If you've ever worn a wig, you know they're not the most comfortable. Afro-style wigs might be a bit better, but generally, they’re not the most comfortable. Wearing a wig in the summer? It’s even worse. The sweat on your scalp builds up because your hair is trapped underneath, and adding another layer on top makes it unbearable. This is not just my personal experience. I mostly wear wigs for pictures to switch up my look, but not for long periods or as part of my everyday style. I’d never trade my freedom and comfort just to look a certain way.
Now, I’m not here to condemn those who can wear wigs for hours. If you can endure it, good for you, but for me, it’s uncomfortable. Over time, they cause itching—especially the ones glued on for too long—and they can even make your hair smell. Wearing wigs for extended periods doesn’t keep you comfortable and can even make you look tacky. That’s why I’m writing this article. I love switching up my look, but I’ve noticed that many women have become obsessed with wigs to the point where they’ll spend loads of money on them without ever investing in themselves. Shows like Young, Famous & African on Netflix or other reality shows featuring Black women rarely show anyone wearing their natural hair or sporting a culturally significant hairstyle. And that’s not to say wigs are bad, but it’s concerning how many Black women are promoting looks that don’t represent who we truly are. We need to teach younger generations that they don’t have to wear wigs to fit in.
I’ve had someone ask me why I didn’t “dress up” for an event simply because I wasn’t wearing a wig. Meanwhile, I looked just as beautiful in a lovely, decent dress—probably even better than her. But for some reason, not wearing a wig made me less “dressed up” in her eyes. I think the wig industry has taken away a lot of Black women’s confidence. Many women are willing to go to extreme lengths to wear a piece of someone else’s hair, and that’s what bothers me. I can meet ten beautiful Black women, and all of them will be wearing frontal wigs, with the lace visible and sometimes even the glue showing. No matter how skilled the installer is, I can still tell it’s not your hair, and honestly, it doesn’t look nice. Some are really pretty until you come closer, and then the lace is visible, or the glue starts to show, making it look less natural.

Wigs have become more about putting people into categories than having fun with their look. People are spending big money on wigs but haven’t made any realistic investments in themselves. Take reality shows, for example—most of the Black women on these shows aren’t wearing their natural hair, braids, or anything culturally representative of who they are. Instead, they’re wearing wigs made from someone else’s hair or mass-produced in factories. There’s this narrative that, in order to succeed or meet certain people, wearing a good wig is part of the package. I’m speaking from experience here.
I love my natural hair. You can’t tell me otherwise. My parents raised me to embrace who I am, to respect my culture, and to be myself. I was taught not to follow the crowd. I’ve seen friends struggle financially but still find money to buy a wig when they don’t even know how they’ll pay rent. When I say wigs are a major issue for Black women, especially, I’m speaking from real-life experience. There are women who wear wigs for fun, just to switch up their look, and that’s fine. But when people start arguing over who has the best wig, that’s where it becomes problematic. Your hair—the one you were born with—can be styled in so many ways. Where I come from, our hair is art; it can be styled in a million ways, and that’s what I love about it. God never failed me when it comes to my hair, and I don’t need a wig to be accepted by anyone.
A Nigerian reality star, Khloe Abiri (@kokobykhloe), commented after undergoing plastic surgery, saying that if a Black woman shows up to her event wearing natural hair, she’ll send them out. A Nigerian female pastor even made a statement suggesting women should stop wearing their natural hair in order to attract a husband, claiming wigs are the way to go. Sadly, wigs have deeply penetrated the lives of Black women.
It’s heartbreaking to see women going to extremes—some even stealing wigs from stores—just to meet some industry standard. Why steal something that grows naturally on your head? We all look great, but there’s an entire industry pushing the narrative that without wigs, you’re not progressing class- and beauty-wise. I’ve tried to educate as many women as I can about this mentality, and I leave it to God to lead them.
Lastly, let’s talk about the health impact of wearing wigs. Wigs can cause scalp irritation, hair thinning, and even breakouts along your hairline. Wearing wigs that are glued down for too long can even cause traction alopecia, a form of hair loss caused by tension. So, my advice to anyone—whether you’re African, Asian, Indian, American, etc.—is to embrace your natural hair. Wear wigs if you want, but don’t feel pressured to. Your natural hair is just as beautiful, if not more so, and you don’t need to conform to anyone else’s standard of beauty.
