Is Melania Trump Using Hair Extensions? Recent Photo Sparks Debate
A recent photo of Melania Trump, shared by Vice President-elect J.D. Vance on Twitter, has sparked speculation about her using hair extensions. The image, showing Melania and Donald Trump watching the New York Stock Exchange, drew attention to her hair, with some spotting what appears to be tape-in extensions.
Hairstylists weighed in: Julia North of Wigonia suggested Melania might use high-quality European human hair extensions, blending tape-ins for volume and beaded rows for length. Extension specialist Saraphine Nurse noted the fullness and texture, typical of clip-ins or tape-ins, while stylist Mia Santiago pointed out that extensions hold curls better, hinting at their use.
Melania’s hair length varies across appearances, a common practice for public figures to maintain a polished look while protecting natural hair. Her seamless color matching and refined style keep her signature elegance intact, extensions or not.
