I am still wearing extensions. The alopecia has spred to the front of my head right above my ears. So even the extensions, if I tilt my head don't cover that well anymore. I found a wig online for $40.00. It is fake hair of course, but I wanted to try one our before I spent a lot of money. I wore it a couple times with a hat. I think it looks like a wig with no hat, but what can I expect for $40.00!? I really wanted it for camping, or the river with a hat, so I don't mess up my extensions! I don't know how much longer those will work? If it gets much worse, they'll be no good to me! They make me feel so much more confident. The wig is cute too, My husband wants me to get a short red one too. (I wonder why ;)) I think the part that makes wigs work is feeling good about yourself. I would rather walk with a wig and a hat than what I call "my hair" and a hat. It looks so awful, I'm holding on to nothing good here! lol
So my husband was making fun of me, that I'm "orange county'd" out now. I have fake hair, fake lashes, and fake brows! Now I just need 1 more fake thing, and I'll be set!!! LOL
