WWE legend Dwayne Johnson recently debuted his men's skincare line, Papatui, in Target stores. However, fans are confused by the inclusion of a 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner, considering the 51-year-old is bald.

The $7.99 products have received positive customer reviews, but social media is abuzz with questions about a bald man promoting hair care. Johnson seemingly anticipated this reaction, and his joking tagline addresses it: "My hair would've loved this 2-1 shampoo and conditioner."

TikTok users are having a field day. "This man has no business in the shampoo department and here he is advertising his Papatui," said Freakinfriction in a Target-filmed video. A friend questioned, "Do I trust the Rock to know what's best for my hat hair?"

SarahGrayAndTall was similarly puzzled: "I'm sorry, I'm not going to buy shampoo and conditioner from a hairless man."

Dwayne's not content with being a movie star, superhero, former Sexiest Man Alive, and tequila entrepreneur – he's now in the skincare game! Papatui launched in Target on March 10th with affordable skin, hair, body, and tattoo care products.

Speaking to People Magazine, he explained his motivation: "Papatui has allowed me to encourage just a more open, greater conversation about skincare and grooming."
