David had already trimmed most of his hair down to stubble, meaning there was little he could do to hide the exposed patch of skin.
His wife Victoria shared a video of the aftermath on Instagram, reacting blunty while showing the uneven crop.
She told him: 'It does not look good. I'm going to always be honest with you. It looks terrible.'
The style was a throwback to the skinhead look Beckham famously debuted during a Premier League match against Leicester City in 2000.
He's returned to it several times over the years, and recently named it his favourite look during an interview with close friend Gary Neville on The Overlap podcast.
He said: "I always like the skinhead. I always loved the skinhead, because it was easy and you didn't have to do anything with it.'
Away from the jokes and laughter, David and Victoria have been left in agony over their explosive family feud.
The Beckham brothers are in the 'Gen Z version of World War Three' after Romeo and Cruz blocked Brooklyn on social media.
The younger boys are accused of turning their backs on Brooklyn for good, and sending the family deeper into crisis.
Model Brooklyn, 26, and wife Nicola, 30, are said to be 'blindsided' after learning of the snub.

A source said: 'Blocking or unfollowing someone on Instagram is like the Gen Z version of World War Three. It's a sad new low.
'But the truth is, Brooklyn has cut out his parents David and Victoria from his life and it's the same with Romeo and Cruz.
"Even when the family have reached out to Brooklyn they have been ignored.
'He's not had contact for months and it feels clear to them that he doesn't want to make amends.'
The feud, which The Sun understands started over money, has been bubbling for several months.
Yesterday it was initially reported that Brooklyn and Nicola had unfollowed Romeo, 22, and Cruz, 20.
But those close to Brooklyn said this was not true.
A friend said: 'Brooklyn had no idea until he read about it online. It's possible Romeo and Cruz blocked them, which would make it appear as him no longer following the brothers
'He and Nicola certainly didn't unfollow them or block them — they're as confused as anyone else.
'The first they heard about it was when it was being reported on.'

Reports surface that the Beckham parents are "hurt and disappointed" that Brooklyn is "playing no part in family life." Sources claim that tensions between Brooklyn and Nicola and his parents are "definitely not beyond repair."

Brooklyn UNFOLLOWS his brothers Romeo and Cruz just 24 hours after his birthday message to Harper. Nicola quickly follows suit and also ditches the Beckham bros from her Instagram following. Romeo and Cruz are now also no longer following Brooklyn.
Shortly after Brooklyn learned of his brothers' snub, Romeo reposted Justin Bieber's new song Walking Away on his Instagram stories with the caption: 'Yup.'

A day earlier Brooklyn posted a photo of him, Nicola and sister Harper for the latter's 14th birthday.
Those close to Brooklyn denied this was partly meant as an olive branch to his parents. One friend said: 'There is too much water under the bridge.'
Brooklyn had publicly snubbed Victoria on Mother's Day this March, and failed to attend any of David's 50th birthday celebrations in May.
Brooklyn's pal insisted: 'Just because he and Nicola love Harper and want to show their affection, it doesn't mean they're trying to make amends with the family.'
A separate source said: 'Brooklyn was always very close to Romeo and Cruz. They'd stay in touch even as they grew up and started following different career paths and travelling.
'It has been very difficult for David and Victoria to watch their sons grow apart as family means everything to them.'

Premier League star reveals club has banned him from behind the scenes filming
Players are set to be banned from using Snapchat in the dressing room at Fulham according to Alex Iwobi, who says he is at risk of being fined for posting behind the scenes clips Fulham star Alex Iwobi has said that he is no longer allowed to post behind the scenes content on his social media channels following a warning from club officials that he will be fined. The former Arsenal forward has garnered a big following on Snapchat thanks to regular glimpses of what life is like for a footballer. It is unclear what specific content has prompted the Cottagers to inform him that he is no longer allowed to share footage of what happens off the pitch and in the dressing room. But there had been unconfirmed speculation from some fans that he had accidentally leaked that captain Tom Cairney had signed a new one-year contract before the club had officially confirmed it. But Iwobi, in a video clip recorded from his car, set his story straight while apologising to his fans. In the post, captioned 'No more Fulham dressing room snaps, sorry my peoples', the Nigeria international said: "For those that have been wondering why I haven't been snapping BTS in the changing room, there's one person in the media team that has been saying I haven't been capturing the right stuff. "So there's no more BTS. They also said I might get fined if I continue to do so. They are trying to ban Snap in our changing room, so yeah that's why I haven't been snapping BTS. "It's a shame man, I know you guys enjoy seeing what my team mates are like behind the scenes but I have to respect the rules." Marco Silva's side are set to face Nottingham Forest in a pre-season friendly behind closed doors in Faro, Portugal, on Saturday before fixtures against Saudi Pro League outfit Al Ittihad and Germany's Eintracht Frankfurt. They kick off their Premier League campaign with a visit to Brighton and Hove Albion on Saturday August 16 at 3pm. Fulham finished 11th last season with Iwobi scoring nine goals and providing six assists.

