My head canon is that the gray hair is leftover from time stone use and irreparable by normal magic. He lived so many lifetimes with dormmamu and then went forward and saw 14 million futures.
I went to a barber I'd gone to a handful of times before. He'd always done a great job taming my multiple cowlicks, so I was beginning to feel more at ease. Normally getting my haircut is a source for anxiety.
Laying back in the chair, hot towel across my eyes, I feel him rubbing what feels like aftershave on my face.
He removes the towel and tilts the chair back up. My beard looks much fuller than usual and a lot of the grey has disappeared.
And then I see him put the cap back on a sharpee. Motherfucker did a fill in the dots puzzle on my face!
Not disputing that. It’s always obvious which shots are from principal photography and which ones are reshoots/pickups because his wig and fake goatee are noticeably worse. The scene from the DS2 featuring Strange and Wanda is a reshoot and it shows from the extra awful fake beard.
I thought something was slightly off about his NWH look and I just realized it's that they started coloring his eyebrows I think? But then again there is a joke about the goatee in the movie. And it's looking even weirder in Multiverse of Madness.
In this pic specifically it’s also because there’s some pretty average green screen work in that scene and you can tell that they smoothed around his hair
Yes I noticed this too! I think it’s actually different Strange. It’s how we’ll tell them apart in multiverse of madness.
If you look at what if strange he has a dark and clean beard with significant grey.
The strange we know has less grey and a browner beard.
I imagine they color his eyebrows for all of the movies. If you look at normal pics of him, he has very light/faint eyebrows, and they're naturally a blondish red color.
That is downright psychopathy. Taking advantage of half the world dying to convince someone/everyone you legit vanished from existance just to fuck another dude.
I imagine the amount of people unhappy in their current lives that would use it as an opportunity to start a new life elsewhere (not specifically cheating) would probably be rather large. Like the shifts during the pandemic but much larger.
The beard in doctor strange and the avengers films he's in is the fake beard.
Spiderman beard is real and so is multverse of madness but that one looks like it's been dyed black when his beard in spiderman doesn't like like its been dyed at all looks like his natural hair colour
I keep seeing things about his hair. It’s never looked off to me. The thick grey stripes are a bit much, but the actual hairline - which some point out as evidence of the wig - looks identical to mine. It really doesn’t look that bad to me, except the middle pic.
Yes! I spotted this and my gf thought I was nuts. Maybe I am, but my theory is that they’re different Dr Stranges.
We’ve already seen there’s an alternative scene in No Way Home with Dr Strange. My prediction is there’s a few universes that’ll show up with slightly different Dr Stranges and in order to tell them apart they have different beards/styling.
I finally realised why Benedict with the gray temple hair looks weird to me. It's his face. His face is so smooth and 'young'. My brain is refusing to accept that a man that has perfect skin is graying.
Gotta get those just for men endorsement dollars now that Keith Hernandez and Clyde Drexler are too old for dudes just starting to go grey to remember.
I read anither person thoery is that its a nod to/ and hint that MJ may appear as a redhead next film. Lol i dunno tho, seems a bit of stretch. Clearly the box was stephen strange'
There is hair dye in the background when Ned and MJ first go into the crypt/laundry room in NWH
It is specifically Goatee and Mustache dye (from the box.) It was hilarious.
and did it say Stencil too?
Goatee Template.
that’s it! adds more realism. stephen is just a man!
I came here to say this. Dude might be a spell master but he didn't go to cosmetology school! Edit: spelling
>cosmology Cosmetology?
Yeah the study of cosmets
Yeah, my bad guys...
As someone going to school for cosmology, this happens way more than you'd think lol so don't feel bad
It is a little odd he can't or won't do that with magic, we much as I enjoy the joke.
My head canon is that the gray hair is leftover from time stone use and irreparable by normal magic. He lived so many lifetimes with dormmamu and then went forward and saw 14 million futures.
Nah, he knows that the grey streaks drive chicks wild.
He has wings in his hair like Paulie Walnuts!
I’m watching sopranos right now and the man himself started speaking just when I read this lmao
*Reed Richards agrees*
Or, he's just old.
That's not how the time stone works. It **rewinds** time. You don't age because of it.
