Welll I live in Costa Rica so we have these tropic hot and humid weather, and I could say I can pretty much handle it, It is pretty much like having your own hair back and if you get hot you just wear a high pony tail! Cause with regular wigs you just can’t Maybe you have became a bit to used of no having hair ah? Hope you have give it a try they can be expensive but for me they are worth it. just try to find out on different websites and if you have the chance try them before buying

Thanks for the …
Thanks for the suggestion! I haven’t tried full lace wigs and will check them out. How are they as far as warmth? My main problem with wigs is how they keep heat into your scalp and make you feel too warm.

Have you ever tryed full lace wigs? I believe it gis you a completely 24 hour hair back.

Thanks, Laura! You’re such a role model for all of us bald gals! Keep up your wonderful work.
I will keep shining (but now use a product on my head to reduce THAT particular kind of shine.) (;-)

Wonderful Mary!!! …
Wonderful Mary!!! And I couldn’t agree more. Once people get over the initial shock of it, they begin to accept it and then no longer even notice it as strange. I lost my hair at 11 and wore wigs for 19 (pretty miserable years). I’ve been The Bald Chick for 10 years now and love it! You look beautiful! It’s really an unexpected beauty…that I think makes it even more profound!
Have a bright and blessed lifetime!
Keep Shining!

Mary, I’m so proud of you. You are very courageous to share such a creative and comfortable solution to wearing a wig or proposing to go bald. Whether you choose to wear the Turkish scarf, a wig or go bald, you have demonstrated both inner and outer beauty. You have shown that hair or no hair, you are beautiful because you have been created in God’s image. May you go from strength to strengh.