É muito triste não se sentir à vontade com seu próprio modo do corpo ,tamanho ou cabelos! A naturalidadxe faz tudo mais bonito e não vejo necessidade de usar peruca para estar arrumada! Mas, há quem assim pense! beijos, chica
ReplyDeleteI totally get what you're saying. Natural beauty is where it's at, no need for wigs if you’re comfortable in your own skin. But some people just see things differently. Everyone has their own vibe.
DeleteSuch a great post dear! I really agree with you.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteI had no idea this was an issue. Interesting and I agree with you.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteHello, Melody! I've never worn wigs.
ReplyDeleteIt’s great to embrace your natural look.
DeleteOlá, amiga Melody!
ReplyDeleteAcredito que muitas mulheres se sintam bem ao usar peruca. Sejam negras ou não.
Há perucas que modificam completamento o rosto da mulher.
Gostei deste post, estimada amiga.
Deixo os votos de uma boa semana, com tudo de bom.
Beijinhos!

You’re right, wigs can really transform a look, and it’s all about what makes someone feel confident. Thanks for the kind words! Wishing you an amazing weekend.
DeleteA mi tía se le cayo el pelo por cancer y las pelucas le ayudaron mucho. Te mando un beso.
ReplyDeleteI’m really sorry to hear about your aunt, but it’s great that wigs helped her feel better. They can make a huge difference during tough times. Wishing her all the strength.
DeleteYes, you make a lot of great points. I can't stand wearing hats so I doubt a wig would be something I'd chose to wear. Although, if I lost my hair for a medical reason I would consider wearing them. There's an author who suffers from a medical condition that makes it so she has hardly any hair and she wears them regularly. I think they look good on her and it boosts her confidence.
ReplyDeleteI totally understand. Hats can be uncomfortable, so wigs might feel similar. It’s amazing how they can help boost confidence, though, especially for someone going through a tough time. It’s all about what makes you feel good in the end. Thanks for sharing that!
DeleteWigs can 'maybe' work in short and emergency situations. It doesn't matter if it's a woman or a man. It can be ideal especially for people who have lost their hair and are bald. However, as you said, it can cause health problems in the long term. It's important to be careful about this. I don't think people with natural hair need to wear wigs. If they wear a wig for a long time, their natural hair can fall out and they can go bald. They need to be careful about this. I agree with all your thoughts and concerns about wigs. It was a very important issue, Melody. Thank you. 🍀✔😊
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing your thoughts on this.

ReplyDeleteThank you. I didn't know this was an issue. I can only say that if someone insists that you wear something artificial to fit in (or to be beautiful) step away. Quickly.
ReplyDeleteIf anyone makes you feel like you need to wear something artificial to fit in or be beautiful, it’s definitely time to step back. True beauty comes from being yourself, no need for pressure! Thanks for sharing that.
DeleteReally interesting article.
ReplyDeleteIt had never crossed my mind!
I love your hair so much of course!
It’s always nice to get different perspectives, and I’m happy you like my hair!
DeleteNaturalny wygląd jest najpiękniejszy. Peruka? Nigdy 🙂
ReplyDeleteWigs just can’t compare when you’re rocking your own hair.
DeleteIo ano i miei capelli al naturale, non ho mai indossato una parrucca e ti dirò di più a parte taglio e piega non mi sono mai fatta toccare oltre dalla parrucchiera
ReplyDeleteKeeping it simple with just cutting and styling sounds like a solid approach.
DeleteI wasn't even aware that wigs are such a big issue for black women. In Europe, extensions are particularly popular. Overall, I imagine it would be very exhausting. Your own natural hair should always be in the foreground. A wig every now and then is certainly fine.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice day
Sabine
It’s interesting how different things are in different places. In Europe, extensions do seem to take the spotlight, while wigs have a more complex meaning in some cultures, especially for black women. I agree though, natural hair should always be celebrated. A wig once in a while can be fun, but it’s important to feel confident in your own hair too.
DeleteHere people only wear a wig when they are undergoing chemo and their own hair is falling out.
ReplyDeleteGreetings Irma
That makes sense. In many places, wigs are mainly worn for medical reasons like chemotherapy. It’s all about helping people feel more comfortable during a difficult time. It’s nice that people have that option when they need it.
DeleteMe parece una locura que puedan despedir a alguien por no llevar peluca, sea en Nigeria o en cualquier otro lugar.
ReplyDeleteNo puedo entender esa fiebre desquiciada que atormentará a muchas mujeres.
