Chris Evans has been making the rounds lately to promote his upcoming film Red One, and fans are taking notice of his latest style — dubbed the “Hot Professor” look. With longer hair, glasses, and a full beard, Evans’ appearance has drawn admiration online, including from writer Sarah who coined the flattering nickname in a recent post.
Evans, who was named People’s Sexiest Man Alive in 2022, went public with actress Alba Baptista around the same time. The couple quietly married in 2023, but since then, the actor has stepped back from social media. His reduced presence is believed to be a response to the intense backlash and harassment the couple received online after announcing their relationship.
Despite his lower profile, Evans hasn’t shied away from referencing his Sexiest Man Alive title. He appeared twice this week on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. On one occasion, he took part in a lighthearted sketch with this year’s titleholder, John Krasinski. On another, he delighted fans by cuddling puppies — a moment that reminded many why he’s so beloved: his affection for dogs.
Elsewhere, fans and followers have been speculating about Evans’ hair. Known for his thick and wavy locks, some have noted that his hair appears even fuller lately, prompting quiet chatter about whether he may have undergone a hair restoration procedure. While there’s no confirmation, discussions about men’s cosmetic enhancements — like hair transplants — have grown more common online.
Turkey has become a hotspot for such procedures, especially among non-celebrities, with frequent jokes about planes full of men returning home with bandaged scalps. While average patients head to Istanbul for affordable options, Hollywood stars often opt for discreet treatments at high-end clinics closer to home.
Regardless of how he maintains it, Evans’ look continues to spark conversation — proving that even after his official SMA reign, he remains a fan favorite.
