No, I think it looks good, and now I see the 2nd image.

Didn't know if he looks too much like a kid in the new one.

i would personally make the hair darker. easy way is burn tool with midtones selected on a very low strength. and be careful wont take much to make it wrong

Ok, I kinda see what you mean, thanks. It looks like there is still too much scalp coming through the bald spot.

[HillyBill]

tried it and yea a very very low setting. but it works well

Made it look natural

[Digital4Hue]

Yes you did, I like that.

Mate, always leave a little bit of the original on view, it adds to the realism. What you did was very good, but in my opinion to glossy magazine type, not the natural photo effect i think you was after?
Glad you liked it anyhow.

Very good job! He doesen´t look like a kid, but you have made him look about ten years younger, from 30-something to 20-something.
