Love Island fans admitted they "can't unsee" the similarity to a hairpiece, with a "former baldy" also weighing in on the debate.
Yet Munveer Jabbal, 30, who was part of the matchmaking show's 2024 line-up and booted out with Patsy Field, 29, has let slip the truth on a new podcast.
He spoke to host Joe Baggs, a former Gogglebox fan-favourite, on his Not My Bag Podcast.
When Joe asked if Ronnie, 27, "ruffled" up his barnet, model Patsy said: "Yeah, he doesn't want anything to drop or fall."

Munveer, revealing the reason behind his lush brunette locks, said: “He was very open about it. He spoke to the boys and it's basically hair fibre."
Patsy interjected: "That's the tea!"
Munveer continued: "The full backs are gone.
"But he's using hair fibre.”

BIG REVEAL
A TikTok "baldy" recently took to his page to muse on Ronnie's look, suggesting he used the hair fibre technique.
Rhys told his followers of Ronnie: "So he's got hair fibres in his hair, which is essentially a powder that you put onto your scalp, and it makes your hair look thicker and darker."
"Then when you see him at night, he's obviously rubbed all those hair fibres out of his hair before he's gone to bed - because it will literally go all over the bedding - and you can see more just how much he is actually thinning.
"So, yeah, it's not a toupee, it's not a wig, it's hair fibres."
Another TikTok star also told how a hair fibre product helped to cover bald patches sparked by perimenopause.
RON ON
Previously new islander Ronnie, who is best pals with Olivia Attwood's husband Bradley Dack, caused a fan frenzy with his locks.
One fan took to X to quiz; "Does Ronnie have a wig on?
"His hair looks the wrong texture. At the very least sprayed black."
"What is going on with Ronnie’s hair please? Is it a wig/hairpiece?" suggested another.
In a double blow, Ronnie was also trolled for "looking old" in his promo photos.
Prior to his villa entry, he hit back and said: "Whatever really...I always say I always look a bit older.
"I've always been told I look older, do I look old?
"And I've had some mad shouts before. I might have to get rid of this long line on my forehead and hopefully I'll look a bit younger."