Puedo entender que alguna persona sufra por su aspecto y decida usar peluca si así se siente mejor, o por una quimioterapia para combatir un cáncer...
Pero me parece monstruoso que se presione a las mujeres de esta manera.
Mi consejo es aceptar lo que tienes de forma natural.
Ah... yo he visto a algunas mujeres negras con la cabeza afeitada, o sea, sin cabello y están guapísimas!!!
Besos.
I totally get your point. It’s really unfair that women are sometimes pressured to wear wigs just to fit a certain image, especially when they look stunning just as they are. It's sad that society creates that kind of pressure. Embracing your natural look is definitely the way to go. And yes, shaved heads can be incredibly beautiful – confidence is the key!
DeleteLa parrucca è un capo utilissimo. Ne faccio un grande uso per essere sempre in ordine.
ReplyDeleteBuona settimana
I get that! Wigs can definitely be handy for staying tidy and put together. It’s all about what works best for you.
DeleteNão me parece mal que as mulheres africanas, ou outras usem perucas. É ao gosto de cada uma.
ReplyDeleteUma boa semana.
Um beijo.
Thanks for your comment! I never said it’s wrong for anyone to wear wigs, and I totally agree that it’s a personal choice. What I was pointing out in my post is how the obsession with wigs, especially in cultural representations, can influence younger generations, sometimes affecting their confidence. I mentioned that wigs can be fun to wear, like for photos, and there’s nothing wrong with that. It’s just that, in some cases, the pressure around them can make some women, particularly black women, feel less confident. Hope that clears things up! Have a great week too!
DeleteIo non ho mai portato una parrucca ! Stanno bene ma credo che siano anche molto scomode , oltre a provocare il diradamento dei capelli e problemi al cuoio cappelluto. Vanno bene portate per un momento, ad una cerimonia ad esempio ma non oltre. Oppure vanno bene per caduta di capelli, conseguenza di una malattia. Ciao. Buona settimana
ReplyDeleteI hear you – wigs can definitely be uncomfortable if worn for too long. For special occasions, they can work, but for everyday life, it’s a different story. And you're right, they can sometimes cause issues with the scalp. Thank you.
DeleteMuch worse than women are the men who wear wigs. Almost all of them look ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteWigs are only good for taking photographs, but even those are sometimes seen to be implants.
I'm also an advocate of showing ourselves as we really are.
Have a good week.
Kisses.
I see where you're coming from. Sometimes wigs can look out of place, especially when they don't match a person’s natural look. It’s refreshing to hear you advocate for authenticity.
DeleteThanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome.
DeleteI read it with great interest because the topic is completely foreign to me. It never even occurred to me that wearing a wig was so important and influenced my life.
ReplyDeleteYou have beautiful hair and I can't even imagine hiding it under a wig. Why improve something that's perfect?
Of course, it's a matter of choice and well-being.
For me, even putting on a hat is a challenge and a last resort. My head sweats, my skin itches and I generally feel uncomfortable.
The wig is definitely not for me :)
Great article! I have new knowledge. Thank you and warm regards :)
I totally understand! It’s great that you’re so comfortable with your own hair. For some, wigs just aren’t the right fit – they can be uncomfortable. But it’s all about what feels good for each person. Thanks for your thoughtful response!
DeleteDecirte que estoy de acuerdo con lo que nos dices sobre el uso de la peluca que puede ser hasta malo para el pelo normal. Creo que hay técnicas en las peluquerías que entras con tu pelo normal y sales con uno radicalmente contrario en forma y color.
ReplyDeleteLas pelucas pueden ser de uso normal en aquellas personas que por tratamientos de quimio terapia lo pierden y no desean llevar pañuelo.
Decirte que te veo tan guapa con tu pelo natural que con el mas liso posible atado en la parte superior ya que lo único que uno te tapa mas el ovalo de la cara que otro, así que apte el peinado que quieras. Esto te lo digo con todo el respeto.
Saludos.
Thank you for your kind words, and I really appreciate your perspective. It’s true, there are other ways to change your look without a wig, like the techniques you mentioned at salons. And you're absolutely right—it's all about choosing what makes you feel confident, whether it's natural hair or a different style. It’s great to hear your thoughtful take on this!
