David Schwimmer Attempts Justin Bieber Hair - And Fails

Oh, this isn't good.

Just when designer Thakoon Panchigul told Menswear magazine that the Justin Bieber 'do is a definite "don't," here comes David Schwimmer wearing the shameful shag.

The 43-year-old actor -- 43!!! -- was seen sporting the 16-year-old's signature coif at a Shakespeare in the Park production of "The Merchant of Venice" at NYC's Delacorte Theater.

43!!!

Sorry. But if 32-year-old New England Patriot/model Tom Brady couldn't pull off Bieber bangs -- and trust us, he couldn't ("I think the Justin Bieber look is a little too young for him," Sandy Poirier of South Boston's Shag Salon told the Boston Herald of Brady) -- no man approaching middle age should even consider it an option.

Forty-three-year-old Schwimmer (sorry, that number bears repeating) resisted getting The Rachel during his "Friends" days, so it seems strange that he's suddenly started chasing hair trends now.

If he must copy a current coif, we'd much rather he stick to the shorter Moe -- which has seen been seen in recent months on everyone from Lady Gaga to Rihanna -- and leave the Bieber look to the kids.

In related sad men's style news, read about the Speedo making a comeback.

RB, I was thinking the exact same thing. The only thing similar about the haircut is the length.

That isn't a new style that kid has. It's what all guys had in the '70's.

Since when is wind blown hair a copy of someone else's hair style? Mark Marino, I think you are attracted to this Bieber kid. It really is borderline creepy! You need to grow up!

Liz, you are absulutely correct. Only thing missing is the moustache. Many young kids are emulating this style. Must have got it from their Dads.
I like Schwimmer's curly do.

I don't think the hairdo looks alike, actually I believe they are opposites, one is flipped (wavy) and the other one is "bobbed"
(and completely straight).

And, by the way, that was the way kids wore their hair a long time ago, back in the 70's. It was the style and in those days if kids didn't follow the style they would take a lot of mocking and laughing at in school. Well, it might still be the same way these days too, which I believe it's very saddening and not fair to children who can then grow up with all kinds of deep-seated inferiority complexes.

David Schwimmer looks great. I'm so tired of these arbitrary rules about what people can wear at different ages. If anything, the older I get the more it is MY decision what the heck I wear and how I do my hair. Our nation has turned into one big snarky highschool. Grow up!

Speaking for myself, this look is nowhere...

It's an a**hole look...

DS is trying too hard to be hip, it seems...

Hip is style, not fashion...
