    Hey Ladies, I was looking at getting a wig for my halloween costume and mentioned it to another female friend. She gave me a list of recommendations and i was surprised to learn she has about 8 wigs at home. She uses them for going out, if she wants a particular style and doesn't want to go through the time of styling or the damage to her hair. I would have thought wearing a wig would be obvious but i've never notcied on her. She has a few female friends who do this as well. I was curious to see if this is generally done as i think its quite a clever idea. Any opinions?

    I use hair extensions thre odd time, maybe once or twice a year, but I dint think Id be happy with a wig. I only wear them at halloween and my go God do they itch!!! Then there is always the fear of it coming off in public.

    Haven't tried it, but I would love to if I could find a place that sold them. I've never seen them in the shops or anything.

    I've seen them on ebay but I'd rather have a look at them in real life / shops first.

    They would be very handy to just throw on if I wanted a different hair colour / style for an evening.

    I use clip in hair extensions from time to time. You wouldn't know they weren't real.

    Wouldn't wear a wig though, i'd be afraid it would come off.

    I got mine from 'Hot hair' (think that's the name) shop in Debenhams on Henry Street.

    They're the Jessica Simpson/Ken Paves extensions. The synthetic ones are around 100 euro for 19", but the real hair ones are about 400 euro.

    Even my hairdresser thinks the synthetic ones are very realistic so I wouldn't bother spending 400 on the human hair ones.

    Wigwam in Powerscourt shopping centre in Dublin sells them. Pretty expensive though :eek: http://www.wigwam.ie/fashion_wigs.html
