Neymar has revealed a dramatic new look on the back of Brazil's disappointment at the Copa America this summer. 

The 29-year-old emerged from a salon session lasting four hours with blond dreadlock-style plaits.

The Paris Saint-Germain forward has emerged as somewhat of a fashion icon over the course of his career to date. 

And his latest fashion statement was made a reality by Nanda Burguesinha, who has transformed the hairstyle of many celebrities back in her native Brazil.

She is reported by The Sun as saying: 'I asked him what he wanted and we came up with this different look which preserves his authenticity.

'The procedure lasted four hours and went very smoothly.' 

His latest hair-do has followed a series of other bold statements he has made with hairstyles and colours over the years.
