He gave the first one a rating of 5, saying that his hair looked like Justin Bieber’s with a wave and everything going on.
“There’s a bit of flip happening if you’ll notice, and then it’s sort of like it was like the Justin Bieber cross with the flip. I am going five on that one,” said White.
There was another, where he appears to have converted his face mask into a headband. He seemed to like that one a lot, rating it a high 8. And then the one, where White had cut his hair short for the first time. However, White hated the one where he was spotted with a baret and gave it a 2.
White is a big fan of his moustache
One of the pictures also featured White with his moustache. White rated this picture a solid 9, saying that it was more the moustache than the hair.

White clearly is a big fan of his moustache and it turns out that was the first time he actually was able to grow one.
