David Beckham has revealed a new, shorter buzz cut after a clipper malfunction left a noticeable bald patch during a self-styled haircut. The 50-year-old football icon attempted the look himself at home, opting to revisit the close-cropped style he famously wore in 2000.
The clippers reportedly lost their guard mid-trim, causing an uneven strip to form at the top of Beckham’s head.
He later shared a selfie on Instagram captioned, “UPDATE The best I can do with the situation. @victoriabeckham still awful???”
His wife Victoria posted her own reaction to the incident, initially saying, “It does not look good,” but later added, “I’m into it!!!”
Beckham has long been known for his evolving hairstyles, from mohawks to sleek cuts. During a recent interview with Gary Neville, he described the buzz cut as his favourite: “I always loved the skinhead, because it was easy and you didn’t have to do anything with it.”
Recently, Beckham also offered a dose of domestic delight, sharing candid home videos that include a garden carrot mishap.
During a clip filmed in the Beckhams’ Cotswolds garden, 50‑year‑old David digs enthusiastically for a fresh carrot only to reveal a tiny, twisty root. Victoria, capturing the moment, laughs and calls it “so disappointing” and “embarrassing.”
