But, "my" actually first wig was one that was a hand me down from my ex's father had given to her (I'm not sure why, other then there was this big thing in her family about being able to change hair styles at the drop of a hat. Finally I did coerce my ex-wife in to buying one specifically for me. And at of all places Kmart. I remember it well, it was called Farah.. Yes, Farah Fawcet, (god rest her soul). (remember the famous photo and her all to famous hair with it's layered curls?!) I had to have it!<br /><br />Previous to that and marriage, it was always my moms. She'd had a few for similar reasons, they marketed convenience back then.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing and all that you do! for those of us who really appreciated a femulated lifestyleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-44484567721652436842011-09-05T14:16:38.580-04:002011-09-05T14:16:38.580-04:00My first and only wig was purchased about 1975 and...My first and only wig was purchased about 1975 and was a dirty blonde chin length BOB--very tailored feminine put together look. I was dressed as a male but there was no double in my sales lady's mind that I was going to wear it and she encouraged me to try it on, which I did. There was one other woman customer in the shop at this time and sales lady commented "oh I just know you're going to have fun in that one. Her comment and smile made my week-month. It was about $100.00. <br />But not long after that I began letting my own hair grow and am able to style my own hait in a similar BOB. Only my wife ever saw me in my wig.
