"I love what you did with your hair," Ronaldo to his wax figure, probably. (Getty Images)Real Madrid soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo never seems to amaze us on the pitch, and off the pitch. So it doesn't come as much of a surprise when ESPNFC on Wednesday reported that the Portuguese forward sends his hairstylist to a Madrid wax museum on a monthly basis to make sure his hair is perfect.
I mean, look at the guy. Ronaldo looks like the type of player that is extremely obsessed with his persona -- to the point where it wouldn't surprise me if he had a portrait of himself somewhere in his mansion.
I mean, if you have a wax figure of yourself at a museum, you better make sure he's well-groomed.

Ronaldo's figure has been displayed at the Museo de Cera in Madrid since 2013. Gonzalo Presa, the former director of communications at the museum, revealed that unlike the other figures, Ronaldo's hair is not a wig. It comes from India.
You can hear more of Presa's Spanish interview on Ronaldo's wax figure (if you're into that kind of thing) here. This was the money quote from that Radio Barcelona interview:
"Cristiano told us to be sure his figure was perfect," Gonzalo Presa said, per the Cadena Ser Catalunya. "He sent his own hairstylist to brush his figure once a month. Cristiano's hair is natural. It is not a wig and it comes from India."
