It’s here.
The day I promised.
The day you get to see what ebay can bring to the follically challenged – ie. me.
Ready?
Ok.
Number 1
Sighhh, isn’t it delightful?
I have several names for this.
- The Blonde Bombshell
- The Blonde Bombsite
- Blonde Ambitionless
- Brassy Beaufoix
I’m sure you can come up with better.
Something I’ve learned?
Blonde. Does. Not. Suit. Me.
Thanks Rosie for the lovely gift (yes my lovely FRIEND purchased this charming hair piece just for me), but, Hannah Montana I am not. No really. Look…
Blonde to Brunette? Naaa, I can’t pull it off, at least not this shade, hee hee.
I call this look Brunette Coquette, because lets face it, I look irresistible. ;D
And finally the best of a bad bunch…
At least the colouring isn’t so bad on me, but when you look at it from a different angle,
It’s like I have the innards of a great big Aero on my head. Not a good look in the grim light of day is it?
So my advice. Ack I have none. You’re bright enough to judge for yourselves, but if anyone ever needs a bad Daryl Hannah, Winona Ryder or Geri Haliwell look alike then I might just have a chance.

Oh wow Jo is that you?
Beautiful baby blues Beaufoix! And clear CLEAR skin.
Very young looking.
I love the colour on the last one. You could be Shirley Temple with those curls! And I love Brassy Beaufoix.
(Blonde isn’t so bad … but brunettes really DO have more fun! Honest!)

The red looks great on you!!

I think you look fab in all of them…but the hair isn’t the fab part..you are. You’re gorgeous!

I was going to say Shirley Temple for the last one as well. And no worries—ver few people can pull of that very fake shade of bleached blonde!!
In any case, wigs are fun!

Cute! The blonde one looks like one my daughter just bought. She intends however to give it a bit of a haircut as she is off to Supanova ( An anime festival) She wants to go as one of her favourite characters. Poor wig!

I think the Aero look is quite, um, sweet!
P.S. Re last post and revealing name: I remember I did exactly the same thing some months back and you very kindly emailed to let me know. I’d completely missed it in the re-reading; and I’m sure I’ll accidentally do it again. I’m not named Dumdad for nothing….

Loving the red one, totally goes with your skin and eyes. I have pretty much black (well now going gray hair) and I tried going blonde once and pretty much my hair fell out in massive chunks, so I had a wig for a bit and it was lots of fun changing looks. Have fun xx

How can you not love the curly wurly number?
Very Sex and the City meets girl next door kinda thing!
May 19th, 2009 at 3:41 am
Got to love the twists. Especially those on your head.
May 19th, 2009 at 8:12 am
Those Halliwell curls really suit you Jo!!
May 19th, 2009 at 8:45 am
The problem is, that the hair looks artificial. It has a plastic look, or nylon I should say. You actually don’t look bad as a redhead, you just need a better wig. Get a really good one, Jo, and you will be happy.

Those auburn curls look great .. making faces doesnt detract from the hair only the face.. LOL
BTW .. did you know STRESS also causes hair loss? Just sayin’ … not sure iron is the solution… I think yoga or some sort of stress-freeing something is more to the point .. again, just sayin’

From Barbie to Sense and Sensibility. You’re so versatile.

Coery I think it looks ok but when you see it in better light it is soooo fake. In the town where I live people would see it and just pull it off your head and laugh if you ever went out in it.
Thumbelina it is me. I’ll let you into a secret, I did actually cover up a spot using picnik. ;D I actually like the red too. I often go a kind of coppery coulour but I might dare to go redder now. My Uncle and Aunt on my dad’s side are both read heads so I think that’s where I get my colouring from.
Sybil thanks gorgeous. I bet you could do red as well.
Lee thanks lovely. You’re a bit gorgeous yourself. x
Susan it is a vile shade of blonde isn’t it? I’d love to have the guts to go out in a wig one day. My friend used to have a bright red cleopatra style one and she looked stunning.
Karisma, I say anything she can do to make that wig look better is a good thing, hee hee. Hope she has a fab time.
Dumdad my mate Rosie texted me. I was so glad. Like you say probably most people didn’t notice and it wouldn’t matter if they did, but I was still annoyed at myself.
Liz sorry about the hair but I love that you enjoyed your wigs so much. I’ve never dared go blonde. Maybe I will one day just to be able to say I’ve tried it. I’d get advice though, or a nicer blonde wig than this one, hee hee.
Tara I’m planning a Sex & the City night with some mates and I thought these wigs would come in handy. I reckon there’s a Carrie, a Samantha and a Charlotte here.
SPDad, twists are good.
AOJ thanks lovely. My real hair is naturally curly but not that big.
Gossamer Woman I may well do. That’s the thing that gets me, the fakeness, there is no way you wouldn’t know it was a wig. I may still get myself a human hair wig depending how long it takes my hair to recover.
Daryl I had to pull faces in those wigs because they were soooo HIDEOUS, hee hee. You’re right about stress, it does come into it as I’ve had a rough few years health wise, but yoga could be really good for me.
Iota thanks mate, hee hee. Every girl should maybe have a little of all those things. Snort.

That blonde one makes you look like a girls world/ my model scary girls toy! You know the type your kids leave in your bed just to frighten you at night!

I think the blonde really suits you! I love it! If you don’t want that wig I’ll have it, lol.
