Hillary Clinton’s Hair Called ‘Most Amazing Hair In The World’ — Is That Because It’s A Wig?
When it comes to political hair, Donald Trump’s usually leads the pack where critical tweets are concerned. But as it turns out, Hillary Clinton’s hair is a topic of conversation on social media as well.
Mostly, blogger Matt Drudge is wondering: Does Hillary Clinton wear a wig?
On Wednesday morning, Drudge sent a series of tweets to his 322,000 followers claiming that the Democratic presidential candidate’s hair is not actually her own.

People magazine went straight to the source and got to the bottom of the topic, asking Hillary’s hairdresser the same question, Is Hillary Clinton’s hair real? Santa Nikkels owns Santa’s Hair Salon in Chappaqua, New York, and has worked on Clinton’s hair in the past. Santa told People:
“You guys are so funny. She has the most amazing hair in the world.”
The most amazing hair in the world, huh? Tell that to Donald Trump.
In fact, it didn’t take Donald Trump long to get involved in the debate about Hillary Clinton’s wig. During an episode of The Mark Levin show, Trump spent nearly a minute discussing Clinton’s hair with the talk show host.
“Is that a wig?” Trump asked, before talking more about Clinton’s hair, saying: “It really was shocking to see because… it was massive. Her hair became massive. It was interesting to see because I’ve never seen Hillary with that hairdo. It was very different, wasn’t it?”

This isn’t the first time that Hillary’s hair and whether or not she wears a wig has been the topic of discussion. As People reports, Hillary herself confirmed in August that her hair is in fact real, even if her hair color is not.
At the time, Donald Trump had recently invited someone from the audience on stage to check out whether or not his hair was real. Clinton also discussed her hair.
“A lot of people have said a lot of things about my hair over the years, so I do kind of know what Donald is going through. If anyone wonders if mine is real, here’s the answer: The hair is real. The color isn’t.”
Clinton’s hairdresser went on to tell People that Hillary Clinton does not wear a wig “at all,” and that she believes Clinton will be the next president of the United States.
“You know politics are very dirty and I don’t want to get involved. No matter what, she is going to be the president, that is what I am telling you.”
Nikkels has apparently worked with Hillary Clinton’s hair for quite some time and even appeared in Hillary Clinton’s infamous email correspondences. Find out more in the video below. (Article continues after the video.)
Throughout the current primary, the appearance of politician seems to have taken a front seat more than ever before. Earlier this summer, Trump was criticized when he made comments about Carly Fiorina’s face. At the time, Trump said he was talking about her persona rather than her personal appearance, but some have questioned Trump’s authenticity where the persona defense is concerned.
Do you think Hillary Clinton wears a wig? Why or why not?
Find out more about Hillary Clinton’s hair in the video below, where she says that The White House “can’t turn (her) hair white.”
