John Cena Undergoes Hair Transplant Following Fan Taunts

John Cena, the 48-year-old WWE icon, underwent a hair transplant in November 2024 after persistent fan taunts about his thinning hair, which he says 'completely changed the course of my life.' Cena revealed that audience signs mocking his baldness pushed him to explore hair restoration options, breaking the stigma around male pattern baldness that affects a majority of men. Following the transplant, he adopted a comprehensive hair care regimen including red-light therapy, minoxidil, vitamins, shampoo, and conditioner to maintain results. Red-light therapy, a scientifically supported, non-invasive treatment that stimulates hair follicle growth, plays a key role in his routine and is considered safe and compatible with other treatments. Cena expressed regret that societal shame delayed his decision for a decade and highlighted how addressing hair loss has positively impacted both his personal confidence and acting career. As he prepares for his WWE retirement tour and transition to acting, Cena embraces the openness about hair loss and treatment, encouraging others to overcome stigma.
