Title: John Travolta is FINALLY sly!

I think it's for an upcoming role, but it's the best he's looked in years... let's hope he takes a page from Yul Brynner's book and keeps it!

Sweet.  Way to go Travolta.
I could have sworn, the last few times I've seen him, he's been wearing a system.  Anybody know anything about this?

What a hoot, we just finished watching him in Hairspray, and here he is Sly, what a change!  I guess you could say "The Blade makes the Man!" ;D ;D ;D

I think he looks great.  I would have never thought John T..a guy who had a fascination for his hair could ever pull it off.   Hope he continues to keep the look.  Good luck John...

He looks awesome bald...he should have done it years ago...

maybe he'll come to his senses and know bald look better than his rugs (yes he changes them for different styles).

Nice find Snowpeck! O0

Contrary to some of the things you've recently read around here..

it's not breaking any rules saying a dude should shave his head or looks better with it shaved..

because it's the truth bro!

BTW this is a headshaving forum...you can promote that here! ;)

He does look great, a bit badass too.

But I also think there may be some makeup involved, as is usual for movie roles.
I mean, look at his goat.
You know his hair is not lacking gray, and the color is too uniform.

It could be a bald cap.  They can do about anything in Hollywood.  If he did extended shooting for the film it would be easier to shave it then spend hours getting the bald cap and makeup right, so maybe he really did shave it.  Us mere mortals can only guess.

If ABBA were to sing a song about being sly, it would go like this...."ohhhh see that dome, watch it glow, dig in the sly dancing gnome!"

Is he doing a remake of Grease?! :D

It's got groove, it's got meaning,
Sly is the time is the place is the motion,

No, I think it's probably shaved with some make-up applied to cover the shadow.  This video shows how they conceal the shadow:

Great vid, but did I hear him say, "If it stopped growing I'd freak out?"  Bummer. 
But, Memo to Santa, two shaving babes please.
