      Yes he joked and said, yes its true, all those beautiful locks of blond hair are all gone and wont be coming back. haha His hair loss is probably due to stress. His career tanked, he caught his scumbag longtime girlfriend cheating on him in the Bahamas, and then she had the gall to sue him for money and Peter had to hired an attorney, his manager ripped him off, he was walking the streets of LA looking for session work in the 80s, His childhood friend DAvid Bowie felt so bad for him he offered him a job touring with him as his guitarist and then what money he had left and made touring with Bowie he lost in the stock market crash of 87. His hair was showing signs of thinning and he was teasing it up for the Bowie tour. Gotta give Peter credit, Through it all he still manages to have a smile on his face and laughs it off.

      Yeah that takes some guts. Sadly it's an unfortunate risk us males have to run. Women can get away with so much more. Wigs (Tina Turner and Cher) bras to make their tits look bigger and shapelier, shoes to make them look taller, clothes that pull their arses in and up, clothes that pull their guts in. Basically it's cheating.
      A male wearing anything like that would ridiculed.

      Actually, I notice that my hair is thinning and falling away. What I don’t like is having a cold head. Let’s not forget that when you’re older, you must avoid the flu, COVID-19, pneumonia, and all respiratory threats.
      Our immunity system isn’t as strong. As a black guy, the fur on my head maintains my body heat, baby. I’ll do something to keep my fur. If I can do it gracefully. Otherwise, I’ll gather my hair-keeping scientists and take it from there.
      Until things work themselves out, it’s back to the damn ball cap or something. Good thing my genetics have never commanded flowing, blowing in the wind, as the “answer.” I remember my friend from Soundgarden, Hiro, mentioning Kim Thyl losing his hair. Last I saw Kim in pictures, he was rocking a long, grey, father-of-time beard style. It looked way cool, better than ZZ Top. What’s up, Kim. JC

      Both him and Paul should just rock the bald look. It looks pathetic when aging rockstars wear a wig and still try to keep the long haired look. Especially now that they've retired. Also, they could have kept performing as Kiss without having to mask up. They did that for twelve years from 1983 to 1995 and they killed it. They could have easily done that again in their final years as a band and it would have looked more authentic.

I saw Page/ Plant in 95 and had really good seats i was blown away by Plant with that much hair in his 50s, Saw Plant again 10 years later and geez still had it. At 60 I am still blessed to have my hair but a bout with chemo really thinned it and I realize it ain't gonna make it much longer, I am grateful to all the guys in these comments saying just be yourself, it does help to know it's not the end of the world.

We are in ideal times for not witnessing strangers gawking. So much is now sort of odd with hair having very unnatural color or people are going through chemo treatments. I think commercials, promoting hair products, influence many to feel bad about hair loss. The hair product models always are showing fantastic hair. Just an aside re how far we’ve come with acceptance: while cleaning out my grandmothers chest of drawers, I found a tiny book probably printed when the printing press was newly invented, and the title of the book was about a woman’s hair being her most important asset!

As for these rock stars they are using cheap wigs from the 70's. If youre single get a invisible poly. Not sure the name but the hairs look like they are growing out of you. Yeah! Very real!

If he weren't so obsessed with trying not to be Jewish he'd have had a Jewfro before he went with a roadkill hair transplant. He had a Jewfro as a teen though.

    I was in a power/prog metal band back in the late 80's - mid 90's. I started losing my hair when I was 21, in 1993. It really sucked because I had long hair that stopped about 5 inches above my waist. I wore hats everywhere because it was embarrassing, not only to be that young and losing my hair, but also because back then baldness was not as much an accepted look like it is today. Playing live, I would wear a bandana over the top of my head. Once I accepted it, I cut my hair short because I didn't want to be the guy with a skullett, who refused to let it go. Skulletts look horrendous.

    I had long hair until I was 18. I cut it, got married, job, kids etc. In that time I always shaved my head for the most part. I'm now 55 and since my wife passed away 5 years ago I've grown my hair out again. It's as long as when I was a teenager now but I'm losing it just in the crown of my head. The front is still fine. Debating on whether to get the cream or just shave it again.... I told myself after my wife died I'd never cut it again. Definitely a tough decision.
