Jake Paul Hair Loss – Get the Shocking Answers Here
The career of Jake Paul has taken some interesting twists and turns over the years. He first entered the public eye on the Vine social media app before joining the cast of a Disney Channel TV show. He then saw his fame continue to grow on social media before his latest career change as a professional boxer. He is also becoming well-known for the possible changes in his hairline as his fans are beginning to believe Jake Paul has a receding hairline.
Jake Paul – Reaction to his Hairline
During a press conference for his last fight against Tyron Woodley, Jake Paul’s hair could best be described as a messy mop of hair that falls in a forward manner across his forehead. Some of his fans believe his hair is worn that way to try and hide a receding hairline.
Twitter users did not hold back on their feelings about his (possibly) receding hairline:
- “Can we all agree…Jake Paul gotta get the “I love Tyron Woodley” tattoo on that hairline?”
- “Tyron Woodley told Jake Paul pull his hair back and that yt man hairline”
- “Worst hairline of 2021”
- “I’ve been slowly losing my hair since I was about 25 and because of that, I try not to make fun of others whose hairline is receding or going bald unless they suck as a person. Anyway ha ha Jake Paul is totally balding.”
- “Still hiding your hairline bud”
- “Ur mad cus a 31 year old still has better hairline than you Fight real boxers fam”
One user of Reddit shared a photo of Jake Paul running his hand through his hair. Even though the photo was somewhat grainy, the photo shows that this Internet celebrity has a rather clear widow’s peak.
Although his curly hair usually covers up the appearance of his scalp, the image of Jake Paul pulling back his hair seems to show that he might be experiencing some level of balding in the front section of his hairline.
While the photo in question was grainy in appearance, there have been other photos that seem to reinforce the opinion that Jake Paul is suffering from a receding hairline.
It might seem in bad taste to make fun of a person with a receding hairline, but Jake Paul is proving to be a popular target for many people online. He has been known in the past to make fun of others including his opponents in the ring. The public is enjoying the opportunity to make fun of Jake Paul much like he has made fun of others online, and in-person, in the past.
Jake Paul – How is He Addressing His Hair Loss?
With all of the speculation about his hair loss, what is Jake Paul doing to combat his receding hairline?
At the moment, the answer appears to be “not much”.
Thanks to his new life as a professional boxer, Jake Paul is spending a lot of time in the gym or in the boxing ring. His boxing paydays certainly makes it easy for him to afford any kind of hair loss treatment he wants to undergo in the future.
If he does have some type of treatment for his hair loss, it would likely be noticed by his fans and those who have been following the story of his receding hairline on the Internet. Right now, it looks like his only strategy is to continue wearing his hair in his longtime manner of having a shaggy head of hair.
Hair Transplant for an Effective Hair Loss Treatment
According to the American Hair Loss Association, the loss of hair on the scalp is an experience that two-thirds of all men will have by the time they reach 35 years of age. In other words, it can happen to almost any man in some point in his life.
Men that are experiencing some form of hair loss can schedule a consultation appointment with a board-certified doctor to have an examination performed on their scalp and determine the cause of the hair loss. The surgeon can also recommend a treatment plan to restore the hairline of the person in order to gain a natural and youthful looking head of hair.
A hair transplant can provide results that last a lifetime and give patients a fuller amount of hair in the balding area. During an FUE hair transplant, the surgeon removes donor hair on an individual basis from another part of the body (usually the sides and back of the scalp of the patient) and then transplants them into the balding area of the scalp.
Anyone interested in learning more about the hair transplant California experience can contact our office today to schedule a consultation appointment. Our expert medical team will answer any questions the patient has about hair loss and hair transplants and also set realistic expectations about the type of results the patient can expect to enjoy after the procedure.
Joe Buck Hair Transplant Revealed – See the Story with Dr. Mohebi

Joe Buck is an acclaimed sportscaster known for his work as the lead announcer for both baseball and football for Fox Sports. The 52-year-old is also well-known for the changes in his hairline thanks to multiple hair transplants over the years. While many patients only have one hair transplant surgery to get the results they desire, Joe has undergone multiple procedures in the past including one that impacted his ability to speak. Joe Buck recently made the decision to undergo another hair transplant using the services of Dr. Mohebi and our Los Angeles hair transplant team.
