Shafeek Hashim, 36, a travel vlogger from Alappuzha in Kerala with about 28,000 YouTube subscribers, offered his bald head as ad space in a Facebook post that went viral. A hair transplant clinic from Kochi took it: a tattoo sticker with the clinic’s logo for three months, visible in at least three of his videos, for 50,000 rupees, about $575. Reported by Onmanorama on 8 February 2025 and by Gulf News in July 2025. There is no project website; we list the first press report. No follow-up after the contract is documented.
