Love Island star Connor Durman was hardly recognisable in before and after photos posted online that documented his recent hair transplant process. 

The 28-year-old revealed he invested in the procedure to hopefully ward off male pattern baldness in the future amid his receding insecurities. 

Admitting he had toyed with the idea for a little while before taking the ‘plunge’, the coffee bean salesman shared an open and honest reflection on his Instagram underneath the shocking images. 

Connor was seen pointing at his head after shearing his brown tendrils off as the caption read: ‘I’ve been conscious of my hairline for a while, finally took the plunge and went for it. 

‘I honestly can’t thank @now.hairtime enough. 

‘They made the process so much easier than I could have imagined. Can’t wait to see the results!’

Unveiling the entire process, the gallery of images showed the star –  that coupled up with Rochelle Humes’ sister Sophie Piper on the show – completely bald with lines marking where his new hairline would be.

The final snap was of the beaming reality star as he pointed to his hairless head while sitting on a chair in athletic shorts in front of the hair transplant company’s logo. 

Before losing his locks, Connor wore his signature brown short hair swept to one side and brushed forward.

Fans offered up words of support under the transparent message with one writing: ‘Truly game over for each & every single one of us once this sort gets his transplant fair play son buzzing for ya [sic]’. 

Another commented: ‘That’s awesome!’ followed by clapping emojis. 

He entered the Love Island villa in 2020 on day one of the series’s first-ever winter version. 

Connor had no problem finding love as he matched with Sophie and the pair continued their budding romance for a number of months following the departure of both individuals from the much-loved fixture. 

Despite hatching plans to live together, their relationship broke down during early lockdown days and a source revealed to The Sun that things ‘fizzled just out’. 

The insider said: ‘They never even went official.

‘It just didn’t have a chance to get started because of lockdown and they both agreed it was better to just stay friends.’
