Thanks, Annee. Nice pictures, as always, but now I'm more worried than ever about the hairline (his, not hers!) :blink:
He is receding. A perfectly natural thing for a man of his age. I'm from a family where men lose their hair early (my big brother started in his teens) but they have always had the sense to keep it 'close to the wood' as my Grampa used to say.
The tell-tale sign is the smoother skin at the top of the forehead. I just hope Ioan goes with it, like say Bruce Willis and Sean Connery, and doesn't take the Elton John route of transplants and plugs, or the Burt Reynolds route of toupes :hide
Paradoxically, I thought the Black Hawk Down look didn't make his naturally tall brow (we call it a Teflon Head here!) seem any taller, and it actually grew on me (if not on him! :happy )
I really think that I could get accustomed to a "sleeker" Ioan, if he chose to take a natural course. My dad has been 'Teflon' nearly all my life and I think there are a lot of very sexy guys out there who "waved" good-bye to their hair long ago! Look at Yul Brennar............Yum!
Oh, I agree that it's all in the styling. But I know losing your hair (or worrying about losing it) can take an emotional toll on guys (women, too), so that just makes me a little sad for him. Maybe he doesn't care or worry about it.
I wonder about that-------is Mr. I a vain man?

:rotf: :happy :rotf:
Oh, you weren't joking?
I think his hair kind of looks like that one picture of his father that was on IOL and he appeared to be an attractive man. Ioan's hair looks pretty thick otherwise so it doesn't appear to me that'll he'll have to go to a full "Bruce Willis". Maybe he'll let his hair grow out and let the curls cover his forehead slightly. I wouldn't mind that.

Just in case there's any question, Shipmate, here's an oldie but a goodie:
Quote from Glamour magazine: "He's an unashamed metrosexual man. "I've always been vain," he told GLAMOUR. 'The Body Shop chain was launched when I was in the fourth year at school and I used to stock up on moisturiser and lip balm, and slick my hair back with really thick gel.'" http://www.glamourmagazine.co.uk/g-guys/default.aspx?id=33235
Thanks so much for THAT!!!!!!! :lol: Perhaps that's why his present coif looks as scarce as it appears of late! (Boy, he'd KILL us if he could read this stuff, wouldn't he??) Who knows?? Maybe he IS!!!!!!!!! :hide2: Bring it on, Boyo, :twisted: :naughty :plotting , bring it on Doll!!!!!
Ioan: "What receding hairline?"
Well done, Captain Sylviane!!!!!!!!! HAHAHAHA!!!! I get a kick out of you sometimes, you know?!
:rotf: Nicely done, Sylviane. Not his best look, but the high forehead is still evident. :dunno
This is beginning to sound like - was it snot or tears dripping from Horatio's nose in Pellew's cabin at the end of The Wrong War/ F & L :dunno

Stevie - put down that :coffee and back away slowly!! :love:
Maybe Ioan could take a lesson from Wiliam Fichtner - his forehead has been big all his life but he's not bald.
And Wentworth Miller is the same age and not receding, and Joe Flanigan (Stargate Atlantis - Col Sheppard) is 40 and very not receding at all either
Thanks for the link to the pics, Annee.
The are certainly from Live Earth (arrival or departures, most likely): not just Ioan and Geri Halliwell have the same clothes on in those pics as on Live Earth stage, but other celebrities caught on the same occasion as well. Plus, the Smart (the car on the background of the pics) was an official sponsor of the event.
Annee, Thank you yet again!
