I will wear a wig occasionally.  For a long hair look.
Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

I don't most of the time, if I am not going anywhere. But for appointments where I need to dress up a little, I will wear a topper instead of a hat.

Sometimes, I just want a different look, so I might wear blonde or red, or a different style. I have several to choose from. But that is mostly in winter. In the summer heat, it is a hat or a topper.  :)

I have good jeans or so I have been told by my sweetie. Or is it that I have good genes?

But I do not have naturally blonde hair. So a blonde wig is worn for fun.  It is not the best shade or tint for my skin tone though, so I do not wear it to work or in any professional setting.

I do look much better and natural as a strawberry blonde though.

I've never worn a wig.  I started growing out my hair in 2018 and it now reaches the middle of my back.
I've gotten reasonably good at dressing despite the long hair.  It used to get caught in zippers.
It can get stuck in tight tops when I try to put them om.

Good for you Marion.  Not the hair getting stuck though in the past for you.

I wore a wig for about 9 months as I began to grow out my hair. At that point, I went totally natural and eventually donated my wigs to the clothing exchange at this year's Keystone Conference. I am very fortunate to still have a full head of hair at age 70.
With much love,

Intelligence is like underwear. It's important that you have it, but not necessary that you show it off

April,

It is nice to have your own head hair for sure.  I am hoping the male pattern baldness does not show up for me.

Never had one. Lucky  to still have my own  hair at 67 though I have had some thinning  due to COPD and  type 1 diabetes  and the meds to combat  them. 
Now it's warming  up  i usually  wear braids or French  Twist. I have straight  silver  hair that reaches my bra strap.

I wear a wig pretty much any time I go out.  At home or going around the complex (or bicycling) I don't, but then I'm wearing a hat or a helmet.

I have MPB, and my hair is (and always was) pretty thin, so it bothers me to see myself without a wig.

Wigs are just fine to wear and they can be very affirming.
