MS Dhoni’s haircuts over the years

MS Dhoni has always been known for his haircuts. In 2006, former Pakistani president Pervez Musharraf was so impressed with Dhoni’s hairstyle that he asked MSD not to get a haircut.

He was originally known for long hair, which inspired millions of youngsters around the country to boast similar haircuts. During the 2007 T20 World Cup, he maintained a similar hairstyle. His long hair was gone in the next couple of years. In fact, in 2009, he was seen in a buzz cut. He was nearly bald after winning the 2011 ODI World Cup.

He donned a “Mohawk” style during the 2013 IPL and a “V Hawk” in 2018. For quite some time, Dhoni had a salt-and-pepper look until October 3 when we saw him in the brand new look.
