‘I absolutely haven’t done anything’: Today host Karl Stefanovic DENIES hair dye rumours

Karl Stefanovic appears to have a fuller head of hair over the past few weeks, with rumours he dyed his naturally brown hair to black. 

But the Today star has denied the allegations he’s altered his locks to a darker hue.

Speaking to The Daily Telegraph on Wednesday, the 45-year-old TV star claimed Channel Nine’s studio lighting was to blame for the dramatic change in colour.   

‘I’m glad to be providing some light relief to the nation during dark times,’ Karl told Confidential. 

Before adding: “I absolutely haven’t done anything to my hair.” 

Karl went on to explain the Today show was being filmed in ‘the B studio’, which had different lighting equipment available.  

‘It is what happens when you don’t have full staff on,’ he added, referencing the social distancing measures the network has put into place amid the coronavirus pandemic. 

However, his co-star Allison Langdon hasn’t had the same issue with her golden blonde locks under the different lighting setup.  

Karl also appeared to have darker hair in his bathroom at home, filming a TikTok video with his 14-year-old daughter Willow.  

Last year, Woman’s Day reported that Karl had spent up to $55,000 on a hair transplant. 

In September, Karl joked about his ‘expensive’ hair on This Time Next Year.

He stepped away from a woman who was burning her bra on stage, saying: ‘Don’t want to burn my hair and stuff. Do you know what I mean? It’s expensive!’  

Of course, it wasn’t the first time Karl’s hair transplant has made headlines.

In 2017, the Sydney Morning Herald reported that he’d undergone the procedure because he was feeling ‘pressure’ to look younger.

The publication claimed he’d had a ‘subtle hair transplant’ a few years earlier to cover thinning at the front and top.
