Men's wigs/toupees.........yes or no?
Discussion
If very rich people can't get wig that looks right, then what hope for us poor people.
My hair is thinning, and when it looks bad, I'll clipper it. Short hair looks fine, and you look perfectly normal. There are a few shaved head people at work, but I'd have to think about who they are to name them (ie they are just normal looking people). You can bet that if someone had a bad hair hat, then they would stand out like a sore thumb.
I'm also not that shallow that I have to hide the fact that I'm getting older

See, i refuse to take anyone seriously if they wear something like wogans. If that's how easily they think i can be fooled then they can get fked.
Vince often spouts a lot of controversial points but I agree with him here.I find it somewhat of an insult that someone will stand talking to me, and expect me not notice they are wearing a wig. I'm not stupid! It's bloody obvious and completely off putting!
When I'm speaking to them all I can think of is:
"that's a wig"
"that's a wig"
"that's a wig"
I don't think I've ever met anyone with a wig on who I didn't think would just look better with a shaved head and that includes people who have medical conditions.
I can understand of course that there are people to whom wearing a wig provides some form of comfort from mental distress of hair loss due to illness or whatever, and without it they couldn't leave the house.
Many years ago as a youth working in my local supermarket, we had a group of 'outsiders' come in to do a stock-take.
Whilst taking my break in the staff room, a few of these stock-takers came in for a break. One bloke was sat opposite me with his back to the door. He clearly had a toupee on, and me and my mate had quietly sniggered about it.
One of his co-workers came to the door and called a name out, obviously his as he turned his head and spoke to the man in the doorway. His head might have turned, but his toupee did not. Cue man looking over his right shoulder whilst his toupee continues to face forwards.
Much mirth ensued in the staff room after that!
