However we needed to do a triple take at Metro.co.uk at this time over this waxwork creation – and never as a result of it was lifelike.

The German wax museum Panoptikum has a reproduction of the Queen, and beneath her hat she’s really bald.

After all, Her Majesty has a full head of hair in actual life. So why does she have a naked scalp on this mannequin?

Dr Susanne Faerber, managing companion of the museum in Hamburg, spoke to the Each day Mail as she combed the hair which comes out from beneath the hat on the waxwork.

‘As we're utilizing actual human hair for our waxworks which may be very costly, some figures which have hats don’t have full hair,’ she defined.

‘We simply set up the quantity of hair which is seen for the guests.’
