Jason Stratham with hair

Jason Stratham's cueball head has been another weapon in his tough-guy acting arsenal.
The dome, bottomed by a stubbly chin, helped make us believe he was tough enough to smash through a few layers of brick if necessary and use the cueball to do it.
But as I consider going to see "Revolver," I have to decide if I want to see Stratham with hair.
It just seems wrong.

On the other hand, it's not unattractive by any means.
And I'm quite intrigued.
I must know: Is it real?!?
I am the daughter of a barber, and many times I'd be watching an epidsode of "Mannix" or whatever, and he'd proclaim: "That's a hairpiece."
This radically altered my perception of the world even though the comb-over and then the shaved head rapidly replaced the hairpiece for most men -- with exceptions like Ted Danson.
So I'm peering at Stratham's publicity stills for Guy Ritchie's new movie, and I'm wondering:
Is it real?
No, can't be.
Wait a minute. Could it be?
I may have to go to the movie just to decide whether or not this hair thing works for Stratham and just how much of it is his.
Oh yeah, and it could be a good movie.
