Former deputy editor of Fantastic Man once revealed that Beckham only made subtle changes to the haircut as it was sometimes shorter on the sides, adding, "Sometimes it's quiff-ier." He further stated:
"[It's] what it means to be him post-football: Now he's in control of what he does. He's not in conflict with any manager or any team."

In early 2018, Beckham was suspected to have undergone a hair transplant procedure as he was pictured wearing hats numerous times. After his headwear period, his hair was reportedly straighter.
The former Manchester United star's spokesman was asked about the procedure, and the spokesperson said that it "was a matter of privacy whether it's false or true."
