Title: Undetectable!

I ordered Sienna on a Wednesday afternoon and it arrived on Thursday morning! I chose this style because it is almost identical to my own hair – but when it is at its very best – and given an expensive, tip-top cut and blow-dry. I cannot adequately emphasize how absolutely brilliant and realistic this wig is. I kid you not, as I write this, it is all I can do to stop myself from chuckling – you see – my husband has been home for about 4 hours and has not shown the slightest flicker of realization that I am wearing a wig!!!!! I will choose my moment to let him in on my secret – but I think that I am going to have a lot of fun with this for now…. I have osteoporosis (caused by vitamin D deficiency) and am recovering from a hip fracture. The drug I have to take for osteoporosis is known to cause hair loss in some cases – but I didn’t really want to wait and see if this happens before I do something about it and have an awful, embarrassing panic …… Since the accident, my hairdresser has only been able to come and give me an intermittent trim – and frankly – the cut is not as good as before (especially my fringe). To ‘cap’ it all, last weekend, I tried a temporary colour and it ended up way too dark. Since I am currently unable to get to town and have it sorted professionally, my lovely wig is the perfect solution. Whether or not my own hair starts to disappear – now that I can see just how lifelike the wigs are – I think that I will really enjoy collecting long styles in various shapes and colours.