DeleteVery interesting post. Thank you for sharing your feelings and observations with us. I didn't know much about this topic. I'll tell you that in Poland wigs are rarely worn. They are most often chosen for fun (colorful), for dressing up and cosplay, and after an illness that causes a person to lose hair. Especially women decide to wear wigs then. My colleague from work was sick and bought one like this. Now she is fine and her hair is growing back. I myself have thinning hair. It is weak and falls out after pregnancy. In our country, hair thickening, extensions or good quality wigs cost a lot. Best regards!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your experience. It’s interesting how wigs are seen differently in Poland, mostly for fun or health reasons. I’m glad your colleague is doing better and her hair is growing back. It’s a shame that hair thickening or extensions can be so expensive, though. I hope you find something that works for you.
DeleteHere in Greece, the wig has very limited use in everyday life. Only for health reasons. I can safely say that I don't see the point of someone wearing a wig for aesthetic reasons. Our natural hair is fine.
ReplyDeleteI agree with your views, Melody on the subject.
Have a good week.
Natural hair is definitely beautiful as it is.
DeleteI agree with you - I think being natural is best. I am gray haired and embrace that. My mom had alopecia - and had to wear a wig - and it was hard. I am proud of you - you are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI really admire your confidence in embracing your natural grey hair. It’s not easy when someone has to wear a wig, especially because of something like alopecia. Your support means a lot – thank you! You’re beautiful too.
DeleteGreat Post!

Thank you.
DeleteIt was a very interesting article: to be honest I've never thought very much about wigs since they're not so common here in Italy (exceptlike costumes for halloween or Carnevale) , but I get your points.
ReplyDeleteHonestly I think that they're a great option for a party or a special occasion, but definitely not everyday (unless you had lost your hair for some reason)!
Not to mention that here during summer they would be impossible to wear!

I get what you mean, especially with the heat in summer – wigs would be tough to wear! In Italy, it’s more about special occasions, but I guess it’s nice to know they’re an option for when they’re needed. Thanks for your thoughts!
DeleteI've never worn a wig in my life, but as wearing a hat for a couple of hours already gives me a headache, I'm sure I couldn't stand wearing a wig all day.
ReplyDeleteI do understand women who suffered hair loss, due to chemotherapy for instance, would want to wear a wig, but otherwise, I don't know ...
As you've got the most enviably beautiful hair - as I do think most black women do - it would be a shame to cover it with a wig, surely? xxx
I totally get what you mean. Some people wear wigs for different reasons, whether it's style or convenience. But for those of us with natural hair, it's hard to imagine covering it up, especially when it’s as beautiful as you say. Everyone has their own choice, though, and I respect that. Thanks for the kind words about my hair.
DeleteHi Melody,
ReplyDeleteI your post read with great interest. I have never had a wig and I don't know what it feels like to have hair that isn't my own on my head.
I thinks that hair is very important for women. It's very sad, sad if children and women lose their hair as a consequence of illness :( For these people wigs are very important.
Melody, I salute you!
It’s heartbreaking when illness causes hair loss, and for those affected, wigs can be a real boost to their confidence. It’s important to recognise how much hair can mean to someone, and how wigs can help during tough times.
DeleteWell, I don't know the first thing about wigs, but it's nice to meet you! How in heaven's name did a lifestyle blogger like you ever find my blog?
ReplyDeleteNice to meet you too! Funny enough, the internet has a way of connecting people. I came across your blog and found it interesting, so I decided to have a read. It’s always nice discovering new perspectives and learning from different voices. Glad we crossed paths!
DeleteWell said!
ReplyDeleteThis is a really interesting post, Melody, and a topic I'd not really thought about. Of course, we see wigs often, but I'd not connected it to the self confidence. And yet, I should have. During college I think I wore wigs for the better part of my first few years. Part of it was wanting a different look (and boy, did I have them -- short curly red; strawberry blond chin length bob with bangs; frosted and slightly longer and gently curly; brown shoulder length with bangs; long, straight blond). My own hair? Short, curly, brown. Part of it, I think, was my theatre training, but during the day I didn't have to be on stage. Or did I? Did I like how I looked better? Did I long for the long, straight blond hair every girl in high school had except me? I don't know. But when I shed them, it was glorious. Much like when I finally gave up coloring my hair and letting the natural gray take over. I'll have to be thinking about this one for a long while. All I can say is I love who I am now, and my hair, too!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your experience. It’s fascinating how wigs can serve as a form of self-expression or even a way to explore different identities. It sounds like you had a fun time experimenting with different looks, but it’s beautiful that you’ve found peace in embracing your natural self now. It’s definitely a journey for many, and I’m glad you’ve reached a place of self-love and confidence. Hair, like so much else, is part of the process of discovering who we are.
