Did Steve Harvey Ever Use Wigs?

The world of glitz and glamour is full of charm and mystery where no one really knows what is real and what is fake.

Hair is no exception. The use of alternate hair, such as wigs, toupees, and hair extensions, is so rampant in the entertainment industry that we can assure you that you have never seen the real hair of some of your favourite celebrities.

After years in the music industry, Beyonce only recently revealed her real hair. The long, coloured hair that the Kardashians flaunt isn't real. They all have short hair and use wigs and hair extensions.

On the other hand, some stars are known for their iconic bald look, and one can not imagine them without hair. Take Steve Harvey as an example. He wasn't always bald, but it is difficult for his fans to accept that he once had hair and even used hairpieces for men.

Even he finds it funny when people don’t believe he had hair. Here is a throwback post from his account on X (Formerly known as Twitter):

Who is Steve Harvey?

Broderick Stephen Harvey Sr, better known as Steve Harvey, is a popular American television presenter, comedian, host, actor, author, and producer.

Harvey began his career as a stand-up comedian in the early 1980s and is still making people’s days lighter with his jokes, personal life incidents, motivations, and many more laughs.

His accomplishments include seven Daytime Emmy Awards, two Marconi Awards, and fourteen NAACP Image Awards.

Why is Steve Harvey’s Evolving Hair Journey Talked About?

Steve Harvey is a name synonymous with an impeccable sense of humor, charismatic hosting, and an ever-evolving sense of style—particularly his hair, or the lack thereof.

Known today for his iconic bald look, Steve Harvey's relationship with his hair has transformed hairlines and bold choices. One of the most notable aspects of his evolving appearance has been his transition to baldness. This change catapulted his on-stage presence and added a new layer to his personal brand.

He is one of the very few celebrities who have embraced baldness and encouraged others to do so. Watch this video from his show:

What was Steve Harvey’s Hair Like?

Steve Harvey wasn't always bald. He went bald only later in life, around the age of 50. In the early stages of his career, he sported a full head of afro hair with hairstyles varying from high-top styles with sleek cut edges to luscious hairlines, becoming a significant part of his on-stage persona.

This was when Steve Harvey's hairline was discussed, admired, and even envied among fans and onlookers. This led to speculations about the authenticity of Steve Harvey’s fake hairline and rumours about Steve Harvey’s hair.

Did Steve Harvey Use Wigs or Hairpieces?

Steve Harvey spoke openly about noticing changes in his hair.

Look at this video; you will notice a big bald spot on his crown.

This bald spot suddenly disappeared before The Steve Harvey Show. We all know that once the hair has gone, it's gone forever. Balding crowns and receding hairlines do not return to normal without a hair transplant or using hair systems.

So, it is widely assumed that Steve Harvey wore a man weave - a men’s hairpiece or an afro-textured wig at certain points in his career to cover his bald spots.
