EE: How has Billy kept his hair?

Looks like he should have gone bald years ago.

I watched EastEenders the other day and his hair was thicker than ever.

Perry Fenwick, what's your secret, mate?

A friend of mine went bald at 19, and is now getting tattooed hair follicles, costing £2,000. :o Against my advice. :)

    phil and Grants baldness obviously stems from their mothers side of the family. Archie and Clive both had hair, as does Billy. I suspect Peggy is bald herself under those wigs she wears.

    Its all about good nutrition. The actor must take some degree of care of himself, getting the right protein and vitamins and not being in the sun too long.

    I think PF has had a hair transplant.

    You're acting like he's 75! He's only 52! He's got years until he starts losing his hair. That's common sense!

    Not common sense at all, take a look around, it is young men who lose their hair.

    That is why the trend for shaved heads has been such a God send for those of us who lost our hair in our 20's. ;-)

    Not all men lose their hair at the same time, or even at all. My father is 74 and still has most of his hair, he's only just starting to lose it at the front.

    Bald at 19? :o
    Wow :o
    Seriously?! :o 19?! :o

    Well, it depends on your genes. Some people have hereditary baldness meaning they inherit it genetically from their father or grandfather and start losing their hair rapidly as they approach a certain age (from my experience late 20s/early 30s). Others go bald later in life as part of natural aging. So it's likely that Perry Fenwick didn't inherit hereditary baldness, hence why he's been able to keep his hair intact for a long time.

    My father was 80 & had a thick head of hair. Wifes grandad was 92 when he died & hair also thick & full. Im in 50s & if I let it grow hair is thick & full as it ever was, prefer a no 1 cut on it though.

    Yeah Billy's hair was definitely thinner when he was married to Little Mo.

    His hair was receding and thinning, nothing to do with length/allowing it to grow.

    I remember speculation in the media that he had had a hair transplant so that's the theory I am sticking with.

    Quite narrow minded.

    It could've been a reaction to medication, a disease or something drug-related. If he has had a hair transplant, then so what? I don't think it's something worth moaning over and definitely isn't a thread-quality subject.

    I didn't say it was a problem, but my answer is relevant to the OP. :)
