In Wat Pho, there are several old statues of Buddhist monks that are notably bald,as monks traditionally shave their heads to symbolize renunciation of worldly desires and to focus on spiritual enlightenment.
These statues often represent Buddha or prominent monks who have had a significant impact on Buddhist history. They are displayed in various rooms and areas within the temple complex. Most of these statues are intricately crafted with fine details, and some may depict important historical or religious figures in Thai Buddhism or Buddhist history in general.
Although these statues vary, they are typically created in the classical Buddhist style, with features like monk robes and shaved heads, representing humility and asceticism.(this explanation is about the first video)