Our staff has put together a behind the scenes video spotlighting Joe Buck’s latest procedure. Dr. Mohebi also explains why older hair transplant techniques, such as the ones Joe had in the past, led to complications with patients and why they are not used by medical professionals anymore.
This informative video takes patients inside our Los Angeles surgical center for a look at how Joe’s hair transplant surgery is performed. The patient is also a big part of the video as Joe shares his thoughts about the surgery before, during and after the procedure:
FUE Hair Transplant – How it Works
A hair transplant is essentially what the phrase says as donor hair, taken from another area on the body of the patient, is moved/transplanted into the balding area of the scalp. The surgery works to rejuvenate the hairline of the patient and provide a fuller and thicker appearance to the hair on the scalp.
The most popular hair transplant technique currently performed by surgeons across the country is Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE). In this hair restoration procedure, the hair grafts are individually harvested from the donor area of the body. FYI: The donor area is usually located on the back and sides of the scalp as the hair located in this area is resistant to balding.
The extracted hair grafts are removed from the donor area and placed in the balding area of the scalp. Because this hair transplant method removes the hair grafts on an individual basis, the procedure does not leave a linear scar on the scalp so it is not obvious to others that the patient had a hair transplant.
Celebrity Hair Transplant – Is it Right for You?
Patients that want to have a hair transplant, while keeping this fact anonymous, should consider having Celebrity Hair Transplant™ by Dr. Parsa Mohebi. This outpatient hair restoration surgery requires minimal downtime on the part of the patient and includes little to no detectability after the surgery.
It is a non-shaven FUE hair transplant procedure that allows patients to enter the hair transplant process with long hair. In addition, most patients will not need any trimming or shaving of the hair so they can wear the same hairstyle before and after the procedure. Please note this hair transplant procedure is more labor intensive than other hair restoration techniques so the total amount of hair grafts that can be transplanted is more limited in number.
Joe Buck and Hair Transplants
When it comes to having a hair transplant, Joe Buck is not afraid to admit he had a procedure. In fact, he recently discussed his latest hair restoration procedure on an episode of his popular podcast with Oliver Hudson, “Daddy Issues” As seen below, Joe shares the news with Oliver starting at the 11:20 mark:
Here is a sample of the conversation this week between Joe Buck, Oliver Hudson and Dr. Mohebi:
Dr. Mohebi joins the conversation at the 12:44 mark and instantly starts taking questions from the curious and engaging hosts of the show. It is interesting to watch the conversation progress as even Oliver Hudson, a man who seems to have a healthy and full head of hair, has the doctor take a look at his hairline to see if he might need medical help in the future.
The chat with Dr. Mohebi touches on:
- The self-image of a person before, and after, a hair transplant
- The changes in hair restoration technology over the years
- Other common questions many people want to ask a hair transplant but have not had the opportunity to ask them in the past
The fact that Joe Buck, a famous and successful broadcaster, had a hair transplant shows that hair loss can impact anyone regardless of their age, profession or status in life.
Patients interested in learning more about a hair transplant are invited to contact our office today to schedule a consultation appointment at our Los Angeles hair transplant surgical center, our Beverly Hills medical office or our San Francisco hair transplant surgical center.
Prince Harry – Royal Family Hair Loss Gossip
Since leaving England to live in America, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been the subject of many stories and online gossip. There have been multiple reports about Prince Harry and his possible hair loss as well as the role his wife is playing in trying to address the issue.
Prince Harry Hair Loss – Impacting Their Image?
One of the latest tales about the duo revolves around the hairline of Prince Harry and how Markle is trying to get hm to have a hair transplant in order to save their image.
According to the National Enquirer, Meghan Markle is obsessed with their public image and is doing her best to talk Harry into making a change with his hair. The magazine says she will not let him leave the house without wearing a cap so he can cover his bald spot. A source told the magazine, “Meghan’s all about appearance, so when she sees Harry’s hair coming out in clumps, she wants him to do something about it before it’s too late.”
In addition, the source reported that Meghan feels Harry will need to have a full head of hair if she is going to be able to resume her acting career in Hollywood. Prince Harry is said to agree with the plan as he is not happy about “being the laughingstock of the British press for his rapid hair loss. He’s ready to do something about it.”
