Woman shares hilarious video of a 'Turkish hairlines' flight full of post-op men

Woman shares hilarious video of a 'Turkish hairlines' flight full of post-op men

Daily Mail​3 days ago

A plane passenger returning from a trip to Turkey captured the hilarious moment she spotted rows of male flyers onboard with prickly scalps, fresh from a hair transplant procedure.
Anna Malygon, a content creator from Kharkiv, Ukraine, uploaded a video to her Instagram page, @maligoshik, after she boarded a Turkish Airlines flight on 6 May.
She was left amused as she noticed a number of men taking their seats in rows ahead of her - with each sporting sore, shaved scalps peppered with giveaway 'hair follicle' incisions.
Turkey has become a popular destination for hair transplants, representing nearly 60 per cent of the global hair transplant tourism market thanks to its affordable, high-quality procedures.
The Turkish Healthcare Travel Council reports over 1 million people travel to Turkey annually for hair restoration treatments, and according to Dr. Serkan Aygin Clinic, the country is expected to receive 1.1 hair transplant patients in 2025.
In Malygon's video, she joked she was flying with 'Turkish Hairlines' - a term that arose due to the high volume of hair transplant tourists travelling to the country, resulting in the common sight of post-operative headbands on flights.
However, the content creator's clip hasn't gone down well with viewers who accused her of 'shaming' the men, while others defended the woman's 'funny' observation.
One person wrote, 'Bodyshaming is OK now?' while another said: 'So happy for these men. It's a courageous thing to do because of people who judge and shame them.'

A third commented: 'As a mom to two, now grown men, this is so offside. Women underestimate how devastating hair loss feels to men.'
Another viewer added: 'So women can get fake everything but men can't fix a hairline? Got it!'
However, one viewer hit back: 'Oh come on, I used to see this all the time when flying to Istanbul and it's hilarious. Can't we have a laugh about this?
Another wrote: 'She's just making a funny observation. I don't sense any shaming.'

It come after a set of 40 year-old triplets were so desperate to retain their identical looks they underwent matching hair transplants at the same time.
In what is believed to be a world first, brothers Julian, Eliot and Ryan Gregory, from Wales, embarked on the operation in a bid to achieve 'similar' hairlines.
While all began balding in their 30s, the rate of hair loss differed, making them appear 'less identical'.
The plan to restore the triplets' hair was orchestrated by brother Julian, a PR consultant from Pembrokeshire, after a trip to Thailand left him dissatisfied and insecure about his looks.

Molly-Mae Hague's sister Zoe gives her followers an update on her botched Botox in new clip after one eye was left drooping after injections

Molly-Mae Hague 's sister Zoe gave her followers an update on her botched Botox in a new clip posted to her Story on Wednesday. The fitness influencer, 28, was initially left with one eye partially closed after a trip to the clinic in February, telling her fans she 'could weep' at the state of her face. But just a few months later she was back again to 'rock her forehead lines' despite vowing never to return - with Zoe suffering a botched Botox which she described as even 'worse than last time'. The star has been left - once again - with one eye drooping below the other but on Wednesday reassured her followers it was getting better. Showing off her healing eye area she penned: 'EYE UPDATE. Still not great but my GOD it's soooo much better!!!! 3 weeks post incident I'm actually quite happy!' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Zoe revealed she was brutally mocked for her latest botched B otox by a passenger on an airplane, resulting in an explosive row. Zoe shared that during a recent trip to Portugal with a friend, she became embroiled in a dispute with one particularly rude passenger on their flight. Rocking a pair of sunglasses on her YouTube channel to hide the botch-job, she said: 'I actually had a really really upsetting experience just as we landed in Portugal. 'We were in a queue and there was another one going past us and there was this one horrible lady, I don't know if she was drunk - she must've been. 'She was trying to get past me and she said, "why are you just stood there like a d*******" and I was like, "why did you just call me that?" 'And her husband was like, "what's going on here" and I said, "your wife just called me that for literally no reason" and there was a bit of back and forth before he said, "sort your daft eye out, you c***."' 'But I actually agreed, I thought fair enough. I do need to sort it out.' Later in the video Zoe lifted up her sunglasses to reveal that one of her eyes is still well and truly drooping a couple of weeks after her latest procedure. She is suffering with a little-known side effect called ptosis which occurs when Botox treatment spreads beyond the intended injection area and effects the muscles that lifts these areas, causing the eyelid or eyebrow to sag and droop. Zoe told her followers in the latest video: 'I recently had botox, it went wrong and it's given me ptosis. This has happened to me before and it's now happened a second time. 'People are saying to me, "why would you go back to the same place?" - I did the same for my wedding, she's done me a lot of times and I trust her. 'She's fully qualified, do you think I'm going to someone on the corner of the street? Of course not. 'We don't know why it's happened again and that's that, we've just got to ride the wave.' Zoe's decision to have Botox once again comes after her sister Molly, 26, recently reflected on days of facial fillers and Botox in her Amazon docuseries. In one of the episodes Molly unearthed a viral image of her flaunting an enlarged pout and defined jawline sparked an influx of trolling including being compared to an XBOX controller. From the age of 16, Molly used makeup and facial fillers to alter her appearance and now admits her obsession to 'look like everybody else' was 'unhealthy.' Molly explained: 'You think that all the makeup and the filler make you look better but actually it makes you look ten times worse. 'I was about 16/17 when I started getting filler. It was a slippery slope. People say I looked like an XBOX controller or a Quagmire, but I don't know what that is. 'It definitely felt like something that I needed to do to look like everybody else that was on Instagram which was really unhealthy. 'I look at those pictures and I feel quite sorry for myself. It just spiralled really. I tried to think it looked good, but it really didn't and then luckily, it was reversible.'

