After feeling self-conscious about his receding hairline, a young man decided to opt for a hairpiece - and his transformation has left people utterly astonished.
Kegs, 24, got in touch with hair system specialists Novo Cabelo Hair, hoping they could help banish his insecurities surrounding his tresses.
The end result has left people utterly amazed, and some say Kegs now looks like a contestant from Love Island. As for Kegs' own thoughts on his extraordinary transformation, his ear-to-ear grin speaks for itself.
In footage shared via the Novo Cabelo Hair TikTok account, captioned, "What a transformation", Kegs can initially be seen standing outside the salon, revealing the receding hairline that had been causing him so much strife.
The Novo Cabelo barbers, who go by the username @novocabelohair, explained: "This is Kegs. He is 24 and sick of his receding hairline. He also wants to break the stigma of hair systems in young guys. Let's do this!"

A barber named Rob kicked things off by shaving away parts of the hair they didn't want, covering Kegs' eyes so he couldn't "peek".
After measuring up Kegs' hairline, Rob then cut the system to fit the receding area, before prepping the skin using a scalp protector. He then applied the system using a mixture of tape and glue.
