Melania Trump’s Hair Sparks Buzz: Experts Weigh In on Alleged Extensions

A new photo of Melania Trump has ignited speculation about her beauty regimen—specifically, whether her iconic long hair gets a little help from extensions. The chatter began after Vice President-elect J.D. Vance posted a photo on December 12, showing the former First Lady with Donald Trump watching the New York Stock Exchange. But it wasn’t the stock tickers that drew attention—it was what appeared to be visible extension tape in Melania’s perfectly styled hair.

“Ready to ring the bell on the New York Stock Exchange,” Vance captioned the post. “President Trump will lead a great American comeback!”

Top stylists were quick to analyze. Julia North of Wigonia noted, “It does appear she’s wearing tape-in or beaded-row extensions, likely premium European hair around 18 to 20 inches.” Extension expert Saraphine Nurse echoed this, pointing to the texture and fullness at the ends.

Celebrity stylist Mia Santiago added, “If I were a betting woman, I’d say she’s definitely wearing them.”

Despite the rumors, one thing is clear—Melania’s grooming remains flawless. Whether enhanced or natural, her look is always on point.
