What do I like and what do I miss?

Just a thought about little things that change when you loose your hair... some of them i like, some of them i miss.

I like

different hair stiles
fake lashes, lots of them
taking the wig off, when I come home
no shaving
soft, silky skin
surfing wig sites
alopecia world
shape of my head
ability to make jokes about baldness

I miss

feeling of wet hair under shower
ponytails
putting my mascara on
brushing my hair
waking up without thinking about wigs, adhesive, lashes..

Yeah. Ponytails. It's been 49 years since I have had one. Even brushing hair back off the forehead would be great, instead of wig bangs all the time in the heat!

Scotland doesn't get a proper summer ANY year! :)

But, we do seem to be having a warmer-than-usual November.... no frost so far. (Famous Last Words...)

I feel the same way about the hates... i never tought that it was cold under the wig, i tought it would keep me warm on cold days, but its the opposite :(

I would like a wig that would cool me in the summer and keep me warm during winter, that would be awesome :)

Difficult stuff:

Knowing where to stop when you wash your face.

Good stuff:

Being able to spread sunblock all over!

Bad stuff:

Getting flies stuck in the sunblock... maybe I should use less? :)

I like being ready in five minutes. I just get up, take a shower, put my wig on,and go to work. Do anybody think how much time we save each day being hairless?

Besides, when I have a party, I take one of my wigs to the hairdresser´s one or two days before, so I have it ready to wear, and I don´t think more about the question. And, of course, we save a lot of money (less shampoo, aconditioners, and so on...)
