I think he was less uptight about the toup in the beginning before his career went downhill after Star Trek. <br /><br />I think once that happened he became insecure about growing older without maybe having achieved as much as he thought he would while having lost his marriage and while facing his aging appearance. Maybe all of this compounded any insecurity he had about balding & made him more uptight about his toup.murtnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1249569588037368037.post-16242359415081946512010-08-01T00:43:03.778+02:002010-08-01T00:43:03.778+02:00Here are some of John Wayne's private films wi...Here are some of John Wayne's private films without him wearing a toup and his philosophy of toupee wearing.
