A man can't believe his eyes when he sees himself with a full head of hair: That's not me!

England - Men often suffer from hair loss. If there is also the threat of a midlife crisis, things get tight. Recently, a family man (49) sat down with toupee expert Rob Wood, who is making a name for himself in England with his company "Novo Cabelo Hair". As he turns 50 next April, the customer finally wanted a full head of hair again after decades with a semi-bald head - but not necessarily for the usual reasons.

The 49-year-old's curious transformation can be seen in a TikTok video (see below). In it, Rob Wood starts by asking him if he has been toying with the idea of a toupee for a long time.

But the guest gives other reasons: "I've had lots of conversations with my wife about it. In the end, she asked me if I would dare. And I said: 'Fine'".

After 21 years of marriage, his wife was curious to see what he would look like with a full head of hair. "But I also want to know. The children are also curious to see what I look like afterwards," says the customer.

So Rob Wood gets to work to make a curious family happy.

In the video, the application process is omitted. Instead, there is a hard cut. The customer has been sitting there the whole time without a mirror, so he doesn't yet know what he looks like.

To make things more exciting, Wood puts opaque glasses on him and then reveals the mirror. Now the father of the family is allowed to take the glasses off again - and is immediately amazed.

"Wow, that's really different. That's not me, is it?" he asks the expert. The hair artist is satisfied and gratefully accepts the praise.

The click figures for the video on TikTok are also impressive. In just five days, it has already received around 450,000 hits.

This means the toupee expert has landed two hits in one go.
