What did Dave think of it? None of us matter if Dave actually appreciated the (albeit minimal, noncommittal) gesture

Yeah this is between them. Leave them alone or offer support. Negativity won't help anything
don't put it on Twitter if you don't want people seeing it and possibly talking shit. it's not between them anymore. social media has fucked people's brains, main character syndrome.
If it was between them they wouldn't be posting it on social media
It's fun to take pics with my friends and share online.
I would like to point out that actors are usually contractually obligated to maintain a specific appearance. Stamos may literally have not been able to shave his head in solidarity, so while seemingly noncommittal I think there could be more to the gesture. As you say, Dave is the only authority on the matter either way.

Being mad about this instead of Dave Coulier "dating" Alanis Morisette when he was in his 30s and she was 17 is like being mad at Obama about wearing a tan suit and not all the drone bombings or mass-deportations.
We're bad at picking what to be pissed about.
Well you say that, but this Stamos guy is a fucking asshole, why didn't he simply go rogue and shave his head and shutdown whatever production he is working on while his hair grows back, like those people working on it with him can take a few months without pay
This was my first thought. I bet his hair has itβs own contract and he couldnβt break it.

Having been forced to make a gesture at gun point a bald cap remained his only option
You oughta know.
Ironic.
It really did rain on my wedding day and I did not see the irony of the situation. We were inside so it really wasn't a problem.
It was forecasted to rain on my wedding day and my wife nearly died, so I bought seven purple umbrellas and one big white umbrella so they could take pictures in the rain. It didn't rain until after pictures. Is that irony?
Even our photos were inside because we got married in this sort of high-end mall that was on the courthouse square and had a giant ballroom at the top floor. We had the ceremony and reception there, and there was a very pretty fountain on the ground floor where we did the pictures.
My brother also got married in a ballroom. In Alabama. In view of the "First White House of the Confederacy." We are not Southerners but his wife is. It was also a Gone With the Wind themed wedding. They claim they have no racial prejudices but after that, it was pretty hard to buy. And that was before the day my brother decided to post to everyone on Facebook that he would yell the N-word when he was alone in his car because it was transgressive. (But he doesn't do it to be racist, he swears!)
Really looking forward to visiting him in Atlanta in a couple weeks. I haven't seen him in 10 years and was hoping to keep it that way, but my mom is elderly and won't take a plane and so I'm driving her. At least I'm going to be staying with friends instead of him.
Sorry, I needed to rant for a second.

I really don't care about either of these men, but they seem like they're having fun and nobody that matters seems to care that he wore a bald cap instead of shaving his head. In fact, it kinda seems like that's the joke...
I wonder if they can cut it out.
John checking his xitter replies like "oh mylanta π©"
cutting out fake drama? they can't, they crave it.
Ok, I kinda get it. His looks are his living, without those he has nothing. But seeing as that is the case, he might have found another way to support his friend rather than an empty, performative stunt.
rather than an empty, performative stunt.
looks to me both parties are enjoying themselves in the photo, doesn't look empty or performative at all. if Dave Coulier was cool with it, thats all that matters imo
Isn't shaving one's head an "empty performative stunt"? It doesn't provide any benefit to the cancer patient.
I don't think so if you're fond of your hair. Even if it grows back, it's a symbolic sacrifice in solidarity--a nice firm hug. A bald cap feels like a limp hug or a pat on the head.
Not that anyone should feel obligated to shave their head, but one major thing is that his hair is literally his livelihood. He may be under contract not to change his appearance, and shaving one's head (especially at that age) might do permanent damage.
I doubt that Dave would want John to shave his head. But they're good friends, and our opinion from the sidelines doesn't really matter that much.

I'm gonna give Stamos the benefit of the doubt as say maybe he needs the hair for work. No seriously. He's an actor, their appearance and image are work relevant.
I see nothing wrong with doing a gesture in support of a friend.
I think what people see as wrong with it is these sorts of gestures are usually actually shaving your hair off in support. As a way of saying you're in this together and there to support the individual. This method comes off as disingenuous because you can just take the cap off and go back to your normal life, the other person can't.
Ultimately it's between them, but if you're going to publicize it. It comes off as shallow and an attempt at making yourself a part of someone else's illness
So what youβre supposed to cut your arm off to support a one armed friend?
Cut it out!
Hehe, βcut it outβ. Hehe.
Well if it grew back like hairβ¦.
Right. Iβm calling out the person in the screenshot who compared it to arms.

Look at his hairline. He's balding anyway so just gave it a try to see if he likes it. Made a PR campaign out of it, end of story
A. Who gives a fuck if Stamos didn't actually shave his head.
B. Fuck Dave Coulier.

I think when you're probably shooting (as in filming) stuff you can't just shave your head in the middle of an ongoing project.
Otherwise I'd agree with the sentiment he should actually shave his hair but in this specific circumstance it doesn't feel disingenuous.
Guess he really is paranoid about his hair
He's got a great head of hair. My wife thinks he's a bit of a nutter though, but in a good, nice way.

Maybe he expected the fans to have mercy on him.
I wish I looked as good bald as they do. I have a head as lumpy as an overripe orange.
Better than a raspberry!
Very true! I look like an overripe fruit and I smell as though that fruit were a durian.
Which is considered a delicacy in some places. All about knowing your people.

This reminds me of that reddit story about a mom who was pissed and went off on a hair stylist who wouldn't shave his head for her daughter who had cancer
