She treated her father with some lightness, even irony, and in at least one television interview she made fun of his comb-over. She often described the mechanics behind it to friends: an absolutely clean pate-a contained island after scalp reduction surgery-surrounded by a furry circle of hair around the sides and front, from which all ends are drawn up to meet in the center and then swept back and secured by a stiffening spray.
In the book "Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House," the author Michael Wolff presents an intriguing portrayal of a daughter’s relationship with her father. Despite their familial bond, she often approached him with a sense of lightness and irony, suggesting a playful dynamic. In a notable television interview, she even poked fun at his distinct hairstyle, particularly his comb-over, which stood out as a prominent aspect of his appearance.
She would go on to describe the intricacies of his hairstyle to her friends, revealing the behind-the-scenes effort that went into achieving the look. Her father had undergone scalp reduction surgery, resulting in a bald area at the top of his head, while the remaining hair was methodically styled to cover it. This level of detail underscores the relationship's mix of affection and mockery, highlighting both the personal and public personas he cultivated.
