Illusionist David Copperfield unveils new head of hair

David Copperfield appears to have pulled off his greatest magic trick yet – making his full head of hair grow back.

The illusionist, 60, unveiled his dramatic new look as he appeared on ABC’s Good Morning America Times Square Studio in New York City on Tuesday.

David, who was formerly engaged to supermodel Claudia Schiffer, 47, sported a slightly less luscious head of hair in the past.

The magician looked handsome as he displayed a full thatch of dark hair on his head – and smiled at the cameras as he proudly flaunted his new look.

It is unknown whether David opted to undergo a hair transplant or is wearing a wig – but the dapper star looked happier than ever with his more lustrous appearance.

Wearing a black shirt, he teased at his chest hair by leaving his top buttons undone as he smouldered at the camera.

David met Claudia when he brought her on stage for a mind reading act and to partake in a flying illusion in 1993 at a Berlin gala.

The pair became engaged in January 1994, and David went on to introduce Claudia for many of his acts as a guest assistant, where she appeared in many of his illusions such as being sawn in half. 

She also appeared alongside Copperfield in David Copperfield: 15 Years Of Magic (1994), a documentary in which she played the role of a reporter interviewing him, at the end of which they reprised their performance of the flying illusion.
