Yes, the hair is unbelievable !

Ossi has been turned upside down and dipped into a large bottle of
indian ink.

Ossi told me he now looks as young as he feels; we are opening a book on
what age this actually is. 13 years old is even money at the moment. And
the reason, ah, Ossi has a new girlfriend, she is very young they say,
24 years, and Ossi is already in his forties. New spirit of youth or
mid-life crisis ? All will be revealed, or not as the case may be :)

And they have this great promotional leaflet - two pictures: Ossi
before, and Ossi afterwards :)