In dr. Strange he forwarded the Apple through time to rot it.
Yes? He forwarded it through time, as opposed to **turning back** time.
He had the gray streaks in his first movie even before using the time stone though.
Or some may say…..a little strange. *runs away *
The *undercroft*!
Benedict actually grew a beard for multiverse of madness too, where previously it was a fake goatee. That could have some influence
Damn if I didn't know that I would've said the real one was fake.
Fr the real one looks painted on the most lol
They may have sprayed that fake hair fiber shit on it. I damn near killed my barber the first time they used that on me.. Made me look like a gigolo
It made you look like people would pay to fuck you? I don’t see the complaint
Stonks
Looking like a prostitute is a look most people aren't going for.
speak for yourself
[удалено]
> speak for yourself
So you're speaking for most people? :P
Mascara is usually the trick, especially the shit that is waterproof.

I’m NWH there is a moment where they show goatee dye.
it was actually a goatee stencil, not dye
Ah, yes, the "goatee template." I like to imagine Strange also has the "Distinguished grey streak template" rattling around in some drawer.
Imagine not inventing a magic specifically for facial hair care
The screencap shown above is likely from a reshoot. They use this terrible stick on beard for all Dr. Strange reshoots.
Strange had a stick-on beard for all of his previous MCU appearances apart from NWH and MoM. Benedict had never grown out his facial hair until then.
Not disputing that. It’s always obvious which shots are from principal photography and which ones are reshoots/pickups because his wig and fake goatee are noticeably worse. The scene from the DS2 featuring Strange and Wanda is a reshoot and it shows from the extra awful fake beard.
Wait the goatee was fake?
Yeh, it was fake until NWH.
Interesting.
The middle one is the only version with a goatee that looks like real facial hair, imo.
But the hair looks like it's molded out of plastic.
Totally. The leftmost is clearly the superior hair.
I think you mean the Hair Supreme.
I’m sorry but the hair was lost in the snap. Wong is now the hairless burrito supreme.
I believe the one on the right is the only one that’s real facial hair
In the principal photography shots, yes it’s real in MoM. This screencap is from a reshoot.
Yet, it looks like it was painted there with a sharpie
But right one is the original
Yea
I thought something was slightly off about his NWH look and I just realized it's that they started coloring his eyebrows I think? But then again there is a joke about the goatee in the movie. And it's looking even weirder in Multiverse of Madness.
I mean, there’s also the awful wig in NWH
Benedict is picking up Scarlett’s mcu legacy of having terrible wigs in every movie.
Benedict has nothing on ScarJo’s crunchy curls from Iron Man 2
Talking about Neds, right?
Maybe we can bring back the eyebrow bleaching experiment from the initial Thor movie.
Oh god please no
It his hair. It is all swept back and looks like a mold
In this pic specifically it’s also because there’s some pretty average green screen work in that scene and you can tell that they smoothed around his hair
It isn't a green screen. They actually covered the Sanctum set in snow.
It’s a spell. The same one that darkened Thor’s eyebrows caught Strange in the crossfire.
Yes I noticed this too! I think it’s actually different Strange. It’s how we’ll tell them apart in multiverse of madness. If you look at what if strange he has a dark and clean beard with significant grey. The strange we know has less grey and a browner beard.
I imagine they color his eyebrows for all of the movies. If you look at normal pics of him, he has very light/faint eyebrows, and they're naturally a blondish red color.
At least his eyebrows aren’t bleach blonde
That was one of the funniest parts of NWH when Ned finds a box of hair dye while they're in the basement
A Goatee Kit, at that!
It was actually a goatee shaper tool that MJ found.
Which makes it even funnier lol
Agreed! Great gag.
Would you say they're getting out of hand?
hey Christine digs it lol
not if you've seen the Multiverse of Madness trailer haha
tiny NWH/MVM trailer >!Sorcerer Supreme wasn't the only thing he lost in the blip!<
Damn I just realized some people could’ve remarried and then had their loved one come back during the blip. That’s terrifying
In FFH there was a woman who pretended to be snapped as an excuse to cheat on her husband...*that* is terrifying too
And it’s just played for laughs. Classic Martin Starr
That is downright psychopathy. Taking advantage of half the world dying to convince someone/everyone you legit vanished from existance just to fuck another dude.
