Yeah but if it is a hair transplant a beanie covers both donor and recipient and cant be accidently knocked off.
LOL its probably not even a hair transplant anyway but gourmetstylewellness.com has already made up its mind!

Jude if you're on here give us the answers :)

Fair point, maybe then he should of atleast picked an outfit to match the hat xD.

Even though Jude Law is generally a good looking guy and the ladies love him plus he has the money and fame I still think he realises going for the fully shaved off look won't suit him at all and that hairline is getting dangerously high lol. He'll probably have a hair transplant at some stage anyway since it's becoming quite popular and less taboo-ish with the famous lot.

I don't know why you'd think that, TravisB. That's ridiculous.

He needs hair to look as amazing as we're used to. He looks bleh in that beach photo.

Good to see that you're not like the typical superficial female re hair on men having been on a hair loss forum for so long.

Oh, STFU, I barely said anything. Jude looks amazing with hair, less amazing without it. His career is based on how handsome he is. It's not superficial to acknowledge reality. Fancy calling me superficial when all you men here do is rate women out of 10 and base your success in life on what rating your girlfriend is. Hypocrites are the worst.

I couldn't watch it but I will never understand why actors are so god damn embarrassed about getting a hair transplant. Honestly when I get mine if someone notices and asks I won't have any problem telling them "yes, I had my hair fixed. I didn't want to be bald so I did something about it...next question." Whats so hard about that? why is it embarrassing? If you don't want people to notice then whats the point of getting a hair transplant in the first place?

Lol. Your post really shows that you have no idea under how much pressure those actors (or other celebrites) are. Isn't that obvious? Come on man. :dunno:

Yeah these guys are supposed to be perfect just like the heroic characters they portray on film, if people see them as less than that they wont be so believable on film just imagine a action movie star who was openly gay he'd never get cast. So when Jude is playing a cool confident hero it would ruin the image if the audience knows that he's just a insecure bald guy.

Even women in the movies lie about their cosmetic procedures. And they dont have to appear masculine.

I understand the way the media works but taking a step back and looking at it, a celebrity like jude law admitting he'd had a hair transplant in a nonchalant way would show more confidence and security than hiding a transplant/baldness under hats.

Please show me a post where I as an individual have rated women as a number out of 10. Please tell me how you explain the fact that my girlfriend is the most attractive person that I personally know yet is about 50lbs overweight and probably wouldn't be a high number on this imaginary scale that you speak of.

You stated that Jude Law looked 'bleh' - the same superficial sh*t i've read elsewhere about women commenting on his hair loss. To do that as a woman on a hair loss forum beggars belief. It would be like me as a man going on a forum for women who are unable to lose weight because of a medical condition and saying that a female celebrity is now 'bleh' because she's fat. Sadly...this is the sort of insensitvity and shallowness that I have come to expect from a lot of women. I am only glad that I will never be with such a 'lady'.

to me they're more insecure if they try to hide it. I do understand celebrities are under pressure to remain attractive and telling people about it would be a no no but avoiding the question and changing the subject when asked about it shows how insecure and uncomfortable they are. matthew mcconaughey, Bradley Cooper, Mel Gibson, Ben Affleck, Tom Hanks, Sly, Joel McHale, Christian Slater, Joey Lawrene, Jamie Foxx, Al pacino, mickey Rourke have all had some work done on their hair and it isn't subtle...it's a very noticeable difference and they all seem to be getting work. Everyone knows they have had hair transplant's, are you seriously telling me that if they were to admit what most people already know they would suddenly stop being marketable as leading men? I call BS. It wouldn't matter.

No they dont only guys on here are concentrating on hair enough to realise. The general public dont even think about it. Which of those celebs has gone from openly NW3 to NW1 or 2? They've probably all had other forms of surgery too but thats secret aswell.
About the only A list guy who's definatley known about is Rooney.

I suppose you do have a point, but it's not as though I started the discussion or as though I say things I don't believe just to upset people. I just stated my opinion and I'm not going to pretend that he is as handsome bald as he is with more hair or that I don't notice and appreciate attractiveness like every other human being on this planet. He doesn't suit baldness, and I think the detatched forelock pattern is one of the worst. He looks heaps better in that second balding photo. I don't expect people to pretend I look as good with sh*t hair as I do with good hair, and I'm going to be honest.

And can people stop bringing up the fact that I am a woman. If women aren't welcome here, then ban me and be done with it. It seems as though I'm being held to a higher standard because of my gender. I can't say anything without people mentioning it as though it's relevant. It's getting tiresome hearing a version of "how dare a girl say that" every time I post an opinion.

Like someone else said - least you're honest.

