  • 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 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.


  • 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.







  • Yes, we’ve established what ostracizing means. If anybody seems to be jumping through hoops to prove that this law, that target religious minorities isn’t targeted at religious minorities, is you. You shouldn’t have to force (or make them) “blend”. If there’s force or a mandate involved, then it’s already not the best path to freedom of expression and identity.

    There’s no such thing as a “secular dress” because people in a truly secular society, can come from different (incl non western) backgrounds and can choose to wear whatever they want. Therefore, you either don’t claim freedom of expression or identity or you accept that this is a targeted law aimed at a minority group in the name of “secularism” and is no different than the Taliban mandating face-covering like somebody else stated in these discussions. This just happens to be on the other end of the spectrum.










  • If there’s a group of people with a legitimate concern, a government should hear you out and make an assessment.

    You as a single person can choose to do whatever you want within reason and what’s permitted by law.

    You can continue to misconstrue this further however you like, but burning books is barbaric. We’re past that point as civilized society. But feel free to continue to argue for it behind the veneer of “freedom” or whatever else you can come up with.


  • People can chose to believe whatever they want. It’s the actions and the consequences that matter in a society. If burning a book becomes an act of inciting violence, then it should be reviewed, discussed and a law should come out of it as a consequence which discourages such an act. That’s how civilized societies should work which deem equality as a fundamental right for everyone.

    Your hypothetical scenario is just that and we can spend days going back and forth. We are talking about a real problem here.
