What a difference a haircut can make... he went from unappealing to freaking hot in a second (to me, anyway).

He looks like Sean William Scott in the second image. And that, to me, is irresistible!

The chicks wanted that hair a little more tamed. He said something to the effect to them in Hollywood. "I don't have a problem with it, you do." I guess when us guys agreed or said something, he reconsidered his "stance."

Let's face it...for me, he could be as bald as a cue ball and I'd still want to jump his bones! LOL, LOL
