An interesting new look for our boy. I know some people will groan, but I like to keep an eye on what this guy is doing. He hasn't always looked uniformly good, but in recent years (perhaps in response to the rumours about his hair) his piece has been convincing and well styled.

Of particular interest to me is that he clearly has a problem with diminishing temples and thinning sides, and it is interesting to see how a guy who presumably has access to the best wig-makers and hair stylists in the world deals with that. Until recently, he seemed to be doing a "Mr Burns"-style forward sweep of his piece hair to fill in the gap left by his receding temples. In this photo, though, he seems to have given up on that, and has a "Reubin"-style thick piece on top with almost shaved sides. You can clearly see the extent of his temple-loss, and the top of his hair looks very heavy by comparison, and yet the piece overall looks good and not unbalanced. It is almost as if subconsciously your brain thinks: no one would wear a piece that thick with side-hair that thin unless it was real.