DeleteEach to their own but it's sad to hear people with influence shaming people for wearing their natural hair.
ReplyDeleteEveryone should be free to wear their hair how they like without fear of judgment. It’s important to support each other and celebrate all hair types.
DeleteHi Dear Melody, Happy New Year and I love wigs, I always think i'm going to get one to change my look.
ReplyDeleteHugs and kisses.
Hi there! Happy New Year to you too! I’m glad you love wigs, they’re a great way to switch up your look whenever you feel like it. It’s fun to experiment with different styles and express yourself in new ways.
DeleteHow interesting about wigs. I just always presumed black women had curly hair so when I have seen black women with straight hair I also presumed it was straightened, either a wig or done themselves. I don't care for wigs at all, but of course if for a medical reason, well that is very different.
ReplyDeleteI get that wigs aren’t everyone’s choice, but as you said, for medical reasons or personal preference, they can make a big difference. It’s all about what makes someone feel comfortable in their own skin.
DeleteIn my opinion, wigs can be a convenient alternative for achieving a quick hairstyle, despite their potential discomfort. However, I believe the issue lies not in wearing wigs, but in obsessing over them and investing excessive amount of money.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of Annie, I recently stumbled upon a Tiktok video featuring Annie's wig, and I couldn't help but think that if such a significant investment was made in purchasing the wig, it would be worth maintaining it properly.
I believe that well-maintained natural hair remains the best option; alternatively, a blend of natural and artificial hair can also be a great choice.
Hair, if cared for, really shines. It’s about finding what works for each individual, without letting trends or expectations dictate our choices.
DeleteYour post is interesting.
ReplyDeleteYour observations are very interesting.
Greetings.
I'm glad you found the post interesting.
DeleteI loved the way you expressed this important issue for many women, black women and also women who suffer from alopecia and for whom it is something very relevant. I think that everyone should love themselves as they are, and having or not having hair doesn't make us more beautiful, better or more elegant. More and more black women are showing looks full of style and elegance and class without using extensions or wigs, I see it a lot of times here in Paris, beauty and style do not depend on having or not hair. And you are beautiful just as you are Melody <3
ReplyDeleteTrue beauty comes from within, and it’s about embracing who we are, whether we have hair or not.
DeleteI had no idea that there is such a situation anywhere, that a wig is a sign of elegance and class. In my country, there is no such problem, wigs are only used by people who have a problem with their own hair and use them for aesthetic or sometimes medical reasons. And I do not condemn this, because I understand that in such a situation it is necessary to give yourself confidence and break certain barriers that make it difficult to function in society. But such a situation as you described is unacceptable to me and I fully support your opinion on this matter.
ReplyDeleteIt’s interesting how different cultures view wigs and beauty standards. In some places, they’ve become symbols of status or style, but I agree with you – everyone should feel confident and free to embrace their natural self.
DeleteQuerida Melody, seu relato sobre o uso exagerado das perucas me emocionou!!
ReplyDeleteVocê escreve de uma maneira que chama a nossa atenção para eventos importantes e que muitas vezes passa desapercebido. Isso é um alerta, uma matéria de utilidade pública.
Não há nada mais lindo do que o cabelo natural das mulheres negras. É imponente, chama a atenção e as deixa muito mais belas do que qualquer outra.
Os cachos e as tranças dos cabelos negros são verdadeiras obras de arte e seria até um crime colocar uma peruca por cima que causa apenas sofrimento às mulheres. Nada melhor do que a liberdade de usar os próprios cabelos, do jeitinho que Deus os criou. E Deus fez tudo perfeito.
Um texto muito importante querida, você se expressa muito bem, e tudo isso serve de alerta para a preservação da saúde de todas. Nada mais salutar do que ter orgulho dos próprios cabelos, eles são vida, a origem, o início de tudo!!!!
Beijos e obrigada por trazer informações tão importantes!
Linda semana!!!
You’re right, natural hair is a powerful thing, and we should all celebrate it in its true form.
DeleteI am speechless! It has never even occurred to me that black women with even more gorgeous hair would wear wigs! I've never worn a wig, even though my hair is thin. In the circle of friends there are people, even women, whose illness has taken away part of their hair - some of them do not wear wigs either. Unbelievable!
