What is a hair replacement system?
A hair replacement system is a cap covered in thousands of real black hairs, glued onto the skin where it remains for up to one year.
Adam was shocked
Reacting to the process, Adam said it was a strange sensation to hear scissors around his ears, adding that he was shocked and could barely speak when he saw himself.
In his words:
"I cannot explain to you how many girls have messaged me over the past few days, it's unreal. They're just jumping into my inbox and that feels good.
"I've never struggled to meet people but I feel like I've gone from chasing to being chased. I was fighting against the tide because my personality was there but my hair wasn't."

Adam has thrown away all his caps
The young man said he used to wear cap so that he wouldn't look very old but has "ceremonially" thrown them away, The Sun reports.
He said:
"I never thought I suited them anyway but it was better than walking around looking very old."
Social media reacts

Interestingly, these men's wigs come in different types too and you will mistake them for real hair as they look nothing like wigs.
It should be noted while some people go bald as a result of old age, other people's baldness have nothing with being old.
