        Those 2 have not much to do with it, since there are hundreds of millions on people that have neither of those problems in the EU and USA alone and they still age just fine.

          Almost all of them have to work to live somewhat comfortably. They also have to do their own housework and childcare in addition to paid labour, which rich people do not. Both of those, especially in combination, are stressful. Stress ages you.

          Once you get to a certain amount of wealth, you never have to do labour again, paid or otherwise, unless you want to.

          Not to mention that they can’t afford dieticians, personal trainers, aestheticians, etc., as the rich do.

            They absolutely do not need to worry about food and housing. The sample size of these people is gigantic and it simply has nothing to do with it.

          How many of them have exited the rat race and could stop working forever without a problem?

            That is a completely different level of wealth compared to not worrying about food and housing.

    He probably uses dye for the color. As for not balding that’s fully genetic. Some people are blessed with a full head of hair until they die. Others lose it at 20.

        Yeah but we have pictures of the bald muskrat. Ewan I’ve only seen with a shaved head so i don’t think he had any surgeries.

          While I can’t say Ewan can only look this way because of medical intervention, the vast majority of major entertainers have work done in some way to maintain their looks over time and if they keep up with it you would never notice.

          Surgery isn’t the only solution, there are medications, like Finasteride, that actually prevent hair loss by blocking the hormone that causes it. But some people do just have thick gorgeous manes their whole life without help.

      My brother is as bald as the day he was born. I, however, have a wonderful mane. He’s only three years older than I am, but he lost his hair a long time ago.

    Step 1: Be rich enough to afford all the exercise / healthy living.

    Step 2: have a job that has a positive loop to said attractive looks

    Alternatively, compare him from Phantom Menace to Revenge of the Sith. Poor bugger aged 20 years in 6 years.

    I recently had a friend tell me I “don’t age” or “age in reverse.” Something like that. My secret?

    I was way, way fat when I was younger. My head looked like a thumb with vaguely discernible facial features. I was pushing 300 pounds and miserable. Truly hated myself. I steadily lost weight and mostly learned to keep it off (keto was huge, but not totally essential), then slowly added muscle. I’m not jacked. But the net effect is I look less like a puddle of misery than I used to.

    Also Minoxidil! $30 for six-month-plus supply of the Walmart brand and it’s been working better than expected, even at only half the recommended amount.

    It feels intangibly relevant somehow that Alec Guinness was wearing a toupee when he played original Obi-Wan.

    I’m not sure how people here are claiming “genetics” when this is clearly hair implants. Implants are fairly cheap overseas and even cheaper in the States when you’re a multimillionaire (relative to differential in income vs an average person).

    People forget that looking good, investing in yourself, staying in shape and cosmetic procedures are a part of their jobs as actors and they’ll do it just like anybody else doing their jobs.

    People overestimate genetics in most cases, when the answer is really simple: maintenance.

    Botox and filler when done well will keep a person looking younger for longer. So, basically they key is to have money and spend it on your looks. 👍

    My Grandpa died with a full head of hair. On the other hand, I know someone who is mid 20s and already going bald
