Toupees - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Janice · 08-19-2005, 05:56 PM

My husband and I watch a lot of discussion shows, and there are so many men who wear toupees, from the hosts to the guests. My husband will always ask me, "Is that a wig or what?"

Some toupees are obvious and others are hard to tell. Once it's pointed out, you can't stop noticing how many men wear toupees on television.

Do you think any toupees look completely natural?

I always knew that Ted Danson wore one but I could never tell. When he took it off for Carla in that one show it really made a difference in his appearance.

What is hilarious is the comb-over! 10 strands of hair on the far side of the head combed alllll the way over to try and cover up the baldness!

You don't know what you're talking about. Comb-overs are very natural looking.

I never notice that people have them.

I saw that episode again recently, and to me it looked like he just took the crown piece off, but I think there was more toupee in the front. In other words, they split it up for the scene, when in reality Danson's toupee was more than just the crown. I could be wrong on that.

I saw Bruce Willis in a movie last night, and his toup was natural looking.

Ted Danson wears a toupee?!

I had absolutely no idea. Then again, I never really watched any of his shows, but his hair always looked natural to me.

Doesn't William Shatner wear a toupee too? I always say he looks waaaay young for his age and my mom told me that's because he wears a toupee. It totally doesn't look like he's wearing one!

I'm pretty sure Shatner does wear one.

I think the ones on John Wayne and Burt Reynolds look(ed) quite natural.

As for me, I'll never know for sure because I'm not balding at all.

You are better off just shaving your head instead of putting on "horse Hair."

Donald Trump's hair looks like a toupee

Tuesday Weld · 08-19-2005, 07:07 PM

JMO, I don't think they look very good, most of the time.

Donald Trump needs a toupee. His hair has got to be the most insane thing going. Does this man have any friends to tell him? Does he own a mirror?

He probably thinks it looks okay the way he wears it.

I hated that. I also hated that he decided to go without the toupee during the 200th episode special. Sam's hair was a big part of his character, and I don't wish to see him without it. It was sad. Plus that was a great toupee, so if he would've just kept it on no one would have ever known that he had one for sure.

In general toupees are creepy. If my dad ever lost his hair and wore one I would never be able to look at him without thinking about it.
