David Beckham is widely recognized for his exceptional football abilities but if there is one thing he is equally good at, then it has to be his haircut selections. Over the last 25 years, there are very few male celebrities who can claim to have had an influential impact on a generation’s hairstyle. From his early buzzcut to the sleek sweep, the Inter Miami owner has left his grooming impact periodically.
Earlier today, Beckham’s son Romeo took to Instagram stories to share a wholesome photograph. In the image, the 20-year-old Brentford FC player is seen sporting an iconic haircut that was popularised by his father nearly two decades ago.

Back in the year 2000, David Beckham made a statement by sporting a buzz cut. For someone with a babyface like his, this hairstyle was surely an unconventional choice. The buzzcut was a statement decision as it changed Beckham’s image from a youthful and stylish young footballer into a serious and fashionable icon of the soccer world. The buzz cut massively helped David as it helped him break the one-dimensional babyface image. The haircut was a melange of squeaky-speaking metrosexual footballer with an alluring and edgy vibe all at the same time.
Romeo Beckham earlier today took to Instagram to show his latest cut. The hairstyle as you guessed was the buzzcut which he presented as an ode to his father’s iconic 2000 style. In the story, the 20-year-old footballer thanked his hair stylist for helping him “bring back dads buzz”.
A few mins later, David Beckham reposted Romeo’s story with a caption and an image. The Inter Miami owner cheekily put up his own photo with the buzz cut next to Romeo’s face along with the caption “Looking good”! Interestingly, this is not the first time Romeo Beckham had a buzzcut in recent memory.
