Haircut

I've been debating about it since I got the wig and started wearing hats. I've never had really short hair in my entire adult life. You would think at this point, it wouldn't really matter, but somehow it did.

I didn't have the guts to get it shaved completely. One of my sisters said that after giving it quite a bit of thought, she decided she would not shave her head in solidarity should I choose to go that route. I thought that was really nice of her to even consider it.

Today I went and got it cut short. It actually looks like I have more hair with it shorter. Not that I'd go out in public with my almost-naked pate. I figured it would make wearing the wig and hats easier, and not look so scraggly.

Today I ordered another wig and a couple of hats online, so I have some options. I can no longer be in denial about what 'thinning' hair means. So, I'll try to be a bit stylish to compensate.

Congrats to you on making that decision. I LOVE hats. I will be happy to join you in wearing hats, but not cutting the hair (ha).

Good for you! I'd join you in the hats or wigs, but gotta agree with the sis--Just say no to the razor!

So what's the new wig look like? Long or short? Curly or straight? Pink, green, blue, or purple?
