Can anyone relate?

I wear turbans everydya in my house which I dont ususally like cause I am afraid to wear my wigs.
I get worried if I wear a wig and rest my head on the back of the couch it will mess up,afraid it will damage faster, and also cause I smoke, even thou it's only me that smokes I smoke rarely.
How can I be afraid to wear a wig in my own house? Am I being weird here?

My cute little turban

I was surprised at myself when the other night I had to drive my sister home and guess what I wore? yep!! my pink turban, I've had looks from others in thei cars and what I did was "wave" see how fast they turn away,,LOL

I have gotten to the point where I will go outside in my turban and couldn't care less who sees me.

At least I know that this is a good step for me. As far as me going out bald , i'm not sure that will ever happen at least not for a long time to come!

Hearing all… Continue
