we are fortunate enough tonight to be granted a rare interview with perhaps the
most misunderstood
of all great recluses the hairpiece maker to the stars mr nicholas of hollywood
if you're anything
like i am when you're at home watching your favorite tv show or enjoying a fine
film you're
always saying to yourself boy those stars are awfully well groomed how do they
get to be that way well
many of them are wearing nicky hair pieces and that's why while we're in hollywood
we decided
we'd stop in and pay a visit to nicholas of hollywood
nicholas do me a favor give me uh give me some of your the names of some of
your clients that we
might recognize i i would try to not say who my clients are you're worried
about a lawsuit aren't
you well more or less look look look let me worry about the legal problems okay
okay well i'm working
on one right now for clyde baldwin clyde baldwin is a very uh famous man he
does al jolson he's the
only one today who does al jolson in the big leagues i know you've been
responsible for some
developments in the hairpiece industry uh tell us a couple of your innovations
when i first came into the
half piece business there were no names uh for styling and it was very
confusing because people
wanted a style they didn't know how to call it by what there was nothing to
identify a particular look
exactly so we start giving them looks of names after celebrities this is the
style that jack clubman
wears this is the jack clubman style and you're talking about the hair not the
eyebrows no we're
talking about the hair the hairpiece this is tom jones style and then we have
the frank sinatra style
frank sinatra as an 11 year old girl nicholas tell me about this uh article in
the newspaper on
the wall there what is that well the baby was catching colds all the time so
they put a hat
on him at night but they had to attach it some way to under his chin but they
were afraid he might
choke to death sure so that's when i spoke to his uh grandmother and she told
me let's try a hair
piece with tape as far as you know no one has choked to death wearing a hairpiece
no unless they would
decide to eat it i'm confused how does that have anything to do with putting
romance back in your
marriage oh that's just the headline of the inquire oh i'm sorry that's only
the headline that's my
mistake i'm sorry now let me ask you a real personal question are you wearing
any of your products
anywhere on your body yes i wear a hairpiece oh you're wearing a hairpiece and
but everything from
the hair down is yes most of it from the head down is mine okay yeah and and
what is this model

got a name for this
one yet it's a younger it's a younger generation i look like an opening act for
don ho okay nick in the
final analysis uh i know you've written a book on this topic what is it that
