I'm struggling with my hair regrowth. I used to have long hair and a fringe. Now I have extremely curly 3 inch doormat on my head.
I'm considering a wig for this period but the idea of turning up at work suddenly with perfect hair just feels so strange. Of course everyone will know it's a wig but also it's another layer of feeling strange in my inside...
I have a memory from many years ago before cancer when I was at a corporate event and I saw a woman with really really beautiful hair. Like I couldn't stop staring at it it was so perfect. I went up to her and told her her hair was amazing and she didn't seem happy... She made a comment to her friend and walked off. I struggled to understand the encounter until I worked out that her hair was probably actually a wig and by calling it out as perfect I had actually revealed it was too perfect
Anyway... Does it feel weird to wear a wig knowing that what people see and are responding to is different from what's underneath?