CHRISTOPHER STEVENS reviews Race Across The World: I could win Race Across The World's £20,000 first prize - and here's how

Why not just hire a car? The rules of Race Across The World prohibit air travel, but taxis and hitch-hiking are fair game . . . so there can't be anything wrong with renting your own wheels. As contestants neared the finish line at India 's southern tip, after a trek via train, bus and tuktuk from the Great Wall of China, all of them had cash to spare. Budgets have been tighter than ever before on this series but, despite that, every one of the four couples had enough money to go by cab on the final leg. It's taken them 51 days to cover 8,700 miles, which is an average of 170 miles a day. Driving a rental, they could easily have covered the distance in half the time. And if a hire car was too expensive, why not buy a motorbike? It's just the devious way my mind works, but surely there must be a shortcut to victory. When the race was set in Canada two years ago, several pairs of competitors cadged lifts with obliging Canucks. I'd be inclined to find an amateur chauffeur and offer him a bribe: get me to the final checkpoint ahead of the pack, and you can have a quarter of the £20,000 prize money. It's an expensive way to win — but losing is more expensive. Muscle rub of the week When Iraq invaded Kuwait in 1990, we learned on Flight 149: Hostage Of War (Sky Documentaries), President George Bush was in the White House, getting a massage. That's what you call lying down on the job. None of the five duos was prepared to cheat, of course, because the real winners on this show are the ones who forge tighter bonds with each other along the way. The race's producers have done an exceptional job of picking the right participants: all of them have been likeable and interesting, and every couple has grown closer week by week. Both sets of siblings, Elizabeth and Letitia, and Brian and Melvyn, barely knew each other at the start of the trip. Thank goodness that, as it turned out, they discovered they genuinely liked each other. Might have been awkward if the adventure had simply served to remind them why they drifted apart in the first place. We've all been hoping that young lovers Fin and Sioned would get wed along the way. Sioned certainly was. When she and her boyfriend were presented with garlands at a flower market in Bengaluru, she told him hopefully, 'We can get married now.' The most touching relationship has been that of the eventual winners, mother-and-son Caroline and Tom. She obviously adores him, and he's learned to show his appreciation, finding the words to thank her in a sweet diary entry. Still, she's sensible to be wary of him first thing in the morning. Her tactic at home, she said, is to take him a cup of tea in bed and a bacon butty — and then run. Millions of parents will sympathise. It was the show's bad luck, though, that the most intriguing couple, divorcees Yin and Gaz, were eliminated halfway through the series. What would it take to bring those two back together — maybe a stint in the jungle on I'm A Celebrity next?

I'm an Emirates cabin crew supervisor - here are my 10 essential tips to get the most out of flying business class

