Just a Theory

So after being shunned from Hellouser's thread, you do you dawg, I am starting a new thread to post my thoughts regarding Lebron James and his hair. It would be cool if people actually looked into what I believe to be evidence and give me their opinions, without immediately discarding it as pointless.

LeBron James has had a receding hairline for quite some time now and has notoriously covered it up with his super thick headband (Miami days), but until recently he has changed his way of dealing with his hair loss. During his new sneaker promotion he obviously had a completely rejuvenated hairline and as another user pointed out, it could have easily looked so good due to spray on barber magic. Where I find his case interesting is that less than a couple weeks after his shoe promotion and sporty new hairline, there are pictures of him with almost no hair where he as been balding (the worst I have ever seen him, including his current state of hair):

Looks absolutely terrible and it is interesting how he went from sort of bad in Miami to that perfect hairline to almost nothing. Fast forward throughout the season and he has gotten more hair from that low point, and this hair isn't a barber trick because all the photos I have seen of him were in game action. Here are a couple photos from one of his most recent games against the Phoenix Suns:

His hair is now the best I have seen it in the past 3-5 years and he seems to notice as well because he has forgone the whole wearing the headband to cover up his loses and instead wears it a normal angle now. Check out this video as well:

That is some serious regrowth as his hair in the video looks very much real and natural although still thin and not quite full. It could be a transplant, but I don't see how he could have pulled this off as he has been on camera pretty much daily since those preseason photos showing terrible balding. I would also like to note that he is one of the most famous people on earth and notorious for hair loss so I can easily say he is receiving the best hair treatment there is in the world. If not probable, it is totally possible that he has access to some sort of treatment that we have yet to see/hear of.

Like said before, I tried posting about this in another thread but got shut down so I would love for some of you guys to keep an open mind and just look into his case and provide your opinion.

I don't really follow him or basketball for that matter, but from what I have learned, he is obsessed with his hair loss as well. He has the money so I would not be surprised that he has taken the expensive that will yield great results. Maybe he is using bimotoprost in a high concentration, but cost a lot but to him its peanuts. If he is getting real regrowth, then he is going on some cutting edge treatment but I doubt its anything we don't know about.

Regardless, this thread doesn't belong in this section.

I think the obvious answer is concealer. The rich have the same hairloss treatments we do.

I would lol. Just shave it brah, he's black, he is a beast, can't understand his paranoya towards hair loss.

And did I mention he's a millionaire? Well, it actually makes me happy he is seeking treatment, he could deposit some million towards research.

Yeah, most black athletes, men in general just shave it off because they mostly pull off the bald look well.

I think LJ is just especially self conscious of his image because he is not just a bball player but a notable figure in media, music etc. He is best buds with drake, Jay z and even stars in comedies. MJ on the other hand was pretty much all basketball, like he wasn't partying with rappers after nba finals or promoting headphones

There's a certain freshness you get from a hairline that money can't buy
