute showstopper" before calling her "lots of fun". Speaking to The Sun, they claimed: "As always, bombshells are picked as the action unfolds to ensure the most tempting Islanders are chosen to suit each storyline." The Mirror have reached out to ITV for comment. Meanwhile, there was a big decision to make for two Islanders on Love Island on Thursday night. A cliffhanger brought an abrupt end to a rather brutal recoupling. There were some surprises and some new couples, before a final blow was dealt for more than one contestant. It was the girls' turn to pick a boy to couple up with, after the arrival of two bombshells. As proceedings got underway, many of the couples switched up with new pairings revealed, and some expected couples not making the cut. After all the girls chose their men, there were still two boys left not in a couple. In a huge twist, it was announced the boys - Blu and Shea - had to come to an agreement with each other on who should leave the villa. Rather awkwardly both men declared they were going nowhere, refusing to sacrifice their place on the show. Blu refused to leave, with Shea agreeing he was going nowhere too. The Islanders watched on awkwardly as both men refused to back down. In true Love Island fashion, the episode was cut short with a classic cliffhanger.
