First Dates’ Fred Sirieix has maintained a distinctive buzzcut for much of his career. However, after switching his hairstyle to a neat crew cut a few years ago, many suspected the maître d’ had taken the plunge and gotten a hair restoration surgery.
But are the rumours about Fred Siriex’s hair transplant true, and what did the TV star have to say about it? Let’s find out.
Who Is Fred Sirieix?
Fred Sirieix is a reality TV star who is best known for starring as the maître d’hôtel in Channel 4’s First Dates. Apart from that, Fred has also appeared on other TV shows, including CBBC’s Step Up to the Plate, BBC’s Million Pound Menu, Strictly Come Dancing, and I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!
Has Fred Sirieix Had A Hair Transplant?
Sirieix dismissed rumours of a hair transplant in 2023, explaining the change was merely the result of him growing his hair out.
Asked about the funniest yet untrue thing he’s read about himself, the restaurant host reportedly replied:
“I’ll tell you what it is. It’s that everybody thinks I’ve got a toupée or I went to Turkey to get new hair. I just grew it!”
A closer look at Sirieix’s scalp photos also indicates that this is indeed the case since the reality TV star’s hairline and overall density haven’t changed.
He does not have a receding hairline, which is typically seen in androgenetic alopecia — the most common cause of hair loss among men. In addition, he has never displayed thinning or miniaturization of his frontal hair. Therefore, he wouldn’t need to have a hair transplant.
