Adam Rickitt, the former star of Coronation Street, has recently undergone a major hair transformation that has left fans in awe. The actor, best known for his role as Nick Tilsley on the popular soap from 1997 to 2004, surprised everyone when he chopped off his signature long locks. But this was not just any ordinary haircut, as Adam decided to do it himself while working behind the bar at the gin bar he runs with his wife, Katy Fawcett.
In a video shared on Instagram, Katy's shocked reaction to Adam's new look was captured as he proudly showed off his chopped-off ponytail. The couple took over the bar, named Dexter & Jones, in 2019 and this impromptu haircut was just another example of their fun and playful relationship. But Adam's hair transformation didn't stop there, as he also dyed his hair platinum blonde, giving him a sharp and stylish new look.
This is not the first time Adam has surprised fans with a new hairstyle. After leaving his regular role on Hollyoaks in 2017, where he played Kyle Kelly, he grew out his hair for a short stint on the BBC soap Doctors in 2020. Fans may also remember him from his brief pop career in 1999, where he reached number 5 on the UK singles chart with his hit song "I Breathe Again". However, his music career was short-lived as he was eventually dropped from his record label.
In 2018, Adam opened up about his struggles with hair loss and how it affected his career. Instead of undergoing a transplant, he opted for non-invasive treatments to restore his hair. He explained that if he had let it continue, he would have eventually gone bald or had thinning hair, which would have limited his acting opportunities. Despite this, he continues to pursue his passion for acting and is always on the lookout for diverse and challenging roles.
Adam's latest haircut not only surprised his fans but also his agent, who was initially against him turning down acting jobs. However, Adam and Katy have found the perfect balance in their lives by taking over the bar and leaving behind the hectic and tiring schedules of the entertainment industry.
