Ghanaian barber Kelvin Akomeah Boafo, known by the nickname “Legacy The Barber,” recently shared an interesting encounter with Portuguese football legend Cristiano Ronaldo.
He revealed that he had the opportunity to give Ronaldo a haircut, but was unable to document the moment on camera.
Unlike the times he has been allowed to record his sessions with Ronaldo’s son, Legacy explained that the superstar from Al Nassr chose not to have the moment filmed, citing privacy concerns.
In light of this, Legacy expressed his ultimate aspiration: to become Cristiano Ronaldo’s personal barber.

“I have shaved Ronaldo before, but because of privacy, I couldn’t make a video. So I told him, ‘Okay, the only thing I need is to be part of the family as your personal barber,'” he told Zion Felix TV on YouTube.
“If I have been accepted by the kid and I’m getting closer to the father, I’m okay.”
Since then, Legacy The Barber has become the go-to hairstylist for Cristiano Ronaldo Jr., regularly giving him stylish trims that set him apart from other kids.
This connection with the son of a global football legend has opened doors for Legacy, including exclusive visits to Ronaldo’s luxurious mansion in Dubai and a significant boost to his social media presence.
In various posts shared online, Cristiano Jr. can be seen showing his support for Legacy The Barber, further solidifying their bond.
