It's the one thing that has dominated the Trump presidency: his hair.

From memes to the topic of late-night talk shows, Donald Trump's hair is no stranger to controversy. So when it (his hair) decided to trade in its classic bouffant for a comb-over, you can bet your Mexican wall that it was going to get noticed.

Trump made an unannounced stop at a church in Virginia, where a local pastor prayed for him. The US president had just played golf and some thought the look was simply because he had been wearing a golf hat and had no time for, er, styling.

 

Here's his new look

Of course, his new stylin' didn't go unnoticed on social media.
