The various extensions were styled for curly hair, straight hair, and a braided ponytail.
The Jeopardy! host jokingly said to the camera: “You know, sometimes they say you don’t want to see how the sausage is made.”
The hostess captioned her post: “People may not know I have short hair under all those extensions. Lots of laughs.”
THE COMMENTS
In the comments section, shocked fans praised the ABC star for showing off her true hair.
One fan said: “I love you with short hair!”
Another fan added: “Your own hair is so much prettier than your hair with extensions.”
A third fan added: “The short hair is so cute on you.”
A fourth person wrote: “Short hair is awesome! Do what you want to do, but I think your hair looks great short!”
A commentator chimed in: “Love your short hair. Your personality shines through no matter how long or short your hair is.”
NEW TOURNAMENT
The game show’s website recently announced Mayim’s upcoming stint with the High School Reunion tournament.
The 14-episode competition will air instead of the regular episodes and feature 27 former Teen Tournament contestants who previously played against each other in 2019.
Now older and wiser, the winner will duke it out for $100,000 and a slot in the 2023 Tournament of Champions.
After the tournament, Mayim will continue to host the regular show, as execs earlier announced, while co-host Ken Jennings, 48, might be off until next season.
Ken will be hosting the new Jeopardy! Masters spinoff, scheduled to air during the spring in primetime.
Ken and Mayim became the permanent replacements for the late longtime host, Alex Trebek.
‘BUSY, BUSY WOMAN’
Last month, producer Sarah Foss and executive producer Michael Davies opened up about the scheduling conflicts during the Inside Jeopardy! podcast.
Sarah said: “We know there’s been a lot of discussion around our hosting schedule.
“We want to let you know when you can watch Mayim and when you can watch Ken in the coming months.”
The Call Me Kat star took a longer absence than expected.
On Mayim’s absence, Sarah explained: “Originally, we did think Mayim would come back in January.”
She went on: “Her Call me Kat schedule – it evolved – so she’ll be back a little later than we anticipated.
“But not for any lack of wanting to have both hosts on the show as much as possible – just scheduling.”
Sarah concluded: “Mayim is a busy, busy woman! We’re excited to have her back.”
