Anthony Carrigan, straight outta Massachusetts, has basically made a name for himself by stealing every scene he’s in. Most folks know him as Noho Hank—the oddly lovable Chechen mobster with a wild fashion sense—in HBO’s “Barry.” Seriously, if you’ve seen the show, you get it; the guy’s hilarious and somehow manages to make a criminal seem like a cinnamon roll. Before he was Hank, though, Carrigan was already popping up all over TV, turning heads as the unsettling Victor Zsasz in Fox’s “Gotham” (you know, the hitman who’s way too cheerful about his job), and as Kyle Davies on ABC’s “The Forgotten.” The dude’s got range—he’s shown up on “The Flash,” “The Blacklist,” and even “Parenthood” back in the day. But it’s not just the acting chops that make Carrigan interesting. He’s been dealing with alopecia areata since he was three, which basically means his immune system decided hair was overrated. By 30, he was totally bald, and honestly, he rocks the look. Instead of hiding it, he’s gone all in—using his platform to push body positivity and human rights. Not a lot of actors out there are this open about stuff that’s actually personal. He’s turned what could’ve been a setback into this empowering, “own your weirdness” kind of vibe. At this point, Carrigan isn’t just some guy you recognize from TV—he’s basically the poster child for owning your quirks and turning them into superpowers.
He’s got this rare kind of alopecia, right? It hit him pretty hard as he got older—by the time he was in his twenties, most of his hair had just vanished. At first he tried to cover it up, messing around with hats, probably a few awkward comb-overs, maybe even some of those miracle hair products they always advertise on late-night TV. Didn’t help much. Eventually, he just gave up on the whole charade and started shaving his head clean. Honestly, it’s kind of badass. There’s something freeing about just embracing it, you know? No more hiding, no more feeling self-conscious every time you walk past a mirror or someone cracks a joke. It’s like he just decided to own his look, and after a while, nobody even remembered what he looked like with hair. That smooth dome kind of became his signature, and suddenly it's more “him” than anything else ever was.
