Complaining about the same, Mahomes in a recent interview on August 13, 2024, at the training camp talked about Kelce’s new grown hair. As uploaded by Kelce and Swift’s fan, Tayvis Updates TV, on their X account, Mahomes’ audio clip can be heard him saying, “I’ve been trying to get him to grow his hair out and all of a sudden Taylor gets him to do it.”

Yes! Kelce, who spent the entire season with very short hair on his head, is now letting a thicker thatch grow on top of his head. And as per reports, it’s all because of his singer girlfriend’s request. And guess what?

He said, “That was messed up,” showing his clear discomfort with how it played out. Even his barber Patrick Regan has been cutting Kelce’s hair for years, and even he was surprised by the hype. He pointed out that this cut, known as the “skin fade” or “bald fade,” has been around forever, done by barbers everywhere.
