L-R: The Legacy Barber and Cristiano Ronaldo
Ghanaian barber Kelvin Akomeah Boafo, popularly known as “Legacy The Barber,” has revealed that he once gave a haircut to Portuguese football icon Cristiano Ronaldo but was unable to capture the moment on video.
Unlike his haircut sessions with Ronaldo’s son, where he is allowed to record, Legacy explained that the Al Nassr superstar declined to make a video due to privacy concerns.
In response, Legacy shared his biggest wish with Ronaldo to become the football legend’s personal barber.
“I have shaved Ronaldo before, but because of privacy, I couldn’t make a video. So I told him, ‘Okay, the only thing I need is to be part of the family as your personal barber,'” he told Zion Felix TV on YouTube.
“If I have been accepted by the kid and I’m getting closer to the father, I’m okay.”
The Ghanaian barber has since become the preferred hairstylist for Cristiano Jr., often giving him trims that make him stand out among his peers.
Being the barber of the son of a global football icon has brought Legacy The Barber numerous benefits, including access to Ronaldo’s Dubai mansion and a massive social media following.
In several videos shared on his social media accounts, Cristiano Jr. is seen endorsing Legacy The Barber.
