John Stamos was called out for wearing a bald cap in solidarity with his Full House co-star Dave Coulier, who was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer.
Stamos took to Instagram to share a photo alongside Coulier, who was smiling with a freshly shaven head amid his battle with stage 3 non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
Nothing like throwing on a bald cap and flexing some Photoshop skills to show some love and solidarity with my bro, the You alum captioned the carousel on Monday.
Its inspiring, the Grandfathered actor added. I know youre going to get through this, and Im proud to stand with you every step of the way. I love you.
A second shot showed Stamos shaving his pals head, while a third photo showed Stamos giving Dave a kiss on head alongside Daves wife, Melissa Coulier.
While Stamos seemingly had good intentions behind the post, several fans questioned why he had to wear a bald cap to share his message.
Seriously just couldnt shave your head bro ? one person commented.
God bless Dave but is this really appropriate? another added. A bald cap is showing solidarity? You can just take your cap off and be normal again. When people take this route they actually shave their head. I cant help but feel that youre using Daves diagnoses as a way to make yourself more likeable.
What a shallow gesture! Couldnt even cut your hair off for your friend. And you made sure to post it on Instagram to get those likes too, a third chimed in.
Hate to be that person but this is more insulting by putting on a bald cap then not shaving ur head. A person with cancer doesnt have a cap they can take off, a fourth wrote.
Stamos, however, received praise from other fans for being supportive.
if Dave isnt offended by this, you shouldnt be either and remember John is an actor and may need his hair for his JOB, one person wrote.
Honestly, Dave, you wear bald really really nicely! Stay strong, were rooting for you! another posted.
A third added, John Stamos is such an inspiration during Daves fight with cancer.
Last week, Dave announced he was diagnosed with cancer during an appearance on the Today show.
[I was] feeling like I got punched in the stomach because it never happens to you, he said. You always hear about it happening to someone else.
The Fuller House star recalled the first symptom appearing as a lump in his groin.
