Does Michael Fabricant wear a wig?

Michael has not confirmed whether he wears a wig, however he has said that his hair has undergone some "enhancement".

During an interview with The Mirror in 2014, the Conservative politician confessed: "OK, all I will admit to is that there is some — but only some — enhancement of the follicular area."

When asked by CBB co-star Patsy Palmer: "Michael is there a reason that you wear that? That you wear a wig?"

Michael replied: "I just have always had long blonde hair so I just feel comfortable."

Palmer then said: “Yeah, so not because you are bald or?" to which he responded: "No not particularly no, just because I'm... I don't particularly like talking about it but it's just how I want to be. It's part of me."
