From one cat lover to another - I had 6 but as of 2009 all have passed. I am searching for a new baby now. This is the longest time I have not had a cat. I love your wig....in the pictures....the short reddish hair....looks totally natural. What kind is it,and if I might ask, how much? I am always searching for something that will look natural, and be comforatble and not excruciatingly hot here in FL.
Thank you for your very kind words : ) I think in time we will all be strong but some days are better then others I guess.. Take care
LOVE your profile picture by the way!
Hi Leslie,
I understand the nerves, but once you get your hair styled and start wearing your Freedom piece you will be at total peace with your decision. It is like a great pair of leather shoes, or a really good bra...you forget your wearing a hairpiece until I said something! When I first wore my hairpiece out to our friend's pool party, all the girls thought my hair had grown back! You will love it! Excited to see your pics!
Hi Leslie,
Thank-you! You will LOVE your Freedom Wig...I do! I wear it to do everything...they are beautiful, natural and best of all...Comfortable!! So excited for you!!!!! Post pictures once you have it styled!
Hi Leslie!
I had both my eyeliner and eyebrows tattooed several years ago and I would NOT recommend it.
First, the eyebrows never looked natural. The ink spreads out and the hairs never look fine enough. Then, you have to continue to do it about every two years because it fades. Oh, except for the part that turns blue and never fades! So I use temporary eyebrow tattoos which are really natural looking, can last for days, and are affordable. You can get them at www.beauti-full-brows.com.
The eyeliner tattooing was a horribly painful experience with the needle going in my eye (and this was an experienced technician) which also faded. So for eyelashes, I just use a lot of eye makeup for every day -- a smoky eye is a good camoflage as well as bangs (you can find out step by step how to create that look in my book), or for dates, photos and when I know people will be looking at my eyes, I do false eyelashes (also step by step guide on which ones are the best, how to trim, how to put them on, clean them, etc in book).
That being said, I know a lot of women who like their tattooed brows, but I have never seen any that look natural enough for me.
Does that help? Do you have more questions? I am happy to help!

I never had any hair loss until some stupid doctor told me to take DHEA. I took DHEA for 6 months which caused my hair loss. I tried everything until I read that link which I posted. After reading everything I could about Gerovital on Google I concluded it was not a scam and could work. After about 7 or 8 months taking Gerovital shots my hair started to regrow. Gerovital works on your whole body. Before you start taking the shots (not pills) write down all of your problems, Gerovital will cure most of them. After my first 4 week cycle I saw my skin improve dramatically. Then during my second cycle my sex drive improved, then my chronic fatigue improved. My anxiety which prevented me from drinking coffee also improved, today I drink coffee all day. I was so happy with Gerovital that I was not upset that my hair loss did not improve until around the 8 month when I realized my hair regrowth. To cure alopecia you have to cure your body as a whole, especially your nervous system. Thats exactly what Gerovital does, it is not directed specifically at your hair. I only take 7 shots per cycle, 1 shot then a 3 day interval. 1 cycle is 28 days, then I take a 14 day break and start again. 3 shots per week is to much (what is instructed), might be ok if you are 80 years old with very low metabolism. Good Luck !
