Thai breakdancer seeks hair growth cash as headspins make his locks fall out
- Kantapon Rodsaart, known as T-Flow, represented Thailand at the Asian Games in Hangzhou
- He says he wears two hats to try to protect his hair and ‘the more I dance … the more my hair falls out’
A Thai national breakdancing athlete is asking someone to sponsor him for hair growth treatment, saying his team is losing their locks when they compete.
Kantapon Rodsaart, known as T-Flow, represented Thailand in early October at the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou, China. Breakdancing was added this year to the Games for the first time, and Rodsaart was one of the 66 dancers who competed.
Kantapon, 29, was speaking to Thai media about facilities and support that his team needs and brought up hair care, per an interview published by Thai PBS News.
According to the breakdancer, his hair tends to fall out because he spins on his head frequently.
“I have to wear a hat while dancing to protect my hair because it’s thin. The more I dance, especially on a rough floor, the more my hair falls out,” Kantapon said, per a translation by the Guardian newspaper.
“So, I would like to ask for support or sponsorship for hair treatment.”
