It's Hair Loss Support At Its Best™
New Woman
Well... I have posted a side view of my very first wig. As you can see, the wig is VERY similar to my bio hair style. After much consideration and convincing, I realized this was a good stepping stone. As much as I really wanted longer hair, this is a good intro for people, clients and family to the new me. I have had it for 4 days now, wearing it everyday and LOVE IT!!! I have gotten so many compliments. Some people at work "know" it's a wig and still love it, some people just think I've gotten a great new hair cut, and some say, "you look great, I don't know what it is, but you look great".
I feel SO much more confident. I don't even care if people realize it's a wig. The more people know that, the more fun I can have getting different styles, colours, lengths... I'm SO excited!!!

Thanks Tenille... !! A few people have said, even once they know it's a wig, that they say my FACE is glowing too.. that my new-found confidence is bursting. hehe... I DO feel quite giddy... :)

Yay! That's so great! I remember reading one of your other blogs about a hat and how you were feeling pretty down because of your hair loss. I'm so happy that you're feeling confident again! Good for you! And you look fantastic in your wig!
Best of luck!

Thank you Alexandra and Rose Marie! I LOVE my wig and it's just amazing how different (good) I feel going out the door to work in the morning or to the store. I even WANT to go to the store now, or to visit people. I am coming out from under my rock :)
