Justin Bieber scrutinized over 'balding' snaps as fans turn on him following scathing comments about wife Hailey
After receiving severe backlash for cruelly berating wife Hailey Bieber after she appeared on the cover of Vogue, Justin Bieber is now under scrutiny - this time for his hairline. The popstar was allegedly snapped in a recent picture at the beach, showing what appeared to be a bald spot on the 31-year-old's head - which sparked heated discussion on X, formerly known as Twitter. While some Gen Z users were shocked that the Baby singer - known as a teen for his luscious locks and swooping fringe - seems to be balding, many other users defended his apparent hair loss. 'Justin Bieber balding at 31 years is insane,' the astonished user wrote, alongside pictures of the artist. 'Crazy how time flies - feels like Baby just dropped and now he's balding at 31!' another shared. One critic added: 'Not good. Biebs used to have a full head of hair!!!' However, some committed fans leapt to his defense, writing: 'Usually it's like 26. He made it longer than most.' 'Teenagers discovering that grown adults experience body changes as they age will never not be funny to me,' added another. After receiving severe backlash for cruelly berating wife Hailey Bieber after she appeared on the cover of Vogue, Justin Bieber is now under scrutiny - this time for his hairline Another agreed, writing: 'Balding at 31 is probably the most normal thing in the history of humanity.' The photos are being recirculated on social media as public opinion of Justin appears to shift in light of his recent comments. The star sparked the huge frenzy earlier in the week when he posted a snap of Hailey's Vogue cover to Instagram, admitting he cruelly told her she would never achieve her dream of appearing on the cover during an argument. 'Yo this reminds me when Hailey and I got into a huge fight, I told hails that she would never be on the cover of vogue, yikes I know, so mean, For some reason because I felt so disrespected I thought I gotta get even,' he wrote in the now-edited caption. Bieber continued: 'Think as we mature we realize that we're not helping anything by getting even, we're honestly just prolonging what we really want which is intimacy and connection.' He concluded his post by writing a message directly to Hailey, which read: 'So baby you already know but forgive me for saying you wouldn't get a Vogue cover cuz clearly i was sadly mistaken.' Many saw Bieber's caption as a backhanded compliment and something 'so unnecessary' to share with his followers. He went on to delete the caption, with many of his followers failed to see the funny side, and the comments section was flooded with criticism. Bieber was known for his luscious locks and sweeping side fringe as a teenager (pictured with Cody Simpson in 2014) While some Gen Z users were shocked that the Baby singer - known as a teen for his luscious locks and swooping fringe - seems to be balding, many other users defended his apparent hair loss Following the backlash, Bieber appeared to delete the caption from his post, replacing it with a shrugging emoji. Hailey welcomed her only child with Bieber in August 2024, but experienced some 'scary' complications during the birth. Despite prepping for nine months in which she exercised, worked on her pelvic floor and felt 'physically stronger' than ever before, the model found herself going through a very tough labor, with the stunner admitting in a candid new interview that giving birth was 'the hardest thing I've ever done'. Speaking for the first time about the birth, the 28-year-old told Vogue: 'That s**t was so crazy. That was not fun. They broke my water. I went into labor and I labored for a few hours. No epidural, nothing.' The mom-of-one began leaking amniotic fluid at 39 weeks and had to be induced, with the star given medication to bring on contractions while a special balloon was placed inside her uterus to help dilate her. However, while she eventually welcomed her boy after 18 hours, her troubles continued as she then experienced a postpartum hemorrhage, with Bieber sadly admitting that the thought had crossed her mind that she wouldn't survive the ordeal. On the fact that death could be a result of this complication if not treated quickly, which she told was 'a little bit scary.' She also admitted she's had to adjust to her postpartum figure, admitting that she had to 'give herself some grace' over her body not 'bouncing back'. Fans have expressed concern for the couple due to their stony-faced public appearances, and Baldwin's famous friends have allegedly urged her to leave the singer due to his 'unacceptable' behavior. Addressing the difficulty, she shared: 'Being postpartum is the most sensitive time I've ever gone through in my life, and learning a new version of myself is very difficult… And to be doing that all the while going on the internet every day and people being like, 'They're getting divorced' and 'They're this' and 'They're not happy': It is such a mindf**k. I cannot even begin to explain it. It's a crazy life to live.'

