Donald Trump's hair has about as much character as the US presidential candidate himself. People have written illustrated histories of it, hairdressers have explained why it looks the way it does, some have questioned whether Trump has added a touch of gray of late and there's always the candidate's own defense of his follicles. A new video, however, exposes where those flaxen strands actually come from.
Norway's VG TV found a "wig farm" on Kvaløya, an island just outside of Tromsø, where it claims Trump has been sourcing his toupees for decades now. The video claims the hair comes out stronger, thicker and fuller because of the cold weather. And indeed, the visuals do seem to look exactly like a field full of Trump hair, as scary as that sounds.
The video itself admits, however, that what you're actually looking at is bunchgrass tussock, an indigneous species of grass to these islands that nevertheless bear a striking resemblance to Trump's hair.
