Boris Kodjoe is reflecting fondly on the days when he had a full head of hair. The former daytime soap opera star shared a flashback photo on Instagram as well as a lengthy call to action to those still clinging onto their thinning hairlines.
“Yep…go ahead, you can say it. Scream if you want to….I had HAIR!!!! 🕺🏾😊👍🏽Granted it was a long time ago and it left me for good right around the time I became a father,” Kodjoe said on Instagram Wednesday, Nov. 28. “But I fought for it, pretended it was still there even though my hairline receded faster than I could color it in with #mascara or other USELESS anti-balding remedies. #Sharpie #OnlyForMen #HairFibers #FillInPowder #Serum yes, I did it all!! And was convinced no one would notice…BUT THEY ALL KNOW YOU’RE DOING IT….EVERYONE KNOWS!!!!
And in the end… I cried 😫😢….and learned to say goodbye. And eventually I embraced my #BaldNsexy. 😉😁
“Tag SOMEBODY YOU LOVE and who needs to LET IT GO!!!! 😉😁 #HairDontCare #LEDDIGOOOOO 😁👏🏾🕺🏾,” he added.

A quick search of the phrase “Boris Kodjoe hair” reveals several photos of the “Station 19” actor with various stages of hair loss — including one photo where he apparently tried to mitigate his hair loss with a spray of some sort.

His PSA was heard loud and clear and fans did as they were told and answered Kodjoe’s call.

“You’re a handsome man either way.”
