Scott Westwood, known by his almost one million TikTok followers as Kazascoot, bravely opened up about his struggles with losing his hair to Rob Wood, owner of Novo Cabelo salons, claiming ‘I don’t recognise me in the mirror anymore’.
The aspiring actor said he had been forced to shave his head for the last few years, as his hair had become unbearably thin on the top, despite his young age.
In the video posted on TikTok, which now has over 1.8 million views, fans were shocked at the dramatic transformation, with swathes of his new admirers saying: ‘I can’t believe how handsome he looks’.

Scott said in the clip: ‘Even though I have been shaving my head for like a 10th of my life now, I still don’t recognise me without hair.
‘And whenever I think about myself in situations it is always with a full head of hair.’
To which Rob comforted him: ‘I am really excited for this. More importantly it is going to give you back that image that you want of yourself.’
According to Rob, the hair system can last between four to six months, but requires refitting every three to four weeks.
Scott continued that his hair has cost him acting jobs and a chance at love.
‘It is out of your control losing hair and a lot of people say just shave it off and embrace it, but it has had impacts.
‘I am an actor and I have lost jobs because of my hair. I’ve had women not want to date me because of my hair. I’ve had people looking at me and I’ve gone, oh I guess I’ll have to wear a hat today.
‘[The people who say embrace it]They’e the ones who haven’t had to deal with that everyday.’
