Envious

Before I finally gave up the fight and shaved my head (sweet surrender by the way) I would find myself envious of girls/women who could put their hair in a ponytail or simply just "throw it up outta the way", however now with my newly shaved head I've found a whole new fixation with girls/women that love their wigs or hairpieces. Why can't i be like them i ask myself. To appease my daughter and to feed my curiosity I went wig shopping and found myself shaking my bald head no to every wig they placed on my head...I heard myself saying things like " that's not me, that's really not me, I can't take myself seriously with this thing on my head, etc, etc". We looked at wigs ranging from $3800 to $300, lots of colors and styles to choose from but for me...what I think it is is that I just finished fighting a battle with my own hair and I don't feel like starting another battle with hair that isn't mine (well I guess technically it's mine if I paid for it) anyway I think I just want to coast awhile with some hats, scarves and my dome! One step at a time. So many options, so many choices a girl could get overwhelmed! Love to All!

God choice you have to feel comfortable that's what's most important:) Congratulations on shaving your head:) I have to shave mine again... But hey you are lucky t have something to choose from...Where I'm from there is very very little selection (like 15 styles)...:(
