Donald Trump gave Jimmy Fallon permission to tousle his famous hair

Donald Trump's elaborately coiffed hair may look like it's impervious to gravity, hurricane force winds, and the average comb, but it apparently is no match for a vigorous rubdown from a late night talk show host.
On Thursday's Tonight Show, Jimmy Fallon asked the Republican presidential nominee if he could mess his hair up, and after initially grimacing, Trump agreed. Trump noted he used spray, but it didn't protect him from Fallon's mussing; when the host was finished, Trump's hair somehow looked wispy and troll doll-esque while still keeping its billowy pompadour shape.
