confession #8: i don’t own wigs!

Dear fairies,

So, today I will talk about wigs. My confession is that I don’t own any fashion wigs and it’s possible I might not ever. 

I really do like wigs, especially if they’re the right color and are  gorgeously styled.Though I notice many other western fairies favor wigs. Why is this? The only things I can think of would be that some sweet lolis carry their wigs over to fairy kei or that some fairies are not up for committing to dyeing their hair, which is understandable.

Personally, I think wearing a wig never quite has the same effect as when you dye your own hair. It's almost like the color becomes a part of you as opposed to something like makeup where you can take it off easily.

I kind of like it when you can see the natural hair color coming through in brightly colored dyed hair.

I do think in Japan they are more compelled to alter their appearances in fashion because of their strict society and can get out of their boundaries a little. Therefore, I do think dying one’s hair is one of the “safest” sorts of self-expression since I’ve tinted it different colors several times myself.

In conclusion, while I really do like wigs, I would rather dye my hair an unnatural color than wear wigs. I love my own hair and it’s inexpensive compared to buying many wigs in all colors considering I don’t dye it very often (and I can change colors easily!).
