To wig or not to wig…

A woman’s hair is her beauty.
To go without it shows her strength.
-Anonymous

Okay, here is my delima. Mark has a big “Business Casual” Awards Banquet tonight, and I have my outfit all picked out…. except I don’t know what to do with my hair.. or lack there of.

I have been sitting here all morning trying to look at these two pictures and decide which one looks best, and honestly I think both of them look fine in their own way. I lean more towards “bald” because, well… its just me. But I also like the “wig look” for this event because I don’t want to stand out (too much!)

My mom said that everyone at his office has seen me bald for so long that wearing a wig would make me stand out… so I am bringing it to you.

Which do you prefer? Wig or no wig… that is my question.

    Heather, I don’t think you could go wrong either way. You look beautiful with or without. However…… if everyone in the office is used to seeing you without your wig, you just may end up being more comfortable without it. You can’t go wrong; so, just go with your gut and HAVE FUN!!!!!!

  2. Oh Heather…if I looked as beautiful as YOU look bald:wub: …I’d be so glad to have the choice. Though the wig looks natural, you’ve been known well by these people as YOU are…look what Easton says…perfectly said. And daughters know best! :heart: Which do you feel more comfortable with?
    What is your outfit like? Are you accessorizing? Do you do scarves or bands? Geee, I read through some of the responses but did not want them to influence mine. Is it HOT weatherwise?

    If HOT, I’d GO bald and beautiful! If cold, I’d cover up with that charming wig…but it just doesn’t seem like you! :silly: But I really like the first comment about a new beginnning…SO

    GO BALD …did you already ask hubby Mark what he prefers? It is his and yours special time together. Awards…wooohooo!!!
    JUST ENJOY and SMILE a whole lot! If you are tallying votes…
    eenie meanie..mynie mo…which one will go….with my choice of clothes???

    I VOTE with Easton:angel: …BALD!!!! She knows ROCK ON :whistle:

    When I first came upon your site I was struck by how beautiful you are. With hair or without, you are one of the most beautiful women I’ve seen. You would be a knockout even without the “hair.” I would do what is most comfortable.

  5. Amanda says:

    i would lean towards bald—you look gorgeous either way!! let your husband decide!!! Have a great time! God bless!;)

  6. Michelle says:

    I wanted to read through all the other comments but there are SO MANY! Do you read them all??? :)

    I agree with Easton, go bald! I agree with all that you look beautiful either way but that it will be hot and uncomfortable, and if you normally live day to day without the wig, then NO WIG! Be yourself and don’t give yourself something to worry about.

    Have a great evening!

    Hey Sistah!!! I do luv the wig, you know new beginnings, a night of not thinking about anything else but being with your loving husband and enjoying every moment. And hey if it does get hot do whatever you feel comfortable..you know what!! I would rent a convertable, put the top down whip off the wig after and just go for a ride before you go home!! Hugz Lorie :biggrin:

    There’s no doubt you are beautiful with or without hair, but I think the wig makes you look extra sassy :) !

    You look great either way, but the wig brings a nice contrast in color to your eyes. It might be fun to wear for just one night.

    Wow! That wig looks beautiful. But it isn’t you. You earned the real hair that is growing back by enduring a very huge challenge. Although I often look at hair as an accessory, I am voting for al naturale! You are gorgeous either way, so no matter what you choose, you are bound to be a knockout!

  11. Spunky says:

    I could go either way. But given the late hour, I really want to know what you decided???

    Hope I’m not too late to add a thought…but I agree with your mom. I’ve seen so many pictures of you bald that when I enlarged the bald picture, I thought, “How pretty.” Nothing else. Just pretty.

    So bald is my vote!

    (The wig picture is very pretty too, but it just doesn’t look like you to me!)

    I totally think no wig-maybe i’m used to seeing you that way, but you do bald so well!

  17. Jess says:

    You look wonderful bald, however that wig was super cute too. Get dressed up and see what you feel like then. You can’t lose either way – you’re GORGEOUS! Let us know which look you went with….

    Oh My Goodness Heather, You are especially beautiful, More beautiful daily. I love what Easton says , and she knows cool when she sees it.

    But my qyestion has to do more with comfort. Isn’t the wig hot? Are you going to be in a hot stuffy filled with people ball room? No need to turn up the heat (well except for Mark).

    Have a wonderful time celebrating the gift this man is and have fun.

    because of Jesus, Bobbie

    When I was bald from chemo, I wore wigs out of the house. I didn’t want people looking at me and thinking, “Ohhh…that woman must have cancer.” But if you’re going to be with people who all know you and have seen you bald already, that won’t be something you even need to consider.

    I do remember, though, that when I was wearing a wig, I was constantly adjusting it, which probably drew attention to myself, anyway, lol.

    You truly are stunning either way, so just do whatever feels natural to you. :)

  22. Rebecca says:

    Heather you are the most beautiful bald woman I’ve ever seen. I vote go bald :) Have a great time whatever you decide!!

  24. It’s too late to vote for you, but I think they both look great. That wig looks so natural. That may be a really stupid thing to say (please forgive me if so!). I’ve never looked at wigs before.
