Why is howie mandel wearing a wig on the jimmy kemmell show?

Answer 1

Howie Mandel was wearing a cosmetic nonsurgical hair loss treatment called a "hair system". A hair system is different than a wig. A hair system is typically constructed from a thin mesh base with human hair tied into the mesh with special knots. The base and hair characteristics are based on the balding pattern and hair loss condition of the person. Hair color is matched and the base is then adhered with a special adhesive to the bald part of the head. The mesh base disappears against the skin, giving the illusion of hair growing out of the head.

A number of celebrities use these hair systems including John Travolta, Ben Affleck, Jason Alexander and Nicholas Cage.

Howie Mandel wears his hair system for the same reason other people do: it makes them look younger and it makes them feel better. It restores their natural appearance and balance in their features. Hair loss is not a simple condition to deal with. A hair system that looks great can help restore self confidence and self esteem lost by hair loss.

Answer 2

Howie Mandel was wearing a cosmetic nonsurgical hair loss treatment called a "hair system". Toupee is an older, passé word for what is being produced now by the hair loss treatment industry.

I'm certain Howie wore his hair system because it makes him look younger, more handsome and it helps him achieve his natural appearance he would have had had he not lost hair. Clearly he's not trying to make it a secret. Wearing hair systems allow many men to look and feel better about themselves and gives them self-confidence and self-esteem that is often lost when men lose their hair.

As our culture changes and evolves, the stigma surrounding losing one's hair and wearing hair systems is being lost and good riddance.
