Wear my Hair -blog now on site!

Hi everyone,  my blog has now transferred to www.wearmyhair.com/wigs

Free yourself from hair hassle on holiday!

Believe me, I do know what it is like.  You've got the tickets, the clothes, the make-up and the sunblock.  You are totally holiday set, and sooooo looking forward to your holiday in the sun.  But there is just one worry, one thing that will prey on your mind and your fear is that it will spoil your fun in the sea.  It's your hair, isn't it?  I know exactly.  It is not just the salt, it's the wet!  It will totally undo your hair and you will either have to ignore it and go round with a nightmare frizz or you will be straightening it between each and every dip just to keep it reasonable for the evening.  I know,  I have had every type of holiday spoilt because of my hair troubles.  Holidays in the sun - Italy, Spain, France & Greece and holidays in the rain too, camping in Devon & Cornwall,  Wales & Scotland,  always the same result, wet hair equals wrecked hair.
Ever thought of setting yourself totally free from all that?  I did, about 5 years ago and I haven't looked back.  I wear wigs nearly all the time because it gives me the hairstyle I want without the hassle.   I will wear a single wig for 3 months and then it will be just about knackered so I keep it for swimming.   Wear an old wig for swimming.  It's fine, I promise.  It does not float off or any other horror like that.  If you are unsure, simply wear goggles and they will keep it in place.  I could of course swim without a wig, just my own short hair but I am now so used to wearing a wig and feel so much more comfortable with a wig rather than without, that I prefer to swim in a wig.  I guess one of the reasons for this is the apres swim.  I really love to be able to sit on the beach and just let my hair (wig) drip dry as if it was my own hair.  To me it feels very liberating, like getting soaking wet in a storm and the wig just drying in the perfect style without ever moving from your head.  After a life time of battling wavy freaky hair, it is just great!

The overwhelming majority of women and girls want straight hair.   Every now and then, the fashion pundits tell us that curls and waves are back but it is like skinny is out - not!  It just never happens.  Most women want sleek straight hair that stays looking good whatever the weather and whatever they are doing!   

If you, like me,  just dont have that obliging hair,  go choose a great wig that, wearing it all day every day,  will last you at least 3 months!  www.wearmyhair.com

Wear a wig for style & comfort

Many of my customers wear wigs for style.  Like me, they do not like their own hair for whatever reason.  In my case, my hair is wavy and very, very thick and it sits on my head like a hedge!  Not a good look! I used to spend a fortune going to the hairdressers getting it cut, styled and blow-dried.  It was all a waste of time and money and I used to feel so depressed as I left, having spent time and money and knowing that as soon as I was home, I would wash it all out and start again.  In the end, the only style that I was reasonably happy with, was really short, urchin style, and spiked with Black & White's wax. 

It was years later, and a new relationship, that I read about the Japanese Yuko straightening method being pioneered in London.  So I went, hotfoot, to Toni & Guy in Golders Green and emerged, 3 hours later, and £300 poorer with lovely straight hair.  The lovely straight hair lasted about 3 months and was good while it lasted.  I didn't need to use any straighteners or anything and it stayed straight in rain and drizzle so I was happy.  When it did start to wave again as it grew, I confidently made another appointment for the procedure to be repeated, but this time, after the first 5 minutes, I got the trainees and everything changed.  They even burnt my head.  I never went back again.

Eventually, I realised that it would be far less hassle and cost to wear a wig.  I have done so now for about 5 years and have no intention of going down the salon route again, no matter what they promise.  A wig is cheaper, more versatile and best of all, you just take it off and put it on at your own choosing!   Picture above, me, wearing Mary May !  Picture below, Mary May as on website.

women wear wigs for fun!

More and more women, white women as well as black, wear wigs now for fun.  It is seen increasingly as just another way to accessorise your look and re-vamp your style.  What better way!  After all, nobody wears the same make-up with every outfit so why have the same hairstyle.  Wearing a wig is great fun.  It is much better value than visiting the salon, which more often than not, only lasts until the next hair wash and a wig has the advantage that you can wear it when you want to and put it away when you dont want to!  It could not be more flexible.

You can change your hair colour and style simply by wearing a wig!  The wig I am wearing now is Mary May and I have worn it everyday, all day for 3 months and it is still fine.  I have washed it once a week, every week and it still looks perfect.  For £75 I think that is very good value.  Here is a picture of it!

Perfect wig for Goths!

This angel number is the result of a one-off order from Essex and is probably the best we have done for the Goths!  Look here and tell me what is not to love about this one±

A happy customer with her new wig!

 A lady rang up in a bit of a panic as having just started chemotherapy, her hair was falling out in clumps and much faster than she anticipated.  She urgently needed to have a wig for a fun day at the races which she didn't want spoilt by feeling self-conscious.  She bought her wig from our site www.wearmyhair.com/short-wigs and it arrived the following day with free postage!  This is the message she sent me

"Hello Its Jayne from Bradford, I received the Nikki wig today and I just want to say a big, big thank you for your speedy delivery.  I love the wig and it will make a huge difference to what will be hard months ahead.  I will certainly recommend you.  Many thanks Jayne xx"

And, this is the short wig she bought!  Nikki in colour FR8T

Wigs for events and special occasions

I just sold another two wigs,  one womens wig, and one mens wig for a Fawlty Towers night at a local pub.  So the wigs, both short wigs were ideal to create the Basil and Sybil characters!  This is a fine example of an occasion where you need a wig that is a good quality wig without breaking the bank.  These two really fit the bill though they will both be trimmed and styled to match the iconic duo!
