New Swain has too much hair

Hi, I haven't been to the forums in a while, and I just happened across the new Swain rework. I like it, for the most part. I don't know how often this is mentioned by other people, but I personally think he has WAAAAY too much hair. I'm fine with the demon hand, I'm fine with him showing his face, but I feel like he should still be balding like his original concept. It's not even that I think dudes shouldn't have long hair, Taric does that look justice, but I feel aesthetically Swain should have short hair & a receding hairline. Otherwise it feels like a different champion altogether. & I know a rework is meant to turn an old champion new, but still, I think him having all this hair is a bit too far. I think it works for his Northern Front skin because it's cold as hell and more hair helps, but he otherwise has way too much.

TL;DR New Swain has too much hair. Give him back his short-cut, receding hairline. Even if that doesn't mean giving his old-man mohawk back, just don't make his hair so incredibly long.

Sorry if this topic is beating a dead horse, literally haven't paid attention and just happened upon the thought.

Think of him like an older Snape.

"Sorry if this topic is beating a dead horse...." There's nothing left but bones of that horse at this point.

Since they didn't cut Swain's hair when all the discussions around it was happening, I doubt they would do it now. Especially with new Swain going live in a couple of days. And I honestly doubt they ever would at this point.
