It's oft been written here about just what a difference seeing yourself fully made up and then in a wig for the first time has upon how we perceive ourselves. It's a while ago since I first experienced it but the effect is still as pronounced even now, each time I get dressed. The final act of putting on your wig is transformational. The makeup may be great but the wig ties it all together.
So imagine my surprise when the other day I went to buy a new wig opting for a fairly short length as opposed to the shoulder length I've always gone for previously. Geez, on it went and there staring back was a different, a new me. I expected it to be different but this was something else.
I suppose it's no different to a GG going for a radical restyle and everyone going "I love your new look". I just didn't expect it to be so striking. One thing's for sure. I'll never buy online again if for no other reason than it was such a lovely experience.
For info the shop was on Bridge St. in Manchester.
