This is an image of him from last year as a nw3/4

Perhaps he is better to just have his hair loss on display as it was last year - at least he didn't get mocked for a combover. Or maybe he just needs to learn from the master hair loss disguiser jude law:

Thoughts?

This 'style' wasn't much better either. In fact, this is what I'm afraid of looking like. Once you've lost so much from your temples, and your forelock gets that shitty, I don't know. There's just not much that can be done with that. If you comb it forward, you look ridiculous. The only choice at that point is to shave it, which means game over.

OTOH, at least he's lost weight.

Projecting.
Besides the hot ones are too busy getting railed by Chad.

I won't feel anything if any black girl will insult me with genetic hairloss tbh.

I'd be very сautious in their place to insult someone. They have a genetic thing called black skin so I won't mind to response with "at least I'm white" with a clear conscience.

Terrible comb over. Jude Law could get away with doing it in that picture as he still had thicker hair and it was wavy. Gates comb over is crap as the back and sides are so long, his hair is generally thin and also his forelock is largely gone too in one of the pictures. Growing it out it looks mentally and physically weak.

He would be better off doing something like this for now.

Shave will be game over but he might have reached that stage now unless he can do something like above. Either way he has the money and donor hair to get a full head most likely so who cares.
Yeah, pretty much agreed. Will Arnett does the balding gracefully look:

The only acceptable combover is the faux-hawk but even then there's so much people will tolerate until you get comments to shave it all off.

Pretty easy for him when he's in his 40s. Try having that exact same hairstyle at 23-24. Not so graceful anymore.
If Arnett used a touch of toppik at the front then he would look like a full head

Now you see why I don't feel any empathy for women, no matter what they go through. "Painful experiences".

The b****s would deserve it, no doubt. However, this is the only treatment bald people are ever going to get. Whatever yoy do (cure it, don't cure it, transplant, wig, etc.), you'll be mocked. Balding is a serious social crime today.

Combover is just sh*t,
It shows weak self-consciousness and a massive uncertainty.

When it's over, it's over...time to say good bye and shave it off!

As stupid as it is, he looks good in comparison to shaving it bald, and having a visible horse shoe.

What works in his favor is the quality donor, sides, and temple points he has managed to maintain.


Most people wont be able to get over the stigma that he has an aggressive comb over, even if it is managed, and kept in line.

I actually disagree - in the early stages - nw3 or under - balding is hidden by having more hair not less.

When I shaved mine I looked very receeding and thinned but when I grew it out I look so much better.

Here are good examples of concealing hair styles:

Norwood 2.5 short and concealed:

NW3:

Jude Law nw4:

Justin Theroux nw3:

So there are some good examples of men who look good now and would look worse bald. I think people say shave your hair too early in the hair loss battle. My advice is to keep your hair until atleast nw4 stage. Anything earlier than that is too soon and will make you look worse.

Plus, not many people are norwood spotters. I remember saying to my ex that jude law is going bald and she would believe me and insisted that was just his hair line (this is around 2008 when he was balding but maybe not significantly bald).
