Based on recent observations, it looks like Beckham has had those very unnatural temple closures carried out in places like Turkey which to be screams transplant. Sounds like he probably didn't do his research and jumped in.
I was surprised looking at those earlier pics, at how far gone his Crown was. He was headed for significant baldness. I do wonder what his true state now is without concealer. I guess some pics will emerge soon with his buzzed look how his scalp is looking all over.
