No, George Washington was not wearing a powdered wig in most of his adult portraits. While he did wear a powdered wig during some formal occasions, many of his portraits, including the famous ones by Gilbert Stuart, depict him with his natural hair, styled in a way that was fashionable at the time. Washington's choice reflected a shift in style as the 18th century progressed, moving away from the traditional powdered wigs.
