It's not every day that Matt Damon's hair makes news all over the world, but the fact that the Oscar winner has changed up his usually traditional style to now sport a ponytail is definitely as good a reason as it gets for everyone to be focused on his locks.
In the recent Beijing, China, event of the actor's latest film, "The Great Wall," it was Matt Damon's hair that became the source of every headline regarding the event, as Damon was seen for the first time sporting a ponytail nobody even know he had and hadn't been showing in his latest media appearances earlier this year.
According to a hilarious article by Mashable, the debut of the new Matt Damon hair came as he spoke at a press conference about the film in the Asian country, as he was accompanied by co-star Andy Lau, with everyone's eyes completely locked on his Chris Hemsworth-like looks.
