In that case, he'd have to give him a new uniform as well.

Can someone look at that ("Violations"[TNG]) dream sequence and see if there is a front on shot of the younger Picard, that might prove to be useful.
As for the Nemesis photo, perhaps Cadet Picard has been the victim of a prank.
Isn't that what's supposed to have happened to Garibaldi in B5?

I still can't fathom why people can't seem to grasp the idea that Picard shaved his head for a time while a cadet, later grew it out again, and then lost it naturally as he got older. This is hardly unbelieveable, if you ask me. I personally have a teacher who did the same thing. (Bald for looks as a young man, then full hair in mid-life, and ending up bald again.)

Works for me. Although these were his athletic days, so he could have shaved it for something a little more practical that mere aesthetics.

Well, either young Picard once shaved his head because he lost a bet. Or he wore a hairpiece for quite some time after his Academy days until his age "allowed" him to go bald again.
I don't even think that whoever made the photo of young Picard (Tom Hardy) for Nemesis was lazy. It was just meant to stress for occasional viewers that Shinzon was exactly like Picard, and to give us something to bother about...
