Sahih al-Bukhari 5938 (Book 77, Hadith 153) #5697
Cheating with False Hair

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ warned against the use of false hair as it is considered cheating.

Narrated Sa'id bin Al-Musaiyab: Mu'awiya came to Medina for the last time and delivered a sermon. He took out a tuft of hair and said, "I thought that none used to do this (ie use false hair) except Jews. The Prophet labelled such practice, (ie the use of false hair), as cheating.
حَدَّثَنَا آدَمُ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ مُرَّةَ، سَمِعْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيَّبِ، قَالَ قَدِمَ مُعَاوِيَةُ الْمَدِينَةَ آخِرَ قَدْمَةٍ قَدِمَهَا، فَخَطَبَنَا فَأَخْرَجَ كُبَّةً مِنْ شَعَرٍ قَالَ مَا كُنْتُ أَرَى أَحَدًا يَفْعَلُ هَذَا غَيْرَ الْيَهُودِ، إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ سَمَّاهُ الزُّورَ‏.‏ يَعْنِي الْوَاصِلَةَ فِي الشَّعَرِ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
In this hadith, narrated by Sa’id bin Al-Musaiyab, Mu’awiya came to Medina and gave a sermon. He took out a tuft of hair and said that he thought only Jews used to do this. The Prophet then labelled the use of false hair as cheating. This hadith teaches us that we should not cheat in any way, shape or form because it is wrong and goes against Islamic teachings. We should always be honest in our dealings with others and strive for truthfulness in all aspects of life. Furthermore, we should not judge people based on their appearance or what they wear but rather focus on their character and actions instead.