It is the reason though that I REALLY struggle to see women in a positive light these days though. How the hell am i supposed to think differently when I am fast becoming 'bleh' as my hairline recedes. All down to the fact that I have the curse of sensitive hair genetics combned with high testosterone (tested a few weeks back - usually it would be considered a good thing!) Whenever i torture myself by reading womens comments online about male celebrities - one thing stands out - they are always so volatile ...a guy is either hot or ewwww (or as you stated 'bleh'). So tell me, how is a balding guy with little treatment opions available like me, supposed to feel attractive and good about himself in this society once he gets to a certain stage of hair loss? Get a good job to compromise ??? FFS!!!! Seriously though, what do I do - you're a woman - you like a guy wth hair - what should i do...shave it all off....wear a f'ng wig??? Torture.

*rant over*

She has a point though most guys on here talk about women in terms of either being attractive or not. 90%+ of guys on here are only here because they want to be with hot women and the hairloss is affecting their chances. And yet we call women superficial.

Not really sure what the point of this post is other than to stir up some ridiculous gender debate.

All people are visual/superficial to an extent. All I can say is that I personally wouldn't ever post on a forum saying a woman was unattractive because of a particular aspect of their appearance which affected all the women on that forum.

If you want to do the male v female thing then as a balding guy I really struggle to see the similarities. Women are very volatile with their choices...they are easily turned off...that is their nature (she has to be selective) - more often than not a man is easily turned on (he has to go reproduce by nature) and will look at the good aspects of a woman even if she is not typically beautiful. So often I hear a woman say 'nooo he's ewww, he's going bald...used to be hot though' *thinking back to comments i heared about prince william at the royal wedding'. I can't think of any common 'condition' that compares to what a guy having hair loss. It's not an indicator of bad health, it's actually a fairly masculine trait - yet society makes it out to be something terrible. It's out of your control completely if like me you dont wanna feminise your body chemistry and risk health implications - it's not like you can go to the gym and gain some hair or use a bit of eat healthy....but women sure are commonly turned off by it and are more than happy to express that. Only yesterday at a party i had a woman screaming out 'oooh he's got a decent body....such a shame he's going bald or I would take him home'.

My reason for caring about hair loss is that I want to feel good about myself. Part of that is being visually attractive to women because naturally it is a confidence boost. I am not trying to save my hair 'to get a hotter woman' - like i stated, my girlfriend is 50lbs overweight and she turns me on more than any woman ever has.

Tom hanks, Joel McHale, and Christian Slater have all had NW3 and have gone to at least a 2. McConaughey I'm not really sure what his was but it was pretty bad. These same four celebs have also had there work pointed out to the millions of people who read I believe People Magazine. They do before and after photos of celebs with suspected work done. McConaughey has been in there a few times. SO most people know he's bald and he still gets work as a handsome leading man... I think the lesson is that Hollywood doesn't care how you got your hair so much as whether or not you have hair

Yes but it's still all nothing but conjecture. If they came out an openly said it then the mystique would be ruined!
Exactly none of those guys have made it obvious I dont care what you say, Joe public does not think that all these guys have had hair transplant's. IF they have had work done they've been extremly conservative about it. You'd have to go from pretty much NW5 to NW2 for the public to take it in. What people on here dont realise is that 99% of the public are not obsessive Norwood spotters like we are. They are more likely to notice if a star gains or loses 15lbs than if they get a slight improvement in their hairline.
People genuinely dont realise that Stallone or Enrique Isglesias or Barry Manilow wigs are wearing or that Christian Slaters hair looks like an obvious hair transplant even though its obvious to the average gourmetstylewellness.com veteran.

Infact had Jude had about 800 grafts 2 or 3 yrs ago when he was NW2.5 rather than Nw3 he would have avoided all this hassle.

Heh. IMDB says he's been filming Anna Karenina...maybe he shaved it to enable himself to wear wigs/prosthetics etc easier. Or maybe he went sly and decided 5 mins afterwards that he didn't like it! It seem like a hair transplant but he's been a hat prisoner since last October?? I don't think Rooney was that long keeping his scars out of the public eye.

agreed. he looks like a typical ageing middle-aged man. balding, putting on weight, too hairy, etc etc. IMO he's passed it.

The most obvious part was the beanie with the suit. It's like turning up to a wedding with a sports jersey on or something. It just doesn't go.

I wonder if he went for a casual check shirt, jeans, trainers if Norton would have said anything to him.

Possibly not but any headgear inside is just a bit bizarre, unless you're 50cent wearing a baseball cap.

Yeah, I agree especially in the UK. Although beanies are becoming trendier and I see quite a lot of young uni types with them on even in pubs but still looks strange going into a pub with a cap or hat on. Many places won't let you in with one on either or a bouncer will tell you to take the hat off.

I know in the US a lot of people wear baseball caps in the shopping malls etc. I know a guy in the UK, he's about 50 ish and a hat prisoner always wearing a baseball cap and it really is the pink elephant in the room when he goes to the pub and poor guy as soon as he's away, everyone's saying ''What's he got underneath there'' etc type conversations.