ReplyDeleteI can understand your surprise. It’s not something many people think about unless they’re directly affected by it. Hair is such a personal thing, and for some, wigs are a choice for style, not just necessity. It’s interesting how people cope with hair loss differently, even when faced with illness. Thanks for sharing your perspective.
DeleteEu concordo com você, nunca usei peruca,
ReplyDeleteacho que nunca vou usar.
♥️¸.•*¨)¸.•*¨)
(¸.•´♥️♥️.¸.•´♥️Beijos nas bochechas!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I totally get that. Some people just feel more comfortable embracing their natural hair, and that’s perfectly fine.
DeleteMost interesting. I had been wondering why a student of mine (from Liberia, Africa) wore a wig even though her own hair was beautiful. Your article shed some light on the subject. I think I would suffocate if I had to wear one. Of course it's a good idea for people with cancer who are losing their hair and temporarily going bald. And it's OK for those who like dressing up.
ReplyDeleteGlad you found the post interesting. It’s true, wigs can be a personal choice for many, whether it’s for fashion, convenience, or other reasons. It’s great that you understand the different perspectives, especially for those who need it for health reasons. But yes, wearing one all the time can be uncomfortable for some.
Deletevery good post!!
ReplyDeletei (57 y.o.) was thinking, that this problem was already solved in the 70s, after years of fight for black rights und the US and africa...... i was thinking wrong obvisously. straight hair (of a wig) seems still the goal of some. sad.
i´m all for "dressing up" - but much more for being proud of what you are - anyway how the gods had made you. and i dont like when women get dictated by the industry and start to be bossy against other women (like you wrote about the star and the pastor(!)).
to say something positiv: i love your gorgeous hair!
xxx
Thanks for your comment. You’re right, it’s unfortunate that this issue still lingers even after all the progress made. Being proud of who we are is key. The pressure from the industry is real, and it’s important to support each other as women. Appreciate the kind words about my hair.
DeleteVery wise post, I had no idea about this problem. I have never worn a wig and I think it is important to accept our natural appearance. Putting on a wig for a while, for fun, is quite an interesting option.
ReplyDeleteExcelente post! Muito verdadeiro.
ReplyDeletePenso que usar peruca é para encobrir alguma coisa que deixa as pessoas inseguras.
Acho válido em quimioterapia, porém hoje, aqui no Brasil, as pessoas ficam mais confortáveis não usando, doença cura, muitas pessoas não escondem mais, cabelo cresce novamente. O resto é a pessoa se aceitar, as "escovas", normalmente feitas em salões, vejo que há uma obsessão por cabelos lisos, escorridos, mas...cada um que faça o que se sentir melhor. Aquelas trancinhas feitas em pessoas negras acho lindas! Têm cabelinhos lindos, mas nós nunca sabemos quem quer modificar a aparência ou seguir moda ditada pelos outros.
Te aplaudo!
Um feliz fim de semana!
I can understand why people want to wear wigs. Whatever works for someone! I've seen some wig experts on YouTube who do a great job applying wigs.
ReplyDeleteIt is a part of culture in some countries. Still, people shouldn't feel pressured to wear wigs.
Saying to someone they are not dressed up because they don't wear a wig is terrible.
I have never worn a wig or extensions, so I don't know how it feels like. I haven't been tempted to try one yet...maybe some day for fun, but it's important to embrace our natural looks.
Usar ou não usar, caberá a cada pessoa a escolha. Porém, a necessidade será notória na Mulher, na falta de cabelo por razões de saúde.
ReplyDeleteRemediar o visual, por essas razões, pode ser necessário e os efeitos colaterais serão minimizados.
No demais (entendo) pode apenas ser uma imagem que se deseja diferente e que motiva as indumentárias usuais na moda.
Abordagem muito bem feita. Parabéns, Melody.
Beijo,

Nada como o seu cabelo natural. Mas perucas são úteis para quem não tem o seu próprio cabelo.

Kiedyś miałam perukę do jakiegoś przedstawienia w szkole i strasznie się męczyłam. Myślałam że nie wytrzymam do końca. Czułam tylko swędzenie i miałam spoconą głowę. Coś okropnego. Współczuję kobieta które muszą je nosić choć mają swoje ładne włosy.
ReplyDeletePozdrawiam Cię najserdeczniej Melody. Trzymaj się ciepło
