We love to see our customers share their wig wearing journey as we know how much they can inspire others in a similar position. Michelle has kindly, and bravely, shared more about her experience with wigs, and how they make her feel.
Michelle’s journey with wigs
Michelle has been wearing wigs for just over 2 years and has now found the confidence to experiment with styles that don’t look like her natural hair. Today, we find out more about Michelle’s story, and how she got to the place she is at today.
Did you have any hesitations about wearing wigs for the first time?
“My biggest concern was that a wig would look fake or even worse, fall off!”
Michelle is not alone in worrying about her first wig falling off. It’s a scary journey, but really, you’re not alone. We’ve put together a step-by-step guide on how to put on a wig so that you feel comfortable and confident from the get-go.
How many wigs do you have in your collection?
“I have more than 10 wigs in my collection.”
How often do you replace your wigs?
“So far, I’ve not replaced any of my wigs. I just keep buying more and more!”
Which is your go-to, human hair or synthetic hair wigs?
“I have only tried synthetic wigs due to their lower price tag. Despite my reservations at the start, I love experimenting with the different styles and I fell in love with the sassy colour and versatility of the Petite Portia wig from the Orchid Collection. I love buying jewelled hair grips to use now that I have ‘hair.’ I wore the Portia wig on our anniversary cruise for the formal dress up night and felt amazing.”

What advice would you give to someone who is new to the world of wigs?
“Initially, do plenty of research on the different types of hair, styles, caps etc. and always buy from trusted places. Endeavour to experiment with different colours and styles, but always check the returns policy before purchase.”