So far, the National Enquirer has been unable to conform that Meghan Markle is pushing her husband to make a change in the appearance of the balding area on his scalp.
Prince Harry – Balding Area Growing in Size?
There have been claims that the balding area on the back of his scalp has grown in size since 2018 when he married Markle. One news source spoke to Dr. Asim Shahmalak, a hair transplant surgeon in Manchester’s Crown Hill, who said that 34-year-old Prince Harry is losing his hair at the same rate as his 37-year-old brother, Prince William. The two brothers are not the only members of the British royal family who have suffered hair loss. The lack of hair on the scalp has been evident from Prince Philip to Prince Charles to Prince William and Prince Harry.
According to Dr. Shahmalak, “The baldness gene is not as strong in Harry but he is still losing his hair quickly. At present, most of Harry’s hair loss is around the crown area. He has a growing bald patch right across his crown and you can also see that his hair is also thinning out towards the front.” The doctor added that Harry might have inherited his balding from the family of his mother as Princess Diana’s father was also bald.
Prince Harry – Interest in His Hair Loss
The latest round of interest in the hair loss of Prince Harry started when Meghan and Harry were featured in an interview with Oprah Winfrey earlier this year. One of the main items the public noticed in the interview was the thinning of Harry’s hair. His hair loss has been blamed on everything from genetics to stress.
It might be an understatement to say the couple has been under severe stress ever since the day they were married. Markle was constantly the subject of critical stories in the British press and they eventually left their home in England to move to America. They have since remained in the news due to their accusations of racism towards them on the part of the royal family.
Prince Harry – Hair Restoration Options
If it turns out to be true that Harry and Meghan are worried about his hair loss, there are multiple hair transplant options available to him to address the issue.
Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) hair transplant is performed by removing hair grafts from the donor area of the body (which is usually the back and sides of the scalp). The hair grafts are transplanted to the balding area of the scalp where they will grow just like normal hair. The hair from the back and sides of the scalp are resistant to balding which is why this is such a popular area to harvest hair grafts.
There are some patients that want to keep their hair transplant private and wish to remain anonymous about having a procedure. Celebrity Hair Transplant™ by Dr. Parsa Mohebi is an outpatient hair restoration surgery that requires little downtime after the procedure. In addition, there is little detectability that a patient had the surgery. There is no trimming or shaving required for the donor or recipient areas of the scalp so patients can keep the same hairstyle when they arrive at, and leave, the office. The number of hair grafts that can be transplanted is lower than standard FUE due to the more labor-intensive aspect of this procedure. There are also no visible scars after the surgery and an even distribution of the grafts.
If Price Harry decides to make a change in the appearance of his hairline, the hair transplant procedures listed above are good options for the medical solutions he needs to gain a more youthful and refreshed hairline.

Joe Rogan – Popular Podcaster Admits to Hair Transplant
Joe Rogan is known for many things in the entertainment industry. He is one of the most popular personalities associated with the UFC thanks to his color commentary duties. He is also one of the most well-known podcast hosts in the world along with being an actor and a comedian. Rogan is also known for the large scar on the back of his head. He recently decided to address the issue of the scar on his head by revealing the scar is the result of a hair transplant procedure.
Joe Rogan Hair Transplant Revealed
During an interview earlier this year, Rogan talked about how he got the prominent scar on the back of his head. “I had a hair transplant, that was the dumbest thing I have ever done; I have a giant scar on the back of my head; it looks like a smile.”
While Rogan did not reveal the type of hair transplant procedure performed on his scalp, it sounds like he had Follicular Unit Transplant (FUT) where a strip of skin is removed from the back of the scalp. The strip of skin contains hair grafts that will be transplanted into the scalp. This hair restoration procedure is not as popular as it was in the past due to the fact that it leaves a visible scar on the area of the scalp where the strip of skin was removed.
When furthering discussing his hair transplant procedure, Rogan said “Now the way they do it, in a lot of places they do it differently, they do one individual follicle at a time. I just was scared that I was going bald. I was like, what can you do. And they tell you like they can fix it. I was like Oh great, I’ll just get it fixed, but it doesn’t really fix it.”
