Possibly even more famous than Jude Law’s hairline is that of John Travolta, who went from buzzed and balding to a complete head of hair.
3. Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson
In his interview with Vanity Fair, The Rock explained why he decided to go bald and started shaving his head. Dwayne is like a different person with hair and I just can’t see it. The bald look is definitely his lane.
4. Lance Armstrong
The famous cyclist Lance Armstrong has always kept his hair fairly short. You can see his hairline type has changed from shallow M-shaped hairline to more of a straight hairline.
5. Chris Meloni
The Law and Order SVU star had a famous receding hairline that changed drastically throughout the series. IMHO, he should’ve started the goatee look sooner.

When LeBron James seemed to struggle with his hairline, it was all over the front page of sports entertainment websites and Twitter for a long time. However, he’s since regrown his hairline. Either way, he’s always a first class act.

10. Jesse Martin
Another Law and Order alum makes our list of famous receding hairlines. The ultra likable Jesse Martin has a very deep hairline – even more so when seen on the Flash TV series.
11. Vincent Kartheiser
When Kartheiser took on the world as the persnickety Pete Campbell in Mad Men, we first noticed his hairline was starting to move further back. All good, he looks more distinguished now.

13. Jason Alexander
George Costanza’s famous Rogaine scene in Seinfeld will forever remind us of the way it feels to lose your hair with little options. At least now there are plenty of options for hair regrowth.
