What did you use for "Hair" before you had a wig?
Back in the day when us older CDs started and were kids,(Early 1960's) WIGS were both very expensive and very hard to find. in my early CD days (12-14) I had access to everything I needed EXCEPT hair---boys wore short hair then too.
I figgured that if I didnt have long hair, I could HIDE that fact.---I tried first a scarf---Tied under my chin, but I hated THAT look----I looked like an old lady or some kind of european refugee IMO. SO I tried other arrangements that worked--Such as the scarf around my head and the ends looped and tied around my neck---as was fashionable in some situations then. Also I tried a scarf around my head---tied in back or in front at my forehead---These looked good also and also worked great with a wide brimmed straw hat.
The best, substitute, for a wig, however was one of the sort of tall, fake fur hats,(Quite popular then) of my mothers, that covered the entire top and back of my head---it even gave a sort of a "Hair look"---I used the hats and scarfs until my mother finally got a wig in 1965---