While people across the world make the decision to have a hair transplant, Rogan believes that having this procedure was not a choice he should have made in the past. “I should have just shaved my head, I just didn’t know the freedom.”
Reasons why Joe Rogan had a Hair Transplant
As mentioned above, Joe Rogan has been a success in many aspects of the entertainment world. Before becoming an acclaimed podcaster and UFC commentator, he was known for his work on the TV show, “NewsRadio” and his stand-up career.
Because of his work on the comedy stage and on TV, Rogan believed that a negative appearance to his hair could have an impact on his career. The worries about the look of his hair made him terrified of the thought of losing the existing hair and being bald.
When recalling his feelings at the time, Rogan said “I think I was 28, well I just started acting on TV and I was panicking, my hair was like seriously falling out. And I was like, this s**t is going quick and I was like where is it gonna go. I knew that part of the reason why I was making money was the way I looked.”
Even though he was worried about the possible loss of his hair, it did not have a big impact on his employment prospects as he has become a star in various mediums and reaches a large audience each week with his podcast.
Hair Transplant Options
While Joe Rogan regrets having a hair transplant, there are many celebrities and “everyday people” that are happy with the results they have gained from having professional hair restoration surgery.
One of the most popular hair transplant choices is Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) where the hair grafts are removed from the donor area of the scalp on an individual basis. Thanks to the ability of the doctor to harvest the hair grafts individually, as opposed to having to cut a strip of skin out of the scalp, patients are able to enjoy a rejuvenated hairline that lasts a lifetime.
Unlike Joe Rogan, there are some celebrities that do not want to share the fact they made the decision to have a hair transplant. One of our most popular Los Angeles hair transplant options is Celebrity Hair Transplant™ by Dr. Parsa Mohebi. This outpatient hair restoration procedure, also available at our San Francisco hair transplant surgery center, is an outpatient procedure that involves little downtime post-surgery and little to no detectability. Because this hair restoration procedure is more labor-intensive than other techniques, the number of hair grafts that can be transplanted during the surgery is more limited in number.
Before making the decision to have a hair transplant, the first step is scheduling a consultation appointment with one of our board-certified surgeons that is experienced in performing hair transplants. Our doctors will examine the scalp of the patient to determine the cause of the hair loss, the amount of available donor hair and the type of results the patient can expect to see. Once the doctor and the patient agree about the type of hair transplant that will best provide the desired results, the procedure can be scheduled.

Female Celebrities that have Suffered from Hair Loss – See the List
Hair loss is often thought of as being a “male problem” and this is true for celebrities in Hollywood. There is often a focus on male celebrities that lose their hair but the opposite is not true for female in movies, TV and the music industry. In fact, female hair loss among celebrities is a common problem. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, 40% of women experience some form of hair loss by the time they reach 40 years of age. The reasons for hair loss in women can include postpartum hormone changes, genetics and the aging process. These changes to the body place an undue stress on the person and causes the body to work harder and neglect other functions (like hair growth) in order to respond to the drastic and stressful changes. Here are just some of the female celebrities who have come forth with their tale of hair loss and how they treated and/or embraced their loss of hair on the scalp.
Female Celebrities and Their Hair Loss Stories
Tyra Banks
The fact that Tyra Banks is a model, businesswoman and television personality did not stop her from experiencing hair loss due to stress in her life. She remarked that her stress level reached its peak while writing “Modelland” (her 2011 book). When discussing her hair loss, Banks told one publication “Honestly, chilling for me was eating a meal. I couldn’t just look at the ocean. And in hindsight that wasn’t healthy.” She went to say that she was not able to discuss her hair loss with others without tearing up.
Keira Knightley
The need to dye her hair for various roles had a big impact on the hair of actress Keira Knightley. She began to notice her hair falling out after many years of changing her hair color for movie roles. Her hair loss was so bad that she wore wigs for five years until her hair grew back once she became pregnant with her daughter in 2015. Knightley told InStyle U.K., “I have dyed my hair virtually every color imaginable for different films. It got so bad that my hair literally began to fall out of my head! So for the past five years I’ve used wigs, which is the greatest thing that’s ever happened to my hair.”
