LeBron James is the king of Cleveland and maybe even the NBA yet that doesn’t stop him from receiving questions and jokes about unstable relationship with his hairline. At time, it appears that LeBron has a normal full head of hair yet other times it looks like he’s a 45-year-old man who is stressed and dealing with balding and a receding hairline. Regardless to what it is, his personals barber Nick Castemanos is tired of being asked over and over about LeBron hair.
“There is no dye. No additives. No preservatives,” Castemanos told Yahoo Sports.
“Everyone thinks he’s dying his hair using [temporary hair colorings] Bigen or Black Ice. It’s all his hair. They still don’t believe me. I get Bigen comments all the time.
“I’ve become numb to it. It used to bother me. It’s not easy to hear that.”
Castemanos says of all his customers LeBron is the most challenging and meticulous with his hair and beard.
“LeBron is very tedious about how his hair is cut. The beard is the No. 1 thing. He leaves the top up to me. I leave him less bald. He’s my guy. He’s my hardest haircut. He has good hair. You have to cut it right. He just has a few fat patches around the chin that you have to take your time with. You have to have patience. It usually takes about 50 minutes.”
Castemanos was hesitant but decided to pack his things up, leave Miami to become LeBron’s personal barber after the offer was extended to him. When asked about his compensation or arrangements with LeBron, Castemanos would only share that those arrangements were private.
