My new "hair"

Not to be outdone by Eileen (Cypress Cynthia), I'm posting a picture of my new wig.  Yep, I've gone blonde.  This is about the color I colored my hair when I used to color it.  Several years ago I let it go gray and I thought I was happy with gray hair, so I've been buying gray wigs.   I don't think I'll ever go back to gray (or at least until I change my mind).  And I can be gray, red, brown, black, or blonde with the blink of an eye.  Not so bad. 

You might be able to see my eyelash extensions and permanent makeup.  I have NO other eye makeup on. 

I've come to terms with this no hair thing and this wig really helped because my own hair never looked this good.  .  It's been over 2 1/2 years since my last chemotherapy and I guess this is how it's going to be for me - either a hat or a wig.   I'm just one of the unlucky ones whose hair did not fully return after Taxotere. 

So happy 66th birthday (tomorrow) to me.   I guess you could say I have had "work done" because of my phoney hair and eyes.  Frankly, I know a few women my age that should try it!

    Wow!

    Hi Suzanne,

    You look beautiful!  i would never in a million years guess your age.  66 is young, but you look way younger than that.  Whatever you are doing, keep doing it!!

    Happy Birthday one day early.

    I saw this photo on the expressions page and thought it was your hair.  It does not look like a wig and it is beautiful and so flattering.  But then you are a very pretty lady.  Your makeup is marvelous also.

    The real me is on my Expressions page

    Thank you all for the compliments.  Of course, I would never post a photo of myself that wasn't flattering!  Except, if you're interested, I just took a photo of the real me.  When I wear a hat, it just looks like I have a short haircut and am wearing a hat.  The color will grow out and I'll try again for a blonde vs. whatever the heck this is.
