That Prince William should just bite the bullet and get that hair transplant

I get the feeling he’d love one. He looked so handy with hair. Being the future King probably precludes him from getting one as it’s seen as trivial etc but I reckon he secretly wants one.

Do they do royal tours of Turkey?

As the wife of a bald man, I don’t understand why anyone thinks anyone needs to get a hair transplant.

The son of a friend of mine had a huge mental health crisis about his receding hairline (male pattern baldness). He was very traumatised. I think it sends out a very positive message for Prince William to embrace his baldness.

I agree. That's really sad to hear about your friends ds. I think too many people take the piss out of men going bald...i can imagine it could be really traumatic especially if you're young

Mohamed Salah had one and wasn’t ridiculed, if it was done well (and I’m sure Prince William could afford the best!) he’d probably be ok.

Then again by staying as he is he’s saying it’s fine to be bald which is a good thing for all the other bald guys out there.

If he was inclined to he could have had the elite wig makers style him something when it first started thinning, the fact he hasn't done suggests he's not that bothered. Nothing wrong with a bald man anyway

Julimia · 14/07/2025 19:14

Nothing to do with you. Or anyone else for thst matter

I always thought it was a shame he didn’t get a transplant when he started going bald

But why?

spirit20 · 14/07/2025 18:56

OP how about you post a photo of yourself and we can decide if you're attractive enough to be able to judge other people's looks?

If William and Harry both shaved their heads they would look like Phil and Grant Mitchell.

Absolutely this.
I wish there was no option other than to age normally whether it be accepting grey hair, hair loss, wrinkles, jowls, saggy boobs etc. Just be happy that you get to age with no pressure to look young.
Not referring to medical conditions/diseases where I am all for intervention!

Totally agree with intervention for medical issues too.

I think everyone should just accept aging and what comes with it, gracefully and naturally.

He looks fine as he is.

I guess he's confident enough not to worry about seeking the approval of shallow people who think hair transplants are a good use of anyone's time and money.

Silky brunette?

looks better, but the utter blandness of the hairstyle in the AI image 😂😂😂 Barnet needs to be slicked back or cropped instead of this insipid junior manager at Marks & Spencer nonsense.

Superhansrantowindsor · 14/07/2025 18:42

Blinking heck - no wonder men get upset about being bald when people say these things!
There is nothing wrong with how he looks FGS. Not all of us are so shallow to impose our personal preferences on other people including complete strangers.

Couldn't care less, the lot of them are a waste of time and money.

Do they do that in Turkey too?

Show quote history

I can do it with a couple of loom bands, or a small hair tie, just let me know where and when.

cinnamongirl123 · 14/07/2025 18:30

No, he looks great as he is. I am disgusted by the suggestion that anyone should get cosmetic surgery.

Does he mind losing his hair? Very few men do. Funny thing that the family around them are so used to his looks I doubt they even notice his hair receding.

My GP's hair is receding, and I didn't even notice until it was pointed out. .

I’d imagine having a wife fight cancer he appreciates a healthy body and what is important in life which a head full of hair isn’t. People age, so what.

This, 100%

muddymommy · 14/07/2025 18:15

I'm not sure why you think you have any right to comment on anybody for their appearance?
Maybe share a photo of yourself so we can all comment on your face, hair, body etc.
I'm sure you have some areas of your body or looks that you aren't totally in love with...how hurtful would it be to hear people commenting about it?
Personally I find bald men very attractive just as some people love a curvy figure and some people prefer an athletic body.
I do find shallow, superficial people unattractive, just saying.

AllTheWatersTurnedToClouds · 14/07/2025 18:14

I've always been really glad that DH didn't give a shit that he went bald. We just shaved it off and got on with it.

Wills looks better now than he has in years - the beard is great on him

What a nasty post. Can imagine the uproar if a bloke came on here suggesting a woman should do something to improve her looks. Shame on you OP, and all those who on here who agree with you!

girlmeetsboy · 14/07/2025 18:08

I work for a hair transplant clinic and he's too far gone, there is no donor area left and the result would be really sparse, I think he looks great!
