Stuart Heritage reflects on the societal shift regarding baldness, noting how it has transitioned from an accepted part of aging to something many men actively seek to avoid through hair transplants. He discusses personal experiences with balding, noting how societal perceptions have changed. While nearly 55% of men experience hair loss by age 75, the rise of hair transplants has led to fewer bald public figures. Rudi Zygadlo's story illustrates the internal struggles some face with hair loss and how any visual representation of baldness reflects deeper societal and personal battles with aging.
