IS SCOTTISH FOOTBALL'S MOST FAMOUS MULLET SET FOR A COMEBACK?
- Former Scotland captain Colin Hendry has had a hair transplant after suffering a receding hairline
In his footballing heyday, he was known for his passion and commitment – and his glorious mullet.
But now Scotland legend Colin Hendry has had a hair transplant in a bid to recapture at least some of his trademark look.
The former Rangers and Blackburn Rovers defender was famed for his flowing locks but his hairline has been receding in recent years and he said the thought of going completely bald was ‘doing him in’.
The 58-year-old, who captained Scotland at the 1998 World Cup, had hair restoration treatment at Dr Mani Mittal’s clinic in London last month and his hair is starting to grow again.
He told talkSPORT: ‘I’ve had a hair transplant and it’s brilliant. It’s going the way it should be going. Mani Mittal, a good pal of mine in London, did it.
It was doing me in. I’ve had a head of hair for as long as I can remember and what a mullet that was.
‘The mullet is not coming back but I will be happy with a bit of hair. The hair is on its way back but it takes a bit of time, it’s a long-drawn thing.’
Hendry shocked fans when he appeared at a Rangers legends match last year without his familiar locks.
In a post on social media, Dr Mittal said: ‘Many patients who are in the public eye prefer strict discretion but pleased this gentleman is happy to go public and help many others.
‘Premier League winner with Blackburn Rovers and Scotland captain Colin Hendry.’
Hendry earned 51 international caps for Scotland between 1993 and 2001.
