Joe Swash opened up for the first time about having a hair transplant

He said: “I had one done years ago but for myself it was something I wanted to do, it made me feel better.

“I was on the TV so that might have had something to do with it. I just thought I  started ageing a little bit, I looked older than I am.

Joe said it made him feel better about himself

“And especially with the job that I’m doing as well, I want to try and look my best.

“I think it’s more about how you feel in yourself.”

It was reported back in 2009 that Joe, then 27, had spent £3,000 on the painstaking procedure to have his hairs transplanted from the back to the crown of his head in order to hold onto his trademark ginger locks.

Joe said he wanted to keep it a secret but it was great that people like James Nesbitt are open about it

When quizzed by Coleen Nolan if he was worried about losing work, he said: “I did get it done a few years ago so I was probably in a different mindset then.

“I tried to keep it a secret, I was really embarrassed about it, I didn’t want anyone to know and Wayne Rooney and James Nesbitt, they’re open about it and I think it’s amazing.”
