A notifying exclamation that someone within visual range of the speaker is wearing an unconvincing hair piece or wig.

Note not to be confused with "Irish Jig Alert!" which is a warning that "Lord Of The Dance" is playing in town.
Two friends walk into an ironmonger's shop and notice that a waiting customer at the counter of advancing years has jet black hair with a side parting at the back of his head.
"Ooops! Syrup Alert!"