Flying business class is a luxury that takes the stress right out of travelling, but it obviously comes at a greater cost than economy. So, is it worth it? If you can afford to, then without a doubt, yes. It turns flying from simply a necessity to get from A to B into a pleasurable and very comfortable experience to look forward to and savour. If you are going to splurge, it makes sense to get your money's worth and enjoy all the amenities because, unlike many economy services, business provides much more than just the flight. Emirates airline offers one of the world's leading business class services. Here, cabin supervisor Emma Wood gives her top tips to make sure you experience all it has to offer: 1 - MAKE USE OF THE COMPLIMENTARY CHAUFFEUR SERVICE Enjoy seamless travel from your doorstep to the airport with Emirates' complimentary Chauffeur Drive Service, included in the ticket price in most countries for Business Class customers, including the UK and Dubai. This premium car service accommodates customers within 70 miles of the airport. Make sure you book it in advance to make the most of it. Any excess mileage will be subject to an extra charge. If you'd like to travel further, or to request an infant or child seat, it is best contact your local Emirates office at least 24 hours in advance. 2 - ARRIVE UP TO FOUR HOURS BEFORE YOUR FLIGHT TO ENJOY THE LOUNGE Make sure you give yourself enough time to indulge in one of Emirates Business Class Lounges before your flight - you can access the lounge up to four hours before scheduled departure time. They offer the ultimate way to start your journey with gourmet dining with locally sourced foods, alongside a premium beverage selection. The designated quiet zones and Business Centres feature complimentary Wi-Fi, making them ideal spaces for unwinding or catching up on work, while private showers and spa treatments ensure you can reset and feel refreshed before you board. Business Class travellers departing Dubai can also visit the exclusive Moët & Chandon Champagne Lounge. Here, four of the brand's most iconic champagnes are served alongside delicately crafted canapés by Michelin-starred chefs. The lounge's elegant design and tranquil setting provides a refined pre-flight moment. 3 - BROWSE THE MENU OPTIONS AND PRE-ORDER Emirates Business Class offers an elevated onboard dining experience, featuring a diverse selection of food and beverages from sweet and savoury snacks to gourmet meals and complimentary champagne. Enhance this inflight dining experience further by pre-ordering your main course as early as 14 days and up to 24 hours before you fly. It's a simple way to guarantee your top pick, and it helps streamline the dining experience once you're in the air. For those who prefer to decide closer to take off, the full food and beverage menu is available to browse via the Emirates app or website. Whether you're craving something familiar or curious to try a regionally inspired dish, your selections are just a few taps away. 4 - ENJOY THE AWARD-WINNING WINES AND CHAMPAGNE SERVED TO YOUR SEAT A wonderfully curated selection of white and red wine is available, alongside premium spirits and an array of other beverages. In Business and First Class, Emirates has tailored its wine selections into six regions: the UK and USA, Europe, Africa, Middle East, Australasia, and Asia. This approach allows the airline to offer wines closely aligned with the taste preferences of passengers from these regions. 5 - KEEP THE COMPLIMENTARY LOUNGEWEAR AND WASH KITS One of the newer touches on board is Emirates' thoughtfully-designed Business Class loungewear. On flights over nine hours, passengers receive a matching set of ultra-soft cowl-neck top and pants, made from breathable modal fabric in a soft blue tone. It's the kind of outfit you can easily fall asleep in. The kit includes matching slippers and an eye mask, all neatly packed in a drawstring pouch. On shorter flights, slippers and an eye mask are still provided to keep things relaxed. To complement this experience, signature Bulgari amenity kits are also offered on long haul flights, containing luxury skincare products and fragrances, alongside other comfort essentials for your personal and convenience care during the journey. Customers can make use of a dental kit, earplugs, a double mirror made from wheat straw material, deodorant, tissues, and a foldaway hairbrush with a new soft black elastic hair tie. On flights over nine hours, passengers receive a matching set of ultra-soft cowl-neck top and pants 6 - ENJOY WHAT REALLY SETS BUSINESS APART FROM ECONOMY - THE BED When you're ready to switch off, your seat seamlessly converts into a fully flat bed with a mattress topper, plush blanket, and pillow, designed for optimal rest during your flight. Adjustable lighting and seating controls allow you to create the perfect sleep environment. Should you need additional bedding or assistance, the crew will be happy to help. 7 - SIT AT A BAR TO CHAT WITH FELLOW PASSENGERS AND CABIN CREW Step away from your seat and stretch your legs in the iconic Emirates onboard lounge. With its comfortable leather seating and curated premium beverage selection, it offers a welcoming environment to enjoy a speciality cocktail, savour gourmet bites, and connect with fellow travellers at 40,000 feet. 8 - ENJOY LIVE SPORTS EVENTS AT 40,000 FEET For sports fans, the onboard lounge can also stream live TV, so you don't have to miss your favourite match while in the air – whether it's the Emirates FA Cup Final or Wimbledon. Ask cabin crew to change the channel on the large TV if there's something you want to switch to. 9 - GET A POLOROID MEMENTO Something our passengers love doing is getting a few nostalgic pictures of their experience in Business Class using our onboard Polaroid camera. Don't forget to ask cabin crew if you or your family want to get a nice picture keepsake of you posing in the onboard lounge to take home. 10 - EXPLORE ICE TO PLAN YOUR FLIGHT ENTERTAINMENT INCLUDING MUSIC, GAMES, FILMS, TV SHOWS AND PODCASTS With thousands of hours of entertainment and up to 6,500 channels to choose from, Emirates' award-winning ICE system is best enjoyed with a little planning. Browse the latest films and shows before boarding and create a watchlist so you can start enjoying as soon as you're seated. ICE now also includes curated Spotify playlists and top-charting podcasts, so there are plenty of options to keep you entertained.
