Singer Akon has for the longest time been struggling with a receding hairline.
While the challenge can be quite a hard one to deal with for people without means, the same can be as easy as ABCD for moneyed people such as Akon.
Singer Akon recently disclosed that he had to travel all the way to Turkey for a hair transplant procedure.
The musician, in a recent podcast interview with Bootleg Kev said he was forced to get the transplant in Turkey because of its well-priced surgical procedures.
Akon also noted that he would have paid more if he did the procedure in US therefore his decision to get it done in Turkey, where he paid KSh 750,000 only.
According to the musician, a standard hair transplant procedure in the US would have set him back with a whopping KSh 5,000,000.

“It’s so affordable it’s ridiculous. For what I did, it would’ve cost me 50 grand in America. I paid what, $7,500. Here they over charging, anything related to healthcare or any kind of medical procedure, America is, I mean they tag on ten times. Man, I work hard for this money, I don’t care,”Akon said.
During the interview, the singer admitted that he is happy with the result despite the painful procedure.

”I went to Turkey and got a procedure. Cause don’t forget in the beginning, my whole front was loose. It was real thin. The painful part is the beginning when they gotta numb you up. That numbing ain’t no joke. They stick a needle like this big and just [poke] you non-stop…I told the n*gga, I said ‘Tory you shoulda came to my man.” he added.
Akon may be looking good in his new hairstyle but the same did not impress his fans who feel he looks like a ‘lego’.
Countless people took to social media to criticise Akon’s hair transplant with many even making memes about it.
A throng also urged him to go and his money back since the specialists did not do a splendid job.