Selma Blair
After giving birth to her son in 2011, Selma Blair began to experience postpartum hair loss brought on changes in her hormones. She approached the issue by directly discussing her hair loss with the public and making sure her bald patches were visible to others instead of trying to cover them during interviews. In one interview, she said “This is so not glamorous, but it’s true: I need to take longer showers so that I can collect the hair that falls out and throw it away so I don’t clog the drain. Why do actresses never talk about that? It just started falling out at the three-month mark. And I’m not a girl who likes extensions, so Selma’s going to be bald!”
Lea Michele
Much like the story Selma Blair discussed above, Lea Michele did not attempt to hide her hair loss from the public. She took to Instagram early this year to talk about her postpartum hair loss after the birth of her first child. The actress and singer shared a photo of a clump of hair that had fallen out of her scalp. Along with the photo, she wrote “The postpartum hair loss is REAL. Enjoying this long hair while it lasts because the mom bob is right around the corner.”
Viola Davis
This Emmy, Tony and Academy Award winning actress is now 55 years old but she first started to notice her hair loss at the age of 28. After learning that her loss of hair was due to stress, she decided to simply internalize her feelings about the condition. She described her hair loss as looking like she had a Mohawk and a “big splash of bald on the top of my head”. Due to being embarrassed by the appearance of her hair, she started to wear wigs everywhere she went. While she still wears wigs at different times, she now treats them as an option and not a defense mechanism that allowed her to hide her hair loss. She stated, “I never showed my natural hair. It was a crutch, not an enhancement. I was so desperate for people to think I was beautiful. I had to be liberated from that [feeling] to a certain extent.”
How to Address Female Hair Loss
Besides the steps taken by the celebrities listed above to tackle their hair loss, females experiencing hair loss can also schedule a consultation appointment with a board-certified doctor who is experienced in diagnosing and treating female hair loss. Females can experience either female patterned baldness (FPB) or male patterned baldness (MPB). The consultation appointment will determine the cause of the hair loss along with making a plan to medically treat the hair loss suffered by the patient.

Nicolas Cage Hair Transplant – Did it Happen?
Nicolas Cage is one of the most interesting actors of the modern era. He has been an Oscar winner for “Leaving Las Vegas” while also appearing in crowd pleasing movies such as “Raising Arizona” and “National Treasure”. The 57-year-old actor has also been the subject of speculation for many years when it comes to his appearance. He has been suspected of having a facelift as well as a hair transplant. Let’s take a look at the changing hairline of Nicolas Cage to see if it can be determined if he had a hair restoration procedure.
Nicolas Cage Hairline Speculation
In the early years of his career, Cage had a full head of hair that seemed to recede as the years passed. In 2009, the actor was spotted at the Toronto Film Festival with hair that can best be described as thinning and greying. Two years later, in 2011, Cage was spotted enjoying what was called a “suspiciously full head of hair” at the Los Angeles premiere of the movie, “Drive Angry 3D”.
His hair was thick in “Raising Arizona” but he did have a receding hairline at the time. The recession of his hairline has become even worse over the years. Cage started to lose his hair at his crown and the hair on the top of his head has become even thinner. Many people suspect that the actor is exhibiting classic signs of MPB (male pattern baldness).
However, the actor seems to have more head on the top of his head and the crown of his head has also become thicker in appearance. In addition, a recent Netflix show seems to indicate that he might have undergone a hair transplant.
Nicolas Cage and Netflix
With the release of the new series, “History of Swear Words” on Netflix, many of his fans on social media are discussing the fact that the actor now has a head full of dark, brown hair.
Some of the comments include:
- “Can we all talk about Nicolas Cage’s excellent hair transplant though? It looks good!”
- “I’m struggling to get over Nicolas Cage new hair & dark beard.”
- “The Netflix curse word series has so many bizarre choices that happen so fast but none more insane to me than the choice of not letting there be one grey hair visible anywhere on Nicolas Cage’s person.” This social media user went on to add, “No one is fooled, I’m just thinking about the dye job.”
Hair Transplant Explained
The question remains…Did Nicolas Cage have a hair transplant or did he adopt a new hairstyle along with some hair dye to change his look?
If he did have a hair transplant, the changes to his hairline were surgically performed by a trained surgeon. A hair transplant is the moving of hair grafts from one part of the body to the balding area of the scalp. The hair grafts are usually moved from the donor area of the scalp which is normally located on the back and sides of the scalp.
