One Direction get their very own hair doubles... to stand in just for shots from behind


They say Samson’s strength was in his hair and it’s much the same for boybands.

So it’s no surprise that One Direction have got themselves a set of hair doubles to stand in for them in those all-important behind shots.

Three lucky lads with luscious locks, who are meant to represent Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik and Niall Horan were spotted milling about in Miami following a day of filming with the band.

And although from the front the lads looked nothing like their pop star counterparts, from the back their styled locks looked almost spot on.

But just in case anyone was confused about who was who, the hair-a-like for Zayn was seen with a name badge on his trousers.

While the stand-in’s hair was spot on his body shape was rather different, looking much more built than the real Zayn.

Clearly enjoying the life of a boyband for the day the men were seen picking up a bite to eat and taking pictures of the waiting fans.

Unfortunately the hordes of girls standing in the rain didn’t look too taken with the hair on show.

Perhaps it might have been a different story if they had caught a glimpse of Harry Styles’ stand-in, as his curly haired mop is without a doubt the most famous in the band.

Meanwhile as their stand-ins were on hand all day for their head shots, the actual group were spotted leaving a recording studio after a long day’s work.

The caring boys made sure to stop and waves to their fans who had no doubt been waiting all day to catch a glimpse of them.

Showing off their impressive tans after spending a day on a luxury yacht the group all looked in high spirits.

Dressed down in casual wear the boys seemed relaxed and despite a long day working all of their hair was still in perfect place, although Zayn decided to keep his covered up with black cap.

Earlier in the week the group caused a stir when Harry, Niall and Zayn were all more than happy to wander around shirtless.

With a couple of days off before their concerts in the Florida city, the stars made the most of the warm weather and decided to hire their own 90ft custom-built boat.

While they are currently in Miami as the tour is in the early stage of its North American leg, they are also taking their time to record fresh material for their hotly anticipated third studio album - due for release later this year.

The band kicked off the North American leg of their Take Me Home tour at the weekend after having a week off to relax with their friends and family.
