Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is responding to an influencer's viral video about his men's personal care brand Papatui.
Katy Napier (@happyyellowco) shared a TikTok video of her stumbling on Papatui in a store on Tuesday, June 2. She showed the products on a shelf as well as a life-size ad of Johnson smiling, his bald head on full display.
"Don't give up on your dreams," Napier says in her now- viral video, which has since amassed over 5 million likes. "The Rock is selling shampoo and conditioner, and he's bald."
"Go for it," she added in the text of the video.
On Thursday, June 5, Johnson, 54, stitched her video on social media—while wearing his long locks in character as Maui for the live-action Moana movie. In his response, he simply smiles at the camera.
"Ok this made me belly laugh.. HARD 😂😂😂 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 🤜🏾🤛🏻," he confessed in the caption, adding, "And hey, sometimes a Demigod's radiant and ravishing hair needs shampoo/conditioner 😜🪝.You're Welcooooome 🎶."

He signed the post, "Love ~ Maui 🪝," and told the influencer, "ps ~ I got a little gift coming your way, @happyyellowco 😉🥂."
Johnson's Papatui first launched in Target in 2024, and he previously opened up to PEOPLE exclusively about the inspiration that went into making a men's care brand.
"I found over the years as men, we can have these great conversations about working out, recovery, ice baths, saunas and we can talk about trucks and cheat meals and tequila and our favorite movies, but every conversation I would have regarding skincare, I was always pulled to the side privately like, 'Hey, can I ask you a question? What do you do for your skin?' " he said.

The 2016 PEOPLE's Sexiest Man Alive explained that he hopes to normalize conversations about skincare and haircare for men.

"So many times I would say, 'Dude, why are we whispering [about skincare]?' " he recalled at the time. "'It's okay. We should be able to have this open conversation.' Papatui has allowed me to encourage just a more open, greater conversation about skincare and grooming."