Dramatic detail revealed in Adrian Portelli's move to Channel Seven amid feud with The Block's Scott Cam
A glaring detail has emerged following Adrian Portelli announced his new Channel Seven renovation show. The former 'Block Billionaire', 36, revealed this week he would be co-starring in a new reality show for the network – My Reno Rules. Not only will the show be Portelli's first foray into the world of television hosting, it will also see him at the same network as former Channel Nine journalist Alex Cullen. The Today show reporter was sacked by Nine after he accepted a $50,000 gift from The Block billionaire Adrian Portelli for calling him 'McLaren Man' live on air. Now the pair will be reunited, with Cullen revealing this week that he will be making a return to the small screen on 7News. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'After everything went down [at Nine this year], Seven were one of the first on the phone to say: 'You have our support, and if you want to come back, we're a phone call away",' he told Confidential. 'I can't tell you how much that meant to me and my family,' he told the publication. 'It's not very nice being the story,' he said, adding: 'It's better telling the story.' Further, The Australian reported this week that Cullen was touted to appear on Portelli's upcoming reality show. Network sources confirmed to the publication that Seven was looking at casting the reporter on the series, although nothing has been 'locked in'. In another surprising twist, reported on Friday that Portelli's controversial rewards club company LMCT+ will be the major sponsor for the reality show. It was also reported that Portelli has donated the two homes that will feature in the debut series. It comes after Portelli and Cullen's social media exchange made national headlines and ultimately led to Cullen's departure from Nine. After putting the reward call out on social media, The Block entrepreneur then posted what appeared to be a bank transfer of $50,000 to the presenter on Instagram. The ill-advised stunt led to Cullen being suspended by Nine, and he did not appear on the show while the network investigated the payment. Nine's parting of ways with Cullen went ahead despite Portelli's claim that the money was always meant for charity. Portelli, who has spent millions of dollars snapping up houses over the last three seasons, shared a post to social media on Thursday revealing he was leaving the Channel Nine series for good. 'Bet my high school teachers never thought… I'D HAVE MY OWN TV SHOW ON Channel Seven,' he wrote alongside a promotional photo of him and Dr Chris Brown. 'The Reno games looking a little dusty. Time for a fresh coat. The gloves are off. My Reno Rules - Coming to Seven.' Seven recently announced the brand-new home renovation series, My Reno Rules, produced by MasterChef Australia creators Endemol Shine. The show will feature four teams of renovators competing on two neighbouring rundown houses in Melbourne. The teams are competing for a huge prize, with a live grand finale awarding two fully renovated and furnished properties. It comes after The Block's Scott Cam sent a warning to billionaire businessman Adrian Portelli ahead of the Nine reality juggernaut's 2026 season premiere. Cam begged Portelli not to attend this year's auction to give others a chance to own a home. 'To be honest we said to Adrian "we'd love you not to come next year, if that's all right." But you know it's up to him it's a public auction and he can do whatever he wants,' he revealed on Nova 96.9's Fitzy & Wippa with Kate Ritchie. 'He said he won't come but he may. We don't know, but we do want to give mums and dads the opportunity to have a crack at a block house. 'If Adrian comes and wants to buy the lot of them, well, that rules them out,' Scott said. 'Hopefully we get, a few buyer advocates that come and are representing families. So hopefully they turn up and have a bit of a crack this year.' During the 2024 finale of The Block, Portelli made history by purchasing all five of the properties for a huge $15million. He ensured Maddy and Charlotte Harry became the youngest-ever winners when he bought their home for $3.5million. Portelli's company, LMCT+, has frequently raffled off properties from The Block, including last year's $5million purchase of Steph and Gian's winning home.
