I’m not sure how people here are claiming “genetics” when this is clearly hair implants. Implants are fairly cheap overseas and even cheaper in the States when you’re a multimillionaire (relative to differential in income vs an average person).
People forget that looking good, investing in yourself, staying in shape and cosmetic procedures are a part of their jobs as actors and they’ll do it just like anybody else doing their jobs.
People overestimate genetics in most cases, when the answer is really simple: maintenance.
I know! He's fuckin Scottish. Genetics? He should look like a slice of boiled spam that fell down the back of my gran's couch in 1987
LOL - I didn’t mean to imply that but now that you’ve said it, yeah… that makes sense.
You have thr balding gene, don't you?
Some people don't go bald with age, not really. Is it so hard to believe? None of my grandparents or parents have had any bald spots, grandma from mom's side having a thic-ass braid halfway down her back.
He's aged pretty well, but not amazingly. Also, people underestimate how much hair is needed to look like that with good products. Arguably he might have thinner hair than he did when he was in Trainspotting, but it certainly doesn't look it the way he wears it
But probably you guys are just overestimating how much hair an average person drops in 20 years
I actually have a pretty thick head of hair for my age.
The only reason we’re commenting on his hair is because his hair seems to have grown in texture and thickness with time and it’s apparent that it’s grafted looking at just the texture alone.
Genetics while playing a great role in anatomy does not reverse the effects of aging and taking care of yourself via cosmetic procedure because it’s part of your job along with a healthy lifestyle goes a long way to put off genetic health risks.
If I look at an image of me in the army with a buzzcut and myself in the mirror now, the hair definitely looks thicker now. I don't know how one's hair "grows in texture" though, you'll have to brief me on that.
Most of what I think you're seeing is hairstyle and product, not transplants. But I wouldn't put money on it.
By grown in texture I meant that the volume of hair seems fuller. While that can be product/hairstyle, another giveaway is that his hairline def looks like it recedes with age. Picture on the left is the classic, my hairline is receding and I’ve got longer hair to compensate for it. The picture on the right has a hard stop on the hairline and hair growing out exactly where the hairline “stopped” receding.
Got a ton of balding men around me, and grafting is a popular topic of conversation. 🙂
I'll have to trust your expertise, I guess. The hairline not being straight is suspect, but also, it might be perspective or something.
I does look kinda too straight in the second picture now that you mention it, though.
