He looks a LOT better shaved. Someone needs to have a talk with him.

He is still a great talent.  But Sly gives him more of an edge.  I thought that he had less hair than I do.  So maybe he is wanting to see how much can still grow!

Neither did I.  When he was on Idol there were stories about him shaving due to alopecia and other stories about him having advanced MPB.

I would really hate to go back to the hassle of having hair.  If I could choose from any hairstyle at all, I'm not sure I could find one that was the right look for me.  That was a problem for me before; I could never get my hair cut exactly the way I wanted it and it's not an experience I'd really want to repeat.  If I couldn't be sly, I'd probably just maintain a very short buzz cut -- and if you're going to do that, you might as well take it all off anyway.

Hey all---I am new here but I felt that I had to post on this topic.

Maybe this is what his hair looks like but I am suspicious that he has done something to beef up the front.

The following is the most generous (in terms of hair) picture I have seen of him.  Most others demonstrate much less hair.  If you look he has a small island of hair in the middle surrounded by a deeply receded  hairline.

Yet in his most recent picture he seems to have a rounded-out front hair-line with no evidence of the receded hairline that was evident in his previous piks.  I think that he has done something to round out the front.  The question of course would be why?  Women really seem to dig him.  How does this help him?

He'll be back. 

I agree with Razor -- why deal with the hassle of hair.   Plus based on my experience over the past two weeks -- women definitely like the sly look.   My daughter came home from school today and told me that one of her teachers saw me in the hallway at school and told everyone that I was hot.   She said "ewe dad my teachers think you're hot".     I didn't have the heart to tell her that her teachers comments make me feel good about my decision.

For all of you on the fence who are worried about what others will say about your shaved head -- take it from my personal experience - I haven't had a single negative comment -- and even with a $700 a month hairpiece -- I never had women come up to me and tell me that I looked hot.

He's got a pretty good N/HIII going there--does he think receding hairlines are the new thing?   >:D  But, I've seen several guys who really ignore reality when it comes to the mirror image. 
Title: Re: Daughtry - no longer sly!
Post by: Razor X on February 09, 2010, 03:42:07 PM
I suspect he may have gotten one of those newer hair transplants where they transplant the hair strand by strand instead of using plugs.  I think they take hair from the chest, back and God knows where else.  But this hairline in the Twitter photo doesn't look as receded as the older ones that have been posted here.

I can sort of understand why a celebrity who was starting to lose his hair might want to have this done but I can't understand why someone who was already shaved -- and had made the look his trademark, in fact -- would want to be bothered with something like this. :/O

If his music career stops making big bucks he's going to have one of the strangest hairstyles out there :D, other than normal head hair, secondary hair due to puberty doesn't look that good growing out I would think.  It has a much shorter terminal length, and that terminal length varies all over the body.   And, because  mpb doesn't stop, he's in for a lot of transplanting for a really long time.

Yeah SaintC.  As he ages he might have a Joe Biden.  A floating transplant area in the front, with a bald crown.  It will look weird as hell.  I'm with you guys on this one.  Razor X, I've never heard of a transplant like that, it sounds bizarre.  He obviously had some work done, I wonder if anyone can get a shot of any scars. 

I haven't watch American Idol and don't know much about the dude, but go back sly man!  Clean up your act!

From what I've heard, the theory is that the hair transplanted from elsewhere on the body takes on the characteristics of scalp hair once it's planted on the dome.  I have my doubts about that, though.

Your Joe Biden comment just made me realize that one of the big ironies surrounding a hair transplant is that once you're old enough and bald enough to get one that won't need to be touched up due to further MPB, you're (hopefully) wise and mature enough to no longer want one.   ^-^

It doesn't leave a scar because they take individual follicles diffusely from the back of the head.  This allows you to wear the hair short----

Have to agree with you - those eyebrows on the Twitpic look way too weird, like something that Adam Lambert would have - too feminine for a hard rocker.  Shave the head and get some normal eyebrows.

Despite his hairline still looking like it's receding, it does look like he's had some work done to it.  He still looks better bald though.

