@LilacTree, I agree about the wigs seen on tv -- too shiny and too much hair. They look like hats sitting on top of the heads.

I have long hair and wanted to buy a wig just for a change and for fun. Wendy Williams knows how to do a wig -- close to the scalp, sometimes with roots showing and a faux scalp line in the part and not at all synthetic looking. I couldn't find her wigs for sale on-line.
@SaRina
I agree. I don't know who Wendy Williams is, but I will try to research her wigs also.

I forgot to say another reason I probably can't wear a wig is because my scalp is so sore and the clips hurt.

Thanks @IG. I've seen this and other similar sites. Not sure if they are reputable and just use celebrity photos for similar wigs they sell. Only a couple of the ones featured look good. I'd rather see an official Wendy Williams wig site where she is endorsing her wigs for sale. :-)

You can make a hairpiece out of your hair.When you cut it be sure to have a rubber band and wrap around the end that was cut from your head .Have your daughter hold it tightly and wrap band around the end...then you can use as a bun at yor nap of the neck like in a figure eight .We did it in the shop all the time...shampoo the piece just like you do your hair but you have to be careful that end is secure with rubber band....comb hair with wide tooth comb or wig brush.....Lay flat to brush or comb make sure the hair is dry......

If I had a lot of unwanted hair to get rid of, I'd buy one of those thingys on QVC. However, that is not the case. I can surely tweeze out three or four hairs from my upper lip every week or so.

She may already know this. She was in the business for over 30 years. But I copied and printed it out . . . thanks!!!

I went there and I recognized her from TV. Just never connected the two. I looked at a lot of wigs, but they don't have much in white, and their website is confusing because I typed in "white" and there were mostly dark wigs. I did eventually find a couple and I put them in a cart, but I'm not sure about it.

I'd like to have a shoulder length wig with bangs and no part so I could just plop it on my head, pull some of my own hair through and use a couple of bobby pins. Don't know if anything like that exists.

I just wanted to say that I loved the shorter, layered cut you had in your previous avatar pic!
@KingstonsMom
That was also long hair, IG, just worn up. I can't remember when I had short hair, but I do remember that it was still dark then and I've been going white since I was in my early sixties. Used to dye what I called my "skunk stripe." When I retired, I did cut it shorter to let the white grow in and haven't changed it since.

I can't put anything on my scalp because the RA has made it chronically sore, so even if I didn't like it being white I wouldn't be able to do anything about it. So no dyes, no perms, even some shampoos are no-no. I can only use Dove.

I am in the process of the stripe stage.

I've got short, dark hair with lots of silver in it and was lightening it a shade or two lighter so the silver wasn't as noticeable.

Last time I went to have it cut, I said no more to the lightening - I was tired of it and sitting there for over an hour - it was a freeing moment!

Two more hair cuts and it should be all be gone.

I did the same with gel manicures. Just looked down at my hands one day and said to myself, wow, that's really ugly - even though it was a plain french manicure - had it all taken off about 5 years ago and have never gone back.

I think you should be daring and do something like Katy Perry's sassy undercut. Has everyone seen her new "break-up" haircut (from Orlando Bloom) -- at least that's what the media is calling it. I think it's outrageously beautiful on her. I would do it.

I saw them talking about this on some show last night and a hairstylist was saying that it's a great cut but a lot of work to get that look. It's not a wash-and-go kind of cut, or even one with a quick dry and finger styling. Personally I love short hair and I wish I could pull it off.
