Anthony Hopkins

[NervousNelly]

Anthony Hopkins must have had some FUE work done. He has a hairloss pattern of a NW6-7 but still has a decently outlined hailine. This is not typical in a normal hairloss pattern but his hair does indeed look natural.

 

Any word on who did his work?

maybe it's just a hair piece. a lot of the older hollywood actors use them. I can think of a few right off the top of my head, John Travolta, Billy Bob Thorton, Samuel Jackson...etc.

I never thought about that one before. He does seem to have a lot of different looks in his many roles over the years, although he seems to specialize in playing sinister characters. I guess I always attributed it to the makeup and possibly hairsystems worn for different roles. As a matter of fact I just saw him in a preview tonight for an upcoming movie and he was unrecognizable except for his distinctive voice. So it's hard to tell what is really him and what is done for the part.

Ofcourse with actors it is always hard to assess because many times they will wear a hairpiece or have hair "added" just for the specific role that they are in. I think that Anthony Hopkins has had work done because he always has a hairline yet very sparse everywhere and his crown looks like that of a NW6-7. Even in Silence of the Lambs he had his hair slicked back and nothing in mid to crown area. If indeed he did have a HT it is very age appropriate and natural.

Nervous Nelly,

 

I concur that your assessment is right on target. The last time I remember seeing him outside of his movies was one of the awards shows. Gwineth Paltrow paid tribute to him subsequent to the movie they were in together where he played a mathematician or scientist. His hair was very white, close cropped, and yes he did have the bald spot in the crown.

 

Like all of us, his appearance has changed with age. He's been around for decades and it's been at least 15 years since the original "Silence of the Lambs". He must be in his 70's now.
