In one, James can be seen holding his hair back as he checked out the white line drawn on his forehead to highlight where the new strands of hair would go.

James is the latest male celebrity to go public with his hair transplant, following in the footsteps of Dancing on Ice star Jake Quickenden and singer Gareth Gates.

Jake, 29, revealed in August last year that he had undergone a £5K hair transplant to feel confident on his wedding day to fiancee Danielle Fogarty.

He told Loose Women: "I didn’t want to walk down the aisle feeling less confident so one of the main reasons was so I could feel as confident as she can.”

In October, Pop Idol star Gareth, 33, also revealed exclusively to The Sun he had had a hair transplant.

Towie's James Lock tells Yazmin Oukhellou he's never considered marrying anyone before

He said: "As a younger pop star, I was always well known for my hair.

“I had a big deal with the hair company Wella and I was known for having this great hair.

“However, as I’ve got slightly older, my hair is starting to thin a bit.

“I’ve always wanted long hair, but I’ll be happy with dense, thick hair with a better hairline — maybe I’ll even go back to my spiky days.”
