Does Gene Simmons Wear a Wig

In the past, there were many discussions on whether Gene Simmons ever wore a wig to hide his hair loss among his followers.

In case you are not very familiar with him, Gene Simmons, who is currently 72 years old, is an Israeli-American musician, singer, and songwriter.

Also known by his stage persona “The Demon,” he is the bassist and co-lead singer of Kiss, the rock band he co-founded with Paul Stanley, Ace Frehley, and Peter Criss in the early 1970s.

His family immigrated to the US when he was only 8 years old, settling down in New York City. Simmons plays bass, and lead vocals are split between Simmons and rhythm guitarist Paul Stanley in most Kiss songs.

Some notable songs featuring Simmons singing lead include “God of Thunder”, “Rock and Roll All Nite”, “Deuce”, “A World Without Heroes”, “I Love It Loud”, “Calling Dr. Love”, “Unholy,” “Spit” (second lead vocals), “Boomerang”, “You Wanted the Best” (first lead vocals), and “Christine Sixteen”, among others. 

In addition to playing bass, Simmons is known for his long tongue, which he frequently sticks out while performing. He is known for his demonic figure by spitting fire and vomiting stage blood on stage.

Why Do People Wonder Whether Gene Simmons Wears A Wig?

As some of you might have noticed, this legendary rocker has experimented with numerous popular hairstyles throughout his career.

His countless accomplishments include his work as a successful actor, guitarist, singer, singer-songwriter, film producer, composer, voice actor, blogger, songwriter, and record producer, to name a few.

His standing and fame in the US are also why so many people are interested in whether he has been wearing a wig to continue his gratifying career, especially when he has already entered his elder stage of life.

Over the past decade, the number of male celebrities who seek different hair loss solutions to maintain their stunning images on the screen has been rising.

Is Gene Simmons Bald?

Speculation that Gene Simmons wears a wig has long run rampant.

Still, you no longer have to imagine what the Kiss frontman would look like with a shiny, bald dome: Simmons donned a “skull prosthetic” in his film Armed Response and shared a photo via Twitter.

The obvious question here is whether Simmons is wearing a bald cap in this photo or if this is just how he looks, and there is actually no way of finding out. 

One photo taken in 2008 seemed to suggest he had been bald. But Gene has likely spent a significant amount of money keeping the secret from being disclosed.

Does Gene Simmons Wear A Wig?

The manager of his band once released a picture of Simmons, the founding member of KISS, sporting a bald cap prosthesis for the film he would be appearing on social media.

Sometime later, another image of Gene Simmons wearing his bald cap prosthesis went viral on the internet.

He actually poked fun at individuals under the mistaken impression that the rock star is genuinely devoid of hair and does not wear any wig.

KISS Anthem Project tweeted a photo and said, “Caption this. I’ll go first: Turn off that light! I’m not wearing my sunglasses, and the glare of Gene’s head hurts my eyes! – @shannonleetweed (meant in fun only) @genesimmons.” 

Adam Freeman responded, “INSIDE SCOOP: This was shot the night we did a bald gag for one of our ‘…good to be me’ tags. I took this on my phone in their driveway and anonymously submitted it to the tabloids as a joke – who picked it up.”

There Is More about Gene Simmons

From all mentioned above, it seems Gene Simmons’s hair is not real, and he has been wearing a wig to appear the way he used to when he was young.

Despite that, he is still the Gene Simmons people have always known.

And all of his works still remain equally influential and impressive to those following him. Whether he wears a wig does not seem to matter too much to his fans.

The Best Wig for Gene Simmons

As Gene Simmons is completely bald, he would need to wear a full cap wig to achieve that youthful appearance for himself.

Full cap wigs are designed for women or men who have complete hair loss or prefer total scalp coverage.

A full cap wig with a size larger than 10”x10” would cover his entire head and even include sideburns and nape areas.

At New Times Hair, there is a hot-selling full cap wig for men that someone like Gene would favor. It is the NL031 French lace wig with anti-slip silicone.

The base design of this full cap wig features French lace with thin poly covering around and across the clear PU front.

There are also thick net strips on the temples and back to strengthen its structure.

As a highly breathable and lightweight woven material, French lace not only feels very soft and silky; the thousands of tiny holes across the base design allow his head to fully breathe without any discomfort.

The thin polyester and clear PU front are very friendly in the sense that both glue and tape can work for him to attach this wig, with effortless maintenance jobs after removing it.

Furthermore, all hair wig details such as base size, shape, color, and density can be specifically customized based on his needs.

  1. I agree. Looks like a tent sitting on top of his head. And jet black looks terrible. Wouldn’t hurt to have some highlights in it. With his money, you would think he could get something that looks more realistic. He actually looks pretty cool being bald.

    Why did he pick that wig. Why didn’t he pick one that looked more like his hair style. The one he wears looks stiff and looks fake. Just saying

● What hobbies and interests do you have?

I enjoy exercising. That’s a very important part of my life. I’m a super active person.

● Do you have a phobia? If you do, what is it?

No, not that I know of. I’m a very realistic person. If you mention outlandish stuff like aliens, monster in the bush, I’d be out of my mind.

● What is something you would love to do in the future?

I want to learn how to swim. I know it might sound a bit sarcastic, as I just mentioned that I enjoy doing exercise. Unfortunately, swimming hasn’t been on my list. I think I better catch up on that.

● What wig would you wear if you wore one and why?

I’d give HW1 a try. It looks natural and beautiful. Though we categorize it as a medical wig, almost any female can wear it. It’s got a lace mesh base, breathable, and flexible. You don’t need glue or tape to fix it to your head. Pretty easy, and it gives you all the long hair look a girl could want.

  • How would people in the office describe you?

At our end-of-year conference, my colleagues agreed that I’m a warm hearted, positive, and easy-going teammate. It gives me a sense of reward.

  • Do you have a phobia? If you do, what is it?

I don’t like being confined in a very small space. I believe it was due to a childhood experience. When I was six years old, I accidentally tripped and fell into a shallow well. I had to wait for two hours before I was found. Since then, I’ve found I just can’t tolerate the idea of being alone. I guess that makes me an active team player.

  • You are happiest when…

This may sound boastful, but it’s true. It’s just part of my nature to help others. When I actually see that what I did for them has helped them achieve something, it just makes me excited.

  • Which mens/womens hair system do you sell the most? Why that model?

I recomend HS25V. Oftentimes I’d introduce this model to my new clients to start with, so they can introduce this to their new clients see if hair systems are what really suit them, before they carry on with lace or mono hair systems.

  • Which mens/womens hair system do you sell the most? Why that?

Most of my clietns are after Q6. And their clients happened to be guys who are into hair systems that are durable and natural. Q6 is a pretty good pick for them. With proper care, it should easily last 6 months.

With me personally, the best-selling hair system has been HS1. It has what it’s required out of a good quality hair system, in terms of a natural-looking hairline, undetectable scalp, etc. Most wearers and salon owners are familiar with it. Plus, all our clients have faith in the quality of this hair system. According to their feedback, this is an easy-to-attach, easy-to-maintain hair system for both men and women.

  • Which men/womens hair system do you sell the most? Why that model?

New Australia. When it first came out in early 2023, it made me top of sales. I think most wearers like it because at the design statge, our experts considered all possible aspects people could want from a hairpiece, such as a natural look, a level of comfort, and affordablity; it’s similar to lace, but most wearers can afford.
