Who Is Ouzy See and Why Are People Talking About His Hair?

Professionally, Ouzy See plays forward for Edinburgh FC. However, he became a household name in 2023 when he appeared on season 10 of the popular reality dating series Love Island. See made his entrance in Casa Amor in week four, whereupon he quickly coupled up with Ella T and moved into the villa.

As is often the case on Love Island, the course of true love never runs smooth, and after leaving Ella T to instead couple up with Kady, See wound up in the bottom three couples in week seven, whereupon he was dumped from the island.

During his brief but memorable appearance on the show, much as said about his signature hairstyle which featured short dreadlocks styled towards his forehead. It wasn’t until 2025, however, and the dumping of See’s ex, Sophie Lee, from the latest season of Love Island that the public became aware of See’s huge hair transformation.

When Elithair posted a TikTok remarking on Lee’s exit from the villa and See’s experiences at our clinic, fans were amazed to learn about the extent of the footballer’s dramatic hair loss and keen to see the results of his hair transplant.

Ouzy See’s Hair Transplant: A Case Study in Success

Ouzy See presented at the Elit Klinik with severe hair loss early in 2024. As part of his procedure, he received 5,500 grafts which were then transplanted into the thinning areas of his scalp using the DHI (Direct Hair Implantation Method). This method has become the gold standard in the industry, due to its minimal invasiveness and low level of scarring.

5,500 is within the higher range of grafts typically needed for a hair transplant, but this number was very much required to address the extent of See’s hair loss. When it comes to patients like See, who had been suffering from genetic hair loss, a hair transplant really is the only reliable long-term solution for hair restoration.

For those wondering what the procedure involves, See walked fans and those considering a hair transplant through the process following his treatment. He breaks down his three-day experience at Elit Klinik, noting that there wasn’t much pain involved.

What Can We Learn from Ouzy See’s Example?

Since news broke of See's procedure, commenters have been quick to express regret over previously making fun of his unusual hairstyle during his appearance on Love Island. Additionally, many have celebrated Ouzy's decision to take control of his hair loss and share his experience with the public.

Ouzy See is now another example among many of people in the public eye breaking the stigma about hair loss and hair loss solutions. From the positive response, we can glean that widespread attitudes towards this struggle is changing. People are becoming increasingly aware of the toll hair loss can take on a person's confidence, and are accepting of hair transplants as a means of restoring both hairlines and self-esteem.

Could a Hair Transplant Be Right for You?

If you've been struggling with thinning hair, you could be wondering if a hair transplant is the right choice for you. If you're uncertain, we recommend speaking to your doctor. Your GP will be able to determine the underlying cause of your hair loss, which will then allow you to find the most suitable treatment.

Hair transplantation surgery is really only recommended for those suffering from androgenetic alopecia. If you suffer from this form of alopecia, you should be eligible for a hair transplant provided your hair loss is no longer active and that you have sufficient available hair in your donor area (typically the back of your head).
