US President Donald Trump was seen with a noticeably darker, browner hairstyle as he stepped off Air Force One in Morristown, New Jersey, on Friday, en route to his golf club in Bedminster for the Labor Day weekend. The change, a departure from his usual blond comb-over, drew widespread comment on social media and came just weeks after his voluminous blond look at a Las Vegas casino appearance had already caused a stir online.

Biographer Michael Wolff has claimed on a podcast that Trump travels with a dedicated "patch kit" containing hairpieces in various shades, carried by an aide, and that the president largely styles it himself. Wolff traced the practice back to Trump's first term, citing daughter Ivanka's past comments on the effort involved in arranging his hair. Trump has previously joked about disguising a bald spot, and his doctor confirmed in 2018 that he takes medication for male-pattern baldness. The White House has been contacted for comment.
