You'd think he'd be wearing a bald cap with a wig over the top but he shaves a strip in his hair and I can't see how you could do that with a wig without having the underlying netting or whatever lies under the false hair showing. But all you see is scalp. So, I'm wondering whether Jason Segal actually did shave part of his head for these two episodes.

He has been filming movies during evry hiatus, or promoting themalmost continuously for years. And I haven't seen a role or talk show appearance that had hime with a bald patch or completely bald so I would have personally guessed it was makeup. The only thing that suggests it was real, is when they did flashbacks to the wedding for later episodes, he never takes the hat off like he did in the original episode. If it had been makeup, they could have just redone the skullcap he wore, if it had been real, maybe he couldn't shave it because it wouldn't work in the continuity of the season they were filming. Wish I had an answer, but haven't seen a mention of it anywhere.
