David Luiz's shocking appearance

But behind that flashy image is a silent battle that the former Chelsea star has faced for many years.

The online community was recently surprised when images of David Luiz in a Fortaleza shirt went viral at a dizzying speed. The former Chelsea and Arsenal midfielder's appearance is now a far cry from the image fans were used to - a distinct bald spot on the top of his head, replacing his once iconic thick, wavy hair.

At the age of 38, Luiz decided to go public about this personal health issue, ending speculation and expressing comfort with the natural changes of his body.

David Luiz's curly hair is gone.

In a new video posted with his personal barber, David Luiz frankly shared: "Over the years, I have lost some hair. I have been dealing with hair loss for many years."

The Brazilian centre-back revealed that the cap has become his constant companion. "I used to be a hat person, but now that my hair is thinner, it's harder to keep my hair in full curls like before. It's actually much easier to wear a hat and style my hair like that," he said.

In the attention-grabbing video, Luiz takes off his signature hat, revealing a significant amount of thinning hair on top of his head. But what's amazing is how the barber dramatically transformed the former player's appearance.

The final result surprised even Luiz himself: "Where's the bald spot?", he happily exclaimed when looking at his new look in the mirror - youthful and confident like when he was wearing a Chelsea shirt.

David Luiz, who had two successful spells at Chelsea (2011-2014 and 2016-2019), is now continuing his career in his native Brazil. After leaving Arsenal in 2021, he played for Flamengo before moving to Fortaleza earlier this year.

David Luiz looks different now.

At 38, Luiz has still shown his worth, having played in all five of Fortaleza’s matches in the Brazilian national championship this season. Although the team is currently ranked 14th with 5 points after 5 matches, Luiz’s spirit and experience are still a great inspiration for his younger teammates.

David Luiz’s long, curly hair has become such a cultural icon in football that fans have worn wigs in homage to him. For many players, this may be just a part of their career, but for Luiz, it’s a personal brand that’s synonymous with his name.

"The important thing is that I feel comfortable with myself," Luiz shared. "I'm still the David Luiz that people know, no matter what my hair is like."

David Luiz’s openness about his hair loss is not only a personal story, but also a powerful message about self-confidence and acceptance of natural body changes. In a sports environment where image and appearance are always paramount, Luiz’s candor is a breath of fresh air.

With a new style and a relaxed spirit, David Luiz is continuing to prove that at the age of 38, he still has a lot to contribute to Brazilian football, both on the field and off.