If there is not enough high-quality, viable donor hair located on the back or sides of the scalp, the hair grafts can be taken from other areas of the body such as the beard or the chest. The hair that is transplanted will grow like the natural hair that is located on the scalp but will not be subject to the balding process.
The most popular hair transplant method is FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) where the hair grafts are individually harvested from the donor area of the scalp. The fact that they are individually harvested means the hair grafts can be removed without leaving a linear scar on the scalp.
Patients, such as Nicolas Cage, who want to have a hair transplant but still keep it anonymous, might be ideal candidates for Celebrity Hair Transplant™ by Dr. Parsa Mohebi. This hair transplant method provides little to no detectability as well as little downtime. There is rarely any trimming or shaving of the hair on the donor or recipient areas and the entire process includes transplanting a more limited number of grafts during the procedure. In addition, this hair transplant technique is a non-shaven FUE hair transplant procedure.

Sam Smith – His Thoughts on Balding and Hair Transplants
The number of men that suffer some form of hair loss is in the millions. Some men accept their hair loss and do not attempt to make any changes to their scalp while others have a hair transplant to address the issue of balding. Sam Smith, the Grammy-winning singer, recently discussed the topic of his hair loss in an interview with Vogue. He shared the reasons he decided to make a change in the appearance of his hairline. Smith also named the person that gave him hair transplant advice that prompted him to have a hair restoration procedure.
Sam Smith Discusses Hair Loss
In his interview with Vogue, Smith said “It’s been a touchy place for me actually. I haven’t actually spoken about this before, so I’m going speak about it, because I don’t actually feel like I have anything to hide. But I was losing my hair..about two years ago and so my hairdresser Paul basically said he thought it would be a good idea for me to get a transplant and to look into it…and I have had a hair transplant. How stunning is it? It’s nice to have hair.”
Hair Transplant Solutions
Sam Smith is certainly correct with that last statement. It is nice to have hair whether you are one of the most well-known and successful music artists in the world or an “everyday person” looking to make a change in the appearance of the scalp. As the name of the procedure suggests, hair transplant surgery is the moving of hair from one area of the body to the thinning/balding area on the scalp of the patient. The hair that is transplanted comes from the body of the actual patient. The hair is not able to be transplanted from the body of another person.
The surgeon typically removes hair grafts from the donor area of the scalp (which is normally the back and sides of the scalp). The hair from the donor area of the head is resistant to balding. This is the main reason the surgeon prefers to take the transplanted hair from this portion of the body.
Patients that do not have enough quality hair in the donor area to move to the scalp can transplant hair from other areas of the body such as the beard.
The surgeon makes small incisions in the targeted area of the scalp where the hair grafts will be inserted (placed). The transplanted hair will grow and provide a fuller hairline as a solution to the issue of balding suffered by the patient.
Hair Transplants – Are The Results Permanent?
Once a patient has a hair transplant, the results will be permanent with no need to have an additional hair restoration procedure performed on the targeted area of the scalp.
However, this does not mean that a patient will not want to undergo additional hair restoration surgery on other areas of the scalp in the future. The hair transplant only prevents balding from occurring again in the section of the scalp where the hair grafts were placed. Balding or thinning hair might occur later in life in other sections of the scalp. If balding does occur in other parts of the scalp, the patient can have a hair transplant performed to obtain permanent hair restoration results in these additional areas on the scalp.
It is also important for the patient to follow any post-op instructions provided by the doctor. Learning the proper way to wash the hair after a transplant, and also avoiding any strenuous exercise or activities for several weeks, will help to ensure the success of the procedure.
Hair Transplant Alternative
There are some patients that want to make a change to the appearance, and amount, of their hair but they are not sure about having a hair transplant. They might be afraid to have a surgical procedure or they might not want to spend the money (yet) on hair restoration surgery. Thankfully, there are some alternatives they can use to address the issue of their hair loss.
Minoxidil, AKA Rogaine, is considered to be a vasodilator which is a medication that works to open the blood vessels. According to the Rogaine website, the product penetrates the scalp to “increase protein production to lengthen your hair’s active growth phase.” Minoxidil is believed to partially enlarge the hair follicles of a patient and also increase the growth phase of the hair cycle.
