Jacqueline's Natural Hair Care Cafe': Mo' Better Hair

Last evening, while watching a television program, my 32 years young daughter became quite annoyed by seeing this absolutely beautiful woman wearing a wig that was too much and not at all flattering. She turned to me and said...please write a blog on how to wear wigs and hair pieces....so here it is....Mo' Better Hair.

In years past...wigs and hairpieces are primarily accessories...however they have become a staple for many... along with the fact that they are a blessing for those who had and have cancer and other challenging chronic health issues.

The average person usually purchases Wigs and Hairpieces for emergencies, quick fixes, a new look,

another look, enhancements, and the list goes on.

I have been wearing hairpieces since I was in high school, 1970....a very long time. My main reason at that time was how much fun I had matching my hair styles, aka wigs...to match my outfits. I had a blast...

short one day, long the next day, curls one day, and on and on.

This happened as a result of working in the wig department at the department store while I was a senior in high school. It turned out that I have a natural gift when comes to choosing the perfect color and style for myself and others. I was so good that a customer sent the department store owner a letter thanking me for the great service and personal attention given her...when she purchased her wig. Well, right after I graduated college...I went to cosmetology school and now I am almost 40 years in the hair and beauty industry.

I've decided to Google the internet and share my personal testimony and forward the five following websites.

Most people do not believe I have on a wig when they meet me. That is because I do not treat a wig....like a wig. I treat a wig like it is my own hair.

I cut, style and curl....I use great shampoos and conditioners...(The same products I would use on my own hair)...I wear hats and scarves, head-bands, flowers, and any type of hair ornament I chose.

I choose colors that really compliment both my complexion and my wardrobe.

I take care of my hairpieces and wigs daily, weekly, and monthly. I comb and brush daily what I wear. I use electric rollers on my synthetic pieces to refresh them...after washing them. After they are dry and styled, again... I store them in a container. Again I care for them like they are my own hair.

So, whether you are wearing wigs and hairpieces or you know someone who has to wear wigs or hairpieces...be mindful that what we think is what we are... and do not treat a wig and hairpiece like a wig or hat or something that is fake and a bother....the energy and message is what others receive from us. When you focus on and act like you are wearing a wig or hairpiece, people will focus on and treat you like you are wearing one.

RELAX, anyway...it's just a wig...it's just a hairpiece. Like India Arie sang..."I Am Not My Hair".....You are not your wig and hairpiece.

Finally, You may be able to find a salon or ask your own stylist about customizing your wig and hairpieces for you. The great thing about buying a wig and hairpiece today is... they are made in hundreds of lengths, styles, and colors......and even the prices are great, now. So, there you have it...for Mo' Better Hair....wigs and hairpieces....make it you...make it yours....make it Mo' Better!