I don't think Rogaine works on the hairline, just on the bald spot on the crown.  He's done something, though, because it's not the same hairline that can be seen in earlier pics.

I don't know what to think of this.  On one hand if he has the hair and wants to grow it out go for it.  But on the other hand I always thought he shaved it because of mpb, and I thought he looked great sly.  Him, Willis, Agasi, and the transporter guy always inspired me to go sly because they pulled it off so well.  Either way Daughtry puts out some great music and that's all I care about.

I can't believe this. Just yesterday I saw a picture of him with a soul patch (an older picture) and wanted to copy his look. Maybe he'll alternate between the Caesar cut and being sly. That's what my friend does.
Title: Re: Daughtry - no longer sly!
Post by: stemikger on March 15, 2010, 04:49:58 AM
I'm like some of the other posters, I really didn't think he had that much.  As I said in other posts, I only do my shave once a week and that is what I look like at the end of the week.  That only looks like a weeks worth of hair.

There are some people that clearly look better bald and he is definitely one of them.

Daughtry just launched his new tour, and he's decided to keep the hair.  In interviews, he's talked about how much he really enjoys the change of having hair.  I bet we don't see sly Chris for a long time.

Assuming the picture is real, he has had hair transplants. No way around it. No other way for your hairline to magically "unreceed"

Pinch in and take a break from work this week and play Mr. Dad. Anyway the TV was just tuned into one of those morning shows and low and behold who comes on.....Daughtry.

SO you're all probably asking is Daughtry's hair any longer than it was at that Super Bowl Fest?
The answer....NO! The original Daughtry is BACK. Way to go Chris!  :twisted:

I actually think Chris or one of his consultants read this thread and realized that he was risking losing his cutting edge image if he continued to sport hair. So let's chalk one up for us SLY's in setting Daughtry on the right path to continued success as THE headshaved rocker.  O0

Or that Daughtry came to the realization that sporting a shaved bald head is better than one that's plugged?

agreed..the point to the thread was..BALD was actually his cool rocker edge..no one is saying his voice and band isn't great..just in his case having hair just somehow took away the 'edge'...which maybe not in the real world..but to sell a band (and there are a tone of them)...you have to have a very cool edge...

When I saw Daughtry with that overgrown rug, I knew time would be on our side.  Sooner than later he would realize it was a mistake to go back to the old days of hair.  I attempted that over this past week while I was under the weather and just could bring myself to shave my head.  After 4 days of hair growth, I was seduced by the mirror and thought I should just let my hair grow back.  I failed miserably and painfully. On the 6th day, I realized that to continue with further hair growth would make me unhappy and so I took the razor and began the painful process of exposing that glorious bald look I had become so accustom too and loved.  I am now suffering through the worst irritation, cuts and burns that accompany that first shave.  Today I shave for the second time since that dreadful 6th day and the irritation, cuts and burns are even worst.  I now have to begin that healing process of shaving daily and getting my bald head used to the daily routine again.  Biggest mistake I could have done.  I hoping I learn a very valuable lesson the hard way. I am Bald today, bald tomorrow and thereafter.

The truth of the matter is, if you've kept your dome smooth for any length of time, it is really hard to go back to having hair.  Even if you don't have MPB, hair generally doesn't improve over time, so if you've been bald for a long time, you may find that your hair doesn't look quite as good as you thought it would.  Plus you really miss that smooth feeling.

glad that he shaved his head again, i did go to the concert down in Broomfield (which is a Denver suburb)its about a 45 minute drive for me each way,  couple nights ago, it was my first concert in almost 8 years, i wish he would come up to Budweiser Events Center in Loveland which is a nicer venue over Broomfield Events Center, we dont get many concerts up here in Loveland, and i prefer living in Loveland over the Denver area, the closest airport to me is Denver International Airport which is 65 miles away, we have an airport between Fort Collins and Loveland but no commercial flights

I think the sly looks waaaay better than the thinning look.

Glad to see him shaved again. I found a video here http://baldingisbeautiful.wordpress.com/2010/06/02/chris-daughtry/ where Daughtry admits that he had MPB before video. I don't remember him saying it on the show.

Some guys just look better bald.  He needs to stick with it.
