Happy 80th Birthday Patrick Stewart
Sir Patrick Stewart (Captain Picard) of Star Trek fame is an outstanding actor and seems to be a great human being. More relevant to us, he is a hair loss sufferer who was traumatized by his premature early onset balding at age 19. Today is Mr. Stewart’s 80th birthday.

Patrick Stewart on his Hair Loss Trauma
It is rare for a celebrity to be as open as Patrick Stewart about the turmoil experienced by his or her hair loss. Most celebrities of that era got hair transplants or hair systems (e.g., Elton John or John Travolta). However, Mr. Stewart made the bald look cool even before basketball legend Michael Jordan did it in the late 1980s.