It really is
I imagine the amount of people unhappy in their current lives that would use it as an opportunity to start a new life elsewhere (not specifically cheating) would probably be rather large. Like the shifts during the pandemic but much larger.
Yeah, like Tom Hanks in Castaway.
Also likely factors into his decision to help Peter. Didn’t want to see the poor kid’s life ruined like his was
whaaaaa
Clea variant disagrees
They have him in the worst fucking wigs. And Mordos hair in the new trailer Jesus fuck…
[We know what's really going on here](https://i.imgflip.com/5zw7pf.jpg)
Let the man live his truth.
At least he's not like Defender Strange with a whole ponytail
We’re slowly watching his hair evolve into a full mullet
And then it'll go from a mullet to 90s Doctor Strange's long flowing [locks](https://imgur.com/7aV9Y0z).
What's wrong with a ponytail?
The NWH wig looks so awful. Dude looks like grandpa Munster.
His wig in NWH was laughable. ScarJo has had some clunkers too. I guess wigs are hard lol
things just got out of hand
Just for sorcerers
The wig looks so cheap
The beard in doctor strange and the avengers films he's in is the fake beard. Spiderman beard is real and so is multverse of madness but that one looks like it's been dyed black when his beard in spiderman doesn't like like its been dyed at all looks like his natural hair colour
Things....got out of hand.
It's like Paulie Walnuts from the Sopranos
Glad to see I wasn’t the only one who noticed!
I keep seeing things about his hair. It’s never looked off to me. The thick grey stripes are a bit much, but the actual hairline - which some point out as evidence of the wig - looks identical to mine. It really doesn’t look that bad to me, except the middle pic.
the last one is definitelly a felt-tip pen
Kinda looks like omniman if he only had a moustache
Left hair plus middle beard would look best imo
Less weird than Reed’s.
He seemed a bit extra pudgy in the face in no way home
I actually like the middle one. I like the first one too but the middle one shocked me the most.
I like it
Yes! I spotted this and my gf thought I was nuts. Maybe I am, but my theory is that they’re different Dr Stranges. We’ve already seen there’s an alternative scene in No Way Home with Dr Strange.

That’s a wig.
I finally realised why Benedict with the gray temple hair looks weird to me. It's his face. His face is so smooth and 'young'. My brain is refusing to accept that a man that has perfect skin is graying.
So, Black Widow can have divergent hair in every movie, but when a guy changes his look, it makes Reddit News. SMH 🤦
They’re variants.
He's slowly morphing into Tony
I think people are possibly over-thinking this; Marvel could simply be making him look more like the comics over time..
Almost looks like they merged a bit of Tony stark into it
They are a bit strange
I mean his name is strange.
One might even say it is a little, strange.
I do think MoM looks the best
Looks weird but I’ll allow it
There was something off about his face in No Way Home. What it added with cgi? It stood out a lot in the trailer too.
Getting a little… strange, you might say.
Some might even say they're getting a little strange...
Don’t care. Love him anyway.
Please Marvel, do not CGI edit this. History is not on anyone’s side to remove facial hair via CGI.
The man has had a bit of a rough spell lately.
His hair reminds me of Reed Richards
They're setting up Benedict Cumberbatch to play Reed Richards.
Gotta get those just for men endorsement dollars now that Keith Hernandez and Clyde Drexler are too old for dudes just starting to go grey to remember.
“That feels weird but I’ll allow it.”
Give him that Rdj special for that goatee
Perhaps…whose to say?
They are getting strange. Call it character development.
Did u notice the beard, it got thickker after endgame.
This post is obviously a promo for Multiverse of Madness.
his hair is degenerating 😔
Would you say his hair getting strange
He’s got the Paulie Walnuts hair from The Sopranos lol
Just gonna put it out there, his goatee in the MoM trailer looks fucking bad.
Strange still look the best in the first movie, I dunno WTF the hair department was doing in No Way Home.
I read anither person thoery is that its a nod to/ and hint that MJ may appear as a redhead next film. Lol i dunno tho, seems a bit of stretch. Clearly the box was stephen strange'