Identical triplets who went bald at the same time undergo dramatic hair transformation thanks to 'the only treatment that really works'
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 risky 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. 'When I looked back at my photos on my camera roll, I didn't like how I looked. I just started deleting them all,' he said, adding that he didn't pursue a transplant until he knew his brothers agreed to do it too. 'Eliot took a bit more convincing, but as soon as he got to the clinic, he was fully on board,' he said. They simultaneously underwent nine hours of surgery at HQ Hair Transplants in Cardiff, costing £5,000 each. Their investment comes after one man told of his painstaking ordeal to restore his hair, trying 'every snake oil solution out there with promises of a miracle'. I tried every 'snake oil' treatment on the market. I can tell you there is only one thing that works After a 20 year quest using supplements, shampoos and ointments, David Allen found the only effective solution was a hair transplant. 'The change was undeniable,' he wrote. 'I looked 10 years younger, my energy levels soared and I just couldn't believe how good it made me feel.' The Gregory brothers' procedures began with precise measurements to ensure their finished hairlines would be exactly the same. Julian recalled feeling scared just before undergoing the procedure. 'I remember just staring in the mirror and having my head shaved off,' he said. 'Not knowing what I was going to look like afterwards was terrifying.' 'But the team were really good and we are all ecstatic with the results.' However, the trio still have to wait six months to see what their final head of hair looks like. Hair transplants take hair follicles from elsewhere on the body—most commonly the back of the head or neck—and transfer them to the scalp. Once there the follicles will take a few months to settle into their new location before providing a fresh set of locks. The triplets said they 'can't wait' to see their new look when they plan to reunite in a year's time on a shared trip to Mexico. 'We should have nearly identical hairlines by then,' Julian said. 'We can't wait to feel more identical and to get our confidence back.' The former models who previously graced the pages of GQ and Esquire magazines also had a number of TV appearances where they played the roles of twins and triplets. This included a mind-controlling boy band in BBC's MI High, lead roles in CBBC's Kerching and alongside Kiera Knightley in the movie Innocent Lies. A hair transplant in the UK can cost anywhere between £1,000 and £30,000, depending on the extent of hair loss, the type of procedure, and the quality of the clinic and its team. But an increasing number of men are opting to go overseas for the procedure in places like Turkey lured by cheaper prices that are often sold as part of a packaged holiday. However, there are cases where British men have ended up with scars and bald spots after undergoing a budget hair transplant overseas.

Has Waleed Aly had a hair transplant? The Project host drops major hint that he's undergone the cosmetic procedure in Turkey while on air
Aussies are all wondering whether Waleed Aly has gotten a hair transplant after the TV host dropped a big hint on The Project. Waleed, 46, who has been a co-host on the Channel 10 program for over ten years, joined the panel on Tuesday as they discussed the ever-growing number of Australian men flying to Turkey to get hair transplants. The procedure, which see healthy hair follicles moved from one part of the scalp to the other, is significantly cheaper in Turkey and comes with hotel packages, lifts to and from the airport and perks that make the clients 'feel like a king'. This is why Turkey has seen a 70 percent increase in demand for hair transplants from Australian men, The Project reported on Tuesday. In response to the statistics, Waleed along with Sarah Harris, Sam Taunton and Kate Langbroek discussed the growing popularity of the procedure and why balding was not an uncommon thing amongst men. 'I just think it's underestimated for men if they lose their hair,' Kate said. 'And you two have got hair privilege,' she added, pointing to Waleed and Sam. However, Waleed made a subtle comment that implied he had undergone the hair transplant procedure himself. 'All I'll say is this, Istanbul is one of my favourite cities in the world,' he said. Waleed did not elaborate before the commercial break - nor clarified if he was joking - but the telling comment drew interest to his hairline. Over the years, it has remained largely unchanged, with Waleed sporting a similarly thick and luscious head of hair much like he had 20 years ago. Waleed made headlines in February after he appeared in a bizarre comedy skit with comedian Sam during an episode of The Project. The pair were seen 'taking a bath' together in the cringey segment which mortified co-host Sarah Harris. 'I vomited in my mouth a little bit,' she said after watching the playback which featured Waleed and Sam sitting at either end of an elegant tub filled with bubbles. Over the years, it has remained largely unchanged. Pictured in 2016 However, the twisted skit was actually an AI generated 'deep fake' video. The clip was part of a report that covered a recent AI generated deep fake video in which President Trump can be seen sucking the toes of Elon Musk. Sarah told viewers that the clip was played on a loop on public display monitors at the US Department of Housing. The humorous video of President Trump and Musk included the caption, 'Love live the Real King'. After viewing the disturbing video of the US President and the head of Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) Sam joked: 'So it's not normal when your boss asks you to suck his toes.' Later in the segment Project panelist Kate commented that the US video was an attempt to mock President Trump. 'You know what they are trying to do - they're trying to psyche out Trump by saying that Elon is the boss - the real King,' she said. Meanwhile, Sarah introduced the AI deep fake of Sam and Waleed. 'You should have seen the weird AI loop we had in our offices at lunch time.' 'I think some people's dreams came true watching that,' Sam joked after watching the playback of himself and Waleed playing in the bath water. 'When did we do that it was 8.30 when we did that,' he quipped. Kate then added: 'Is there room for three.'
