The veteran rocker had previously voiced his dislike for some of Bowie's work, saying his lifetime achievement Brit Award was "wrong".
Weller said: "I like about three records of his. The rest of it's pish."
However, Weller confessed in this month's Mojo magazine that he was a "born-again" Bowie fan.
After hearing about the admission, Bowie sent Weller an old picture of him sporting a hairstyle similar to the ex-Jam frontman's, saying: "Nice one, Paul. Can I have my haircut back now?"
A source told The Sun: "Weller has had some public digs at Bowie in the past. But it takes a big man to say you called it wrong so it was good of him to say he was a reformed Bowie fan.
"Bowie appreciated it so sent him the email. But he couldn't resist a gentle poke about his hair.
"He sent a pic of himself from the 1960s on a record sleeve. Paul might be better known for the cut but Bowie wanted to point out he was there first."
