"Losing my hair at such a young age has been a tough thing for me to come to terms with, I instantly feel SOOO much better and more confident that I’ve taken a step to getting back my luscious strawberry blonde locks."
The star went on to explain that he met his surgeon last year, who helped him "understand" his hair loss as well as the future of his hair, adding: "I feel so lucky to now be on my hair journey with such a talented and friendly team based here in Manchester.
"No more comb overs and baseball caps. Here’s to a future of having a cracking head of hair!" Colson concluded.

Earlier this year, the actor took part in the relaunched series of Celebrity Big Brother, coming in third place.
Speaking about returning to Corrie straight after, he told Good Morning Britain after the series wrapped: "Literally straight out the house, slept in London, had the wrap party, into a car, script straight in front of me, ready to get back on the beat.
"But today I only have one line. So you know, I can't complain today, they are easing me back in Weatherfield. The line is, 'How old are you?'. It's taken me all weekend as well."
Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 and streams on ITVX.
