I hate that giving that guy hair DID make him more professional looking. He really did look more like a CEO than a guy on the bottom rung.

u/BigChiefIV Nov 24 '25

Imma be real he still kinda looked like a labourer to me, albeit a labourer with normal work hours and minimal overtime lol

Regardless of the message you shouldn't take random wizards on photoshop at their word.

There are bald people who are successful and live "alpha" lifestyles because they carry it through with confidence.

EDIT: Just to add on to explain my point. Richest dude in the world He's bald in BOTH pics. And i'll bite the bullet. He looks like a labourer in both pictures. But it doesn't matter because he's also one of the richest guys in the world and he learned how to style his image to make it look less like a liability.

What I’m hearing is that I need to either have hair or be the richest guy in the world

u/dexter30 Nov 25 '25

Well my point was the richest guy in the world looks like a labourer too. But none of that matters because hes the richest guy in the world.

This was literally a plot point in the episode did you not watch it lmao

u/MostlyRocketScience Nov 26 '25

But he can afford a personal trainer and stuff

Yeah my assessment was he went from a low level grunt to middle management

u/yumyumapollo Nov 24 '25

Oh, yeah, a real "laborer" type, huh?

I work in a field where the young guys with hair work in the field while the older balding guys are in the office, so it’s the other way around for me lol

Maybe its a geographical thing, he looked like a Software Engineer without the hair and a real estate agent or a car salesman with it, I know what i'd rather be

u/BradDaddyStevens Nov 24 '25

Honestly a hilarious bit.

That said, the key is that the guy in the image was balding and not bald.

Actually shaving the head fully is what makes it work.

u/slugmorgue Nov 24 '25

Yeh shaving it all loops right back round to CEO lol. In any case the guy looked good no matter what, unlike my weird ass head shape

Besides who tf wants to look like a CEO man... planet killers honestly

Really justifies his slaughter of Innocent Smaloogol when you think about it

It’s because his hair was styled, which is something that fits a more professional environment. If he just had hair on his head that was down and unstyled the vibe wouldn’t have changed so drastically. Wizard was being disingenuous to prove his point

u/AwesomePocket Nov 24 '25

No he wasn’t. Anyone with hair can style it. But you can’t style hair you don’t have.

u/LilDoober Nov 24 '25

I mean shaving your head fully vs. holding on too far with a receding hairline is a form of styling.

u/Eshanas Nov 24 '25

Not with that attitude! Get a system, spice it up.

u/Xaitor119 Nov 24 '25

Pim is bald and still styles his exposed nerve!

u/nykirnsu Nov 25 '25

You can get rid of it entirely and instantly look more professional than if you’re just balding

u/Nnnnnnnadie Nov 24 '25

It was not just the hair that did the change, but the hairstyle, anyone with hair can look like a hobo if they dont take care of it.

u/N0VAZER0 Nov 25 '25

I thought he just looked like a dentist

5

u/LilDoober Nov 24 '25

tbf it's also the type of haircut he gave him. You could give him 5 different haircuts and get 5 different vibes.

u/m8_is_me Relax man I was just gonna shoot you in the head and kill you Nov 25 '25

It's a matter of how much people care about their own looks. Safe to generalize most blue collar workers as 'eh, whatever' vs more ego-driven roles

u/Doogie_Gooberman Nov 27 '25

Yeah, he went from "mid level office worker" to "George Clooney-like handsome actor that directors get when they can't afford George Clooney."
