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?

@LikeWhoUsesTypewritersAnyway disgusting? No not really.

Poor William but even worse poor George.

He’s so much better looking now than a few years back, remember when he was in his fleece era? He looked like he worked at the local garden centre rather than a Prince of the Realm. He’s always had a nice physique and can carry clothes well and he looks great with a beard and a bit of a tan.

This. ^ Saying a man can't possibly be attractive unless he has a hair transplant is disgusting. Hmm

Good point. There’s some extraordinary sycophancy about William and Kate on MN

Show quote history

Even if there is, why does it bother you? Why so invested in other peoples opinions? Weird. Confused

Out of interest, would it be nasty if it was about Wayne Rooney?

Of course it would. 🙄

I’m watching too which is what prompted my post. I just think, bless you as I bet you must think about it.

The Royal men are quite hair challenged

I wish he would wear a hat, not good for him with all that sun.

Urgh, what a nasty thread. 😖

earlier today (USA) texted both my dc that William is killing it in the beard. He IS bald. It IS too late for follicle transplant as it’s best results to start filling in rather than starting with a bald pate. He’s pretty close to man in finance 6’5 trust fund blue eyes.

TheFluffyTwo · 13/07/2025 18:43

He looks absolutely fine and to be honest I'm pleased that he's just getting on with aging normally and healthily. It's a much better example to set.

PhilippaGeorgiou · 13/07/2025 18:31

Perhaps he could ask the US president about tips for the folically challenged when he comes for his state visit.

I love this guy, what a difference the hair pieces make!

Hair transplants always ALWAYS look obvious and ridiculous.

SaintGermain · 13/07/2025 18:28

Facebook sometimes shows me reels where men have hair systems fitted.

The men are sometimes crying so it’s obviously an emotional issue for some of them.

But there is something about that level of vanity in a man that just doesn’t appeal to me.

They are quite an impressive transformation for some though

soupyspoon · 13/07/2025 18:26

I think people underestimate baldness in men, its difficult for some of them, perhaps its difficult for him, perhaps its not

If I lost my hair as a woman no one would blink an eye if I had extensions or a wig but when men do it they're ridiculed.

I would want a hair transplant if I was a bloke. But Elton John's looks quite bad, unless they're better these days?

None of those things are comparable with replacing hair.

Show quote history

Do you know what the procedure is (genuine question)? If so, how isn't it comparible?

Tits used to be perky now saggy, cut into chest and add something extra. Head used to be hairy now baldy, cut into scalp and add something extra.

cumbriaisbest · 13/07/2025 18:23

Charles is a fan of the comb over and curly bit at the back.

pearcrumblee · 13/07/2025 18:22

He looks great, there is something very wholesome and attractive about the natural look.

If a man had suggested that women or the Princess should get a boob job as she ages there would be outrage.

FrodoBiggins · 13/07/2025 18:22

Namenamchange · 13/07/2025 18:10

Hang on, Catherine’s allowed hair extensions, so why not William, seems like double standards to me.

Edited

Well one involves plaiting or clipping hair onto your hair, the other is a painful invasive surgery involving cutting chunks of flesh out of your thighs or arse crack and sticking them into incisions in your head

More comparable would be Kate having a BBL (or William wearing a toupee)

Perhaps OP will recognise how problematic this thread is if we reverse the genders?

Camilla should get a face lift.

Taylor Swift should get a BBL.

Lady Gaga should get a nose job.

Do you see the issue here? If not then I honestly don't know how to help you. 🙄

I’ve just had a look and am not sure what you’re talking about. The man has never looked better. He looks cool in his sunnies and with that beard.

Slight derail: what a lovely life they have when working on a Sunday means a family trip to Wimbledon with prime seats for a centre court final.
