Ivanka Trump has been known for her platinum blonde hair for decades, a signature look she shares with her late mother, Ivana Trump. However, her natural color is much darker and quite different from the golden hues she’s rocked in recent years.

While Ivanka hasn’t openly discussed any damage caused by dye and bleach treatments, she has been spotted wearing hair extensions, which could indicate possible thinning or breakage.
