Jeremy Piven Hides Hair Loss With Toupee
As Entourage fans are eagerly awaiting Ari Gold’s return to premium prime time, Make Me Heal is eager to see what new toupees Jeremy Piven wears. Jeremy is notorious for wearing toupees in lieu of receiving plastic surgery for hair restoration.
Paparazzi captured very soon to be 43-year old Jeremy’s wig getting prepped for shooting a scene on the upcoming season of Entourage, when it returns this fall. Over the years, Jeremy has worn a variety of hairpieces to mask his rapidly receding hairline, even appearing au naturel from time to time, letting the world in on his secret.
Unlike Brendan Fraser, Jeremy hasn’t yet turned to hairplugs, instead using hairpieces of varying shape to mask his baldness (See Make Me Heal’s story on Brendan Fraser’s hair loss).
Hair restoration exert Dr. Alan Bauman warns that relying on tape and glue to attach hairpieces can actually accelerate hair loss.
Jeremy’s method of dealing with hair loss is similar to the various hairpieces that John Travolta has worn over the years (See Make Me Heal’s story on John Travolta’s hairpieces).
Jeremy’s hair loss pattern starts at his forehead and recedes all the way to the middle of his head.
Some of his hairpieces are more successful than others and even if he decided to forgo the rugs altogether, we’d still watch his heinous shenanigans with the rest of the Entourage boys.

Jeremy Piven was on an early episode of Seinfeld about 15 years ago, and he was already bald. Not receding hairline bald, but George Costanza bald.

He has been balding…bald, for ages! He should just forego the toupes or the guys on Entourage should rag on him about it when they get mad at him in an episode.That way it allows him to continue to wear his hair piece, and everybody is in on the joke. Right now, the guys’ characters
on Entourage are too smart not to know Ari is not wearing a toupee.
