short, straight wigs for women


At www.wearmyhair.com we are paying more attention to short styles right now. It is always assumed that anyone young (ish) will want to have long hair, even if a wig, and this is just not true. Many women and girls find that short hair suits them better. This may be just down to the shape and size of their face, or, it may be lifestyle and work factors too. Busy mums and workers in the food industry where keeping hair out of the way is important, to mention just two! So we are now bringing on a range of short wigs and medium length wigs to help balance the range. We have also just got in a medium-length wig with a side parting that looks really good.

The colour red which is bold but not dark has been achieved by blending two colours and it really is a fabulous colour. Redder than strawberry blonde but lighter than auburn, it is warm and sunny. I am wearing it myself right now and I love it.

Mens wigs, grey wigs for men! Straight, transexual & transvestite, it is not an issue


Funnily enough, we sell more mens wigs from the website www.wearmyhair.com/mens-wigs than any others. Men do not generally come for the free consultation, they prefer to sort it out for themselves in the privacy of their own homes. Understandable, many men are less than sympathetic with the idea of hair-loss being a major issue within their gender. They are wrong. Apart from the fact that it is an entirely personal issue and decision, we all have different hang-ups about the bits of us that we don't like, and it is not right for anyone to pass judgement.

It's funny, as a society, we have made huge strides against so many predjudices, and yet the simple, uncomplicated ones that don't involve race, colour, religion or the other contentious issues, seem the hardest and most entrenched. At www.wearmyhair.com we are totally there for everyone wanting our help whatever their personal choices. We get a few transexual and transvestites who come to the house and who just buy direct from the website. I am happy to say that they feel comfortable enough to tell us and talk to us about the kind of hair they want and how we can help. They have a great range of womens wigs to choose from.

Increasingly too, we get older men who maybe have started dating again after divorce or bereavement, who decide that to boost their confidence, they will wear a wig. If they were already grey, they will often choose a grey wig. We have two shades of grey, the light grey and a salt & pepper darker grey.

I am happily married to a man who lost most of his hair by the age of 30 and his baldness has never fazed either of us. But if it did faze him, I would be totally ok about him wearing a wig. I simply believe that life is too short and a bitch anyway, so that whatever we can all do to make it easier and more enjoyable, and providing it does not hurt anyone else, then go for it.

Not for nothing is our slogan, " Be who you want to be today & wake up yourself again tomorrow"!

Discussions around hair on Hubpages


Yesterday I signed up to Hubpages and have written 2 hubs so far. It seems a very good format to discuss issues around hair - synthetic or human. As a website selling wigs, www.wearmyhair.com is keen to dispel any myths about synthetic hair being less good than human hair just because it is cheaper! There are advantages and disadvantages with both. On the plus side with synthetic hair is, of course, the price. But that is not all. For many people, the whole idea of wearing wigs is to have more hairstyles, colours, lengths and so on to play with! That whole "getting ready" to go out for the night, clubbing, on a date, or just a girlie night, is such a great opportunity to make the absolute best of what you have. It doen't matter a toss if it is real or not -hey, if I break a fingernail, I so do not wait for it to grow back, I put on a falsie! With implants, semi-permanent make-up, false eyelashes and everything else, whether it is real or not, just does not come into it.

It is about feeling the best you can. For many people, myself included, wearing a wig is infinitely better than putting up with my own hair. I have done the whole lot - straightening, dyeing, salon straightening and the Yuko method! That was expensive and some. The first time I had it done it was good. Cost about £300 but it stayed straight for about 3 months. The second and third time though, the salon used trainees and it was not good, not worth the money, they burnt my head and I never went back again.

I could wear real human hair wigs if I wanted to but I have seriously never felt the need. Ok, you cannot dye a synthetic wig and they do not last as long. But for my money, I would rather have a range of different synthetic wigs that I can wear according to my mood, outfit, make-up, occasion or whatever, than one very expensive wig that will most definitely damage with treatments such as dyeing, using blow-dryers and tongs etc. A reasonable human hair wig will cost upwards of £300 and many cost much more. Not me, I will stick to the synthetic wigs and have my money's worth every time!

All new short wigs now on site


All the new pictures are now on the site. We are trying out a new format and if it is effective, we will roll it out to other images. It is an animated Gif that rotates to display the wigs from 360 degrees. It is really cool but sometimes such devices can be irritating so we want to keep the static images also.

Childrens wigs




For a child needing a wig, we have a small but lovely range. Soft and comfortable and not at all hot, our childrens wigs are specially manufactured not to irritate young delicate scalps, and they can be cut and styled to suit the child. We can also make bespoke wigs to match colour and style from photographs and these can usually be delivered with three weeks! Wear My Hair supplies wigs of excellent quality and very reasonable prices. We believe that for a (usually) temporary problem, our customers should not have to pay huge prices
