Hi

The wig your mum has found for you... sounds like a lace hairpiece of some type. There are many around, I'm sure that somebody will come along with what they feel about this type of hairpiece - many find them very helpful.

Freedom Wigs - I can help you with. My daughter has been wearing them for the last 8 years. Pop into my page and you can see her and a couple of my friends wearing them.

You know if you are very comfy with out wearing anything I would also not rush into wearing a hairpiece. If you are thinking about using a hairpiece as an alternative look, just take your time and work out what you may require from a hairpiece, your personally wants and needs. Then talk to someone that understands and can help with the hairpiece you feel may fit the bill.

Good luck with your investigations.

Rosy

If the Freedom Wig is anything like the Lace front, I would say be careful about the type of glue you select. Some wig glue can really irritate your skin and case a rash on your scalp. But as far as a good quality wig, if you get a human hair one, it should last a very long time. Some people sleep in theirs, but if you want to take it off, you just get a glue remover spray and the glue will peel off with no problem. That's what I know about the Lace fronts. I hope that this helps.

Yes, I have one of those "wigs stuck to my head" and it works for me!

Sounds great, but my problem is all the heat that wants to escape from my scalp. I can't wear wigs because of the warmth and sweat. I hope they work for you. If you decide you want to try the bald look, I think women have the same rights as guys to be cool and comfortable. There are plenty of photos of women who do here on AW, and Miss Delaware has appeared on national TV bald.

Thanks for your advice.
I also get really hot and sweaty under wigs, and prefer the natural look.
I wear hats and caps most of the time, but prefer to be natural, only problem is that I am a bit shy about it.

I was terribly shy about being bald in public. For a while I kept a record of "firsts": first time to the gym, first time to the grocery store, to the mailbox, etc....than I stopped caring and now it's just me. It's who I am, and I only have a scarf or knit cap on my head when I'm chilly, or a sunhat when I'm in full sun. It just takes baby steps, a little at a time.
