Experts have predicted that the nation will eventually run out of follically-challenged men as so many people are getting hair transplants.

The prediction comes as the number of baldies in the UK fell by more than 500,000 over the past decade with experts saying stars such as Wayne Rooney and Bradley Cooper have made hair transplants popular.

In 2012, there was an estimated 7 million men with either thinning hair or none at all and the number has now reduced to a little more than 6.4 million.

Electrical engineer Steve Graves is saving up for a hair transplant and is not surprised that the procedure is becoming more popular.

He told The Sun newspaper: "I'm not one of those guys who actually suits a bald head. Transplants seem pretty successful these days and you can get it done from between £3,000 and £7,000 which I think is worth it."
