What must it have been like for Bonehead? On the one hand, being Oasis's rhythm guitarist in their prime must have been great. On the other hand, he contrasted badly with lead singer Liam Gallagher, who had some of the greatest hair in rock music. Arthurs even had a nickname which reflected that fact.

Hard to tell, but I respect the Gallaghers for keeping him in their band and not fire him, because he might have been too uncool for them. Btw. Liam has started balding badly and guess what is Noel´s biggest fear? Going bald......

Noel has amazing hair for his age, it would be surprising if he went bald now. You are correct about Liam, but his crown looks good now so he's either a good responder to finasteride or got a transplant.

not bad for a 45 year old, not bad at all.

Here he is at 41

What seems strange is that there are hardly any pictures which show early signs of thinning and then you suddenly have some where he looks like he is NW3. That´s why I though he was balding badly even though it started rather late.
What is really strange, in 2017 his hair looked like this again:

I guess Propecia + hair transplant?

But I am sure Noel is also gonna start balding sooner or later if he isn´t on Propecia yet. I have seen this quite a few times, that the younger brother went bald first and the older one followed a little bit later. I doubt he is gonna be on that endless list of never balding rockers like Ozzy Osboure, Iggy Pop, Steven Tyler, Mick Jagger etc.

yeah its interesting. He is balding in the NW3 pattern but he still has quite a lot of active and decent hairs in the NW2 area which you can see in that pic i posted which could explain why he can still pull of hairstyles like that. Then again it could easily be treatments and a hair transplant too. And yeah my older brother is a perfect NW1 at age 31 lmao, genetix are a b**ch.

I always assumed that there hairstyles with bangs were to cover recession. I know Ben Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie has always been rocking a bowl cut to hide recession.


Rare chance you see his temples: He looks like a solid Norwood 2 or so.

This was from November 2013 - severely thinned crown. He must have had a transplant or responded really well to finasteride. Looks to have a lot of good donor hair, so could well have been the former.

From 5:29:

“I mean I was never, I was never like comfortable with playing the lead guitarist role anyway. I’m more of a rhythm guitarist man myself. But because Bonehead was bald, you know, and I sort of had a semi-decent haircut, it was down to me to be the Jimmy Page of the group.”


Partly tongue in cheek I’m sure. But many a true word spoken in jest.

Loool I’ve been meaning to make this thread the last week or so and lo and behold it’s already been made.

Noel is an ugly/obnoxious prick but he truly has the hair of the gods.

baldness is sh*t,
but so much hair on your head looks just as fucked up.
Especially when you're older.

This guy just looks stupid.


Now the best:


This is the father of him and his brother :
