Hello everyone and welcome to a frigid Thursday here in fantasy land, where I have decided to become…The Other Woman — at least for today, lol.
I’m so sick of my hair. Luckily, I have wigs and hats, so today, I am rocking both to see 1) if I can stand it and 2) if it’s a look I can feel comfortable pulling off. I tell you what, they are hot! I mean, I look hot (just kidding) but they are warm and the feeling of heavy hair on my neck is warm and scratchy. I’ve probably been holding my head a certain way all day too, which is making my neck sore, but I want to see what my man thinks of my new look. Knowing him, he will act nonchalant, like it’s no big deal. But it is a big deal to me.
I never realized how much hair affected my self esteem. If I had cancer and was losing my hair, I could understand that so much better. Anyway, I want your opinion. I took a couple of selfies with it on, one with my hair behind my ear, and one with the wig like it normally lays. Another bothersome thing is wearing my ear buds hurt really bad, probably from the combo of the wig and the hat pressing on my ears. I don’t like the look of the wig by itself because I need that poof on top which this wig doesn’t have and my other one has too much!
So, take a look, and give me your honest opinion. I would also consider cutting the length to get it off my neck, if that is an option y’all come up with. Okay. Thanks a lot for visiting fantasy land and I appreciate you playing along.
I just realized I suck at selfies, lol!

I like the hat look. Makes you look very confident, “bring it on” attitude. Not many can wear a hat and pull off “the look”.

Thank you for your honest opinion, and the compliment. I appreciate it. What did you think about the wig under the hat?

Thanks! Um, he did not like The Other Woman. But I did. Now what? I asked him if maybe I cut the wig a little so it’s shorter, like my hair. He was not helpful in his answer. Maybe he just needs time to get used to it? I know I need to get it fitted so it fits my head properly. I tried to explain to him hat I am not ready to go gray, and that I don’t like my real hair. I can’t do anything with it that doesn’t make it look like I’m trying to hard. He just doesn’t get it. He loves me for who I am. I get that. But I want to be happy with my image. Is that wrong? Don’t worry, I will keep working on it til I find a solution that works for both of us! 😘

I agree with Tre what really matters is what you think not everyone else! I completely understand that you are self-conscious of your image. I am that way about every visible image on my body. It bothers me even if it doesn’t bother anybody else. I am still going through learning to accept the things I cannot change about myself, and to change the things I can. You are changing what you can about your hair, now it is just about figuring out what YOU like best! What gets us confidence is having opinions from those that we love and I get that! Something I always try telling myself is “That It Could Always Be Worse.” I love you no matter what, regardless of whether you have long hair, grey hair, or no hair!

It doesn’t look bad at all. I like both the hat and the wig. They both seem to suit you well.

Aw, thank you so much, Tre! I appreciate your comments. I just wish my hubby liked it, but maybe he will in time. It’s was kind of a shock seeing me in it yesterday, and his reaction hurt my feelings. But I wonder if he thinks it looks too young for me at my age or what. It’s my hair and I have to live with it, so I will keep trying to work on making it look more like mine, or go find another one that does!

Oh, and I’m going to FaceTime with my cousins today, so I will get their opinion as family and see what they have to say!

You’re most welcome! Just remember, this is about you and how YOU feel about changing your look. People will always have their own opinions. Whatever you feel deep down and if you’re satisfied is all that matters. Good luck!