Once the patient starts to use Rogaine, the product must be used on a daily basis. If the patient stops using the medication for an extended period of time, the hairline will lose the positive changes that have been gained. The hairline will return to its original pre-minoxidil appearance.
Sam Smith Gives the Final Word
Another reason that patients might not want to have a hair transplant is they do not mind being bald. While Sam Smith decided to have a hair transplant, he also said he would not be ashamed of having a bald appearance. According to Smith, “If I was bald, I would still own it, too. Because bald is beautiful.”

Joel McHale – Multiple Hair Transplants Revealed
The pressure to stay relevant in show business means that many Hollywood actors and actresses have cosmetic surgery procedures that turn back the clock on their appearance. One procedure that is popular among male celebrities is a hair transplant and this is true of actor Joel McHale, He is known for the TV shows “Community” and “The Soup” as well as hosting the game show “Card Sharks”.
Pressure to have Perfect Hollywood Hair
The hair on the head of a person is a source of great interest for many celebrity watchers. While the hair on female stars is often judged for its style and layers, male celebrities are often judged as looking youthful (or not) by the amount of hair they have on their head.
The need to have a healthy and full head of hair often means male celebrities turn to a hair transplant to get the look they desire. There are some hair restoration patients that do not want anyone to know they had any type of procedure while others talk about the changes they have made to their appearance. Joel McHale has been open about the fact that he had multiple hair transplant surgeries to gain his current hairline.
Joel McHale Battles his Insecurities
One of the aspects of the show “The Soup” that fans enjoyed was the way it equally made fun of people and events in pop culture. The show addressed the appearance of celebrities and often pointed out flaws or odd aspects about their look. McHale’s decision to focus on his appearance might come from his time on that show or it might be the result of pressure to stay youthful looking and relevant to the public. Whatever the motivation behind his desire to enhance his appearance, Joel McHale has discussed his feelings about taking care of his body. He told Metro Weekly that he is a regular at the gym. “I go in there thinking I’m in shape, and then I go in, and I’m like, ‘Ooh, I am not in shape. I need to work herder’”.
In addition to feeling insecure about his level of fitness, McHale also admits to having insecurities about the appearance of his hair. There has been a good amount of speculation about his hairline. He initially decided not to publicly address the gossip about his hair. However, this only resulted in more speculation and questions about his hair.
Joel McHale Discusses His Hair
After many years of avoiding questions about his hair, the actor finally decided to discuss the subject with the public. During a podcast with Justin Long, he admitted to undergoing three hair transplant surgeries.
McHale told Long that he would be “totally bald. We’re not all born with gorgeous thick hair like you.” Long asked the actor when he started to lose his hair and what made him decide to address the issue of his thinning hair.
McHale said, “Oh, 18, 19 [years old}…When I started The Soup, I look at some of the promo photos and I’m like, ‘Oh yeah.’ Maybe I’ve gone overboard and this really shows my midlife crisis but my theory is that I’m never going to die and it’s a good theory.”
He is happy with the results of his three hair transplant surgeries. He even started to brag about the results by saying, “look at my hair! The technology is bananas now. They pluck your hair and stick it here.”
McHale did advise those looking to have a hair transplant to take their time and make sure they pick the right surgeon for their procedure. He even discussed the topic of fixing the results of hair transplant surgeries with his doctor. “The guy who did mine, he’s like, ‘Oh, I spend a lot of time fixing crappy surgeries where they go to different countries and it’s a third of the cost.”
McHale seems to be happy with the results of his procedures. He even says, “I’m Joel McHale for hair transplants.”
Hair Transplant Option for Patients that Want to keep it Private
There are many patients that do not want to let others know they have undergone any type of hair transplant surgery. These patients might be ideal candidates for Celebrity Hair Transplant™ by Dr. Parsa Mohebi.
This innovative FUE hair transplant procedure is an outpatient surgery with little to detectability or downtime after the hair transplant. Patients can come into the procedure with long hair and they will not have to undergo any shaving or trimming of the donor or recipient areas. In fact, most patients can wear the same hairstyle when they arrive and when they depart our office.
Please note that this is a labor intensive hair transplant and only a limited number of grafts can be moved to the scalp during the surgery. It is ideal for patients that require a smaller number of grafts per session.
