Definitely not the Picard Maneuver

The Picard maneuver here would be to shave it early and look the same age for like 30 years

Pretty much what I did. I started to thin on top in my early thirties. Nothing major at the time but it was obvious where it was going so I shaved it all off and have been since.

Aside from a few more wrinkles I look pretty much the same twenty years later...

...though my beard has recently started to sprout a few grey hairs.

You've gotta keep the beard though. Unless you're Patrick Stewart or The Rock, every movie ever made says that a dude with a shaved head AND face is untrustworthy.
