I saw this random clip of him during an interview and I couldn't help but notice his hairline was a little sketchy. Did a Google search and I believe he started the Riverdale series dyeing his hair red at like a Norwood 1, and has since recently transitioned to a hair piece full-time because he noticed over the years he started balding.

Photo 1 = his natural hair which looks thin and receding to me at the temples.

Photo 2 = Hair system? This is a from a video of him on Ellen.

I think this transition is fairly recent because most of the photos on Google are clearly him with a natural hairline. However, there are some recent photos where I am left wondering whether it looks 'unnatural' due to the red hair dye or he has recently made the jump to a hair piece before his situation became worse and people would notice.
*He has gone on the record saying he dyes his hair for the series, and this is very obvious from the onset of the show. So it's definitely not a 'wig' for the sake of being an actor. These screenshots posted below are taken of him off the set and in his daily life.

I'm just wondering because this guy is a huge sex symbol and i don't think anyone has ever questioned it... am i tripping or this a hair piece?

First of all, he looks old for his age. Second, he just grew his hair out. Doesn't look like a har piece.

Last, huge sex symbol? For whom? Twitter teenage fangirls?

You're right.. I thought he was like minimum 28 years old. Damn. And okay, I just assumed based on the density but maybe I was mistaken.

Also, yeah - Riverdale was the most watched show on Netflix in many countries during 2018. Girls were/are obsessed with that dude. What do you define as sex symbol? In order to be a sex symbol, you need women who are 30+ to be attracted you ?

You simply can't tell. That is the thing about a modern hair system - if it's well designed, well-cut-in and well maintained you really can't tell. He certainly has very thick hair and a very full hairline. Even if it's mostly natural, it could well be augmented with clip-in hair extensions. That is very common now in the performing industry to create that uber-luxuriant K-Pop look. Or it could be a hair system. Only his 3 full-time hairstylists and 5 make-up artists know for sure.

I know Riverdale was popular, I just don't know who this guy is, never seen any girl I know talking about him. I actually don't know who are the guys considered sexy anymore, it has been always the same artists for years.
