Bay Area Wig Shop


Recommended Posts

As some of you know I've been struggling with wigs, what style, quality, caps etc. I think I mentioned this particular wig shop in other posts but thought I'd help out others that live in or around the California Bay Area by making a dedicated thread.

My wife has bought a couple hair pieces and I've now bought a couple wigs from a shop in Campbell (San Jose Area) called Wig 'N Out. It's a professional wig shop, not one of those stores that carries wigs, they do nothing but wigs. The owner is a lovely woman that used to be a nurse that worked with Cancer patients and decided to help in another way.

To date, the only people tat know of my trans status (outside online) is my wife, therapist and the owner of this shop (kinda hard to keep that a secret when purchasing wigs hehehe). She was wonderful about it and my wife actually sat there having a great conversation with her which we all enjoyed.

I also wrote a yelp review (http://www.yelp.com/biz/wig-n-out-campbell-2)

She carries both human-hair and synthetic wigs and also recommends a particular hair stylist that works with men/women/trans to trim and style. The wig I already had doesn't require styling or trimming but the wig on order will require some work. My wife spoke to the stylist about this during her appt and while he stated that no one would care if I sat there in the general area having my hair 'done', they do have a small private room that can be reserved if the client is self conscious, which sadly, I still am, in public.

In any case, I recommend this shop to anyone that wants a wig.

      I hope that there is some kind of justice. It's very sad and it doesn't even mention the family and I could only imagine how they feel.

      It's kinda weird how these people are so worked up over making these laws.  They would have no effect on cis people either way.  Yet they are the ones with the obsession.  They ought to just stay out of trans people's business.

      Bean burritos are still popular in my family.   Black eyed peas are the one legume I'm not fond of.  I need to add lots of onions. And of course always cook your pintoes with fat-meat.  And for y'all yankees, navy beans with a big ol' ham bone are hard to beat.

      Seek out community, not just online but in person if possible. Making trans friends is a pretty quick and easy way to gauge if you have much in common with them.

      Glad to be home and did go out for a walk this morning.Good thing is that went good.Still taking it easy

      It certainly could be classed as dark humor.  Unfortunately the sentiments alone must hurt young trans folks.  Decency and reality doesn't seem to be in the GOP's vocabulary.   Hugs,   Charlize

      Good morning all,    It’s a frosty morning here the lawn looks silvery, and the uncovered spring flowers have icy edges on their leaves. The only flower bed I covered was my tulips. As nice as it is here during the day, our clear wind free nights allow the temperatures to drop into the mid twenties. Here in our growing zone it’s recommended that you not plant delicate plants until Mother’s Day. Central Indiana can have snow as late as the third week of May. The birds are active at the feeders, I’ve had my cup of yoghurt and morning meds. So I’ll sit here, drink coffee and watch the as the sunrise chases the frost from the yard.    @awkward-yet-sweet I could eat black eyed peas as a side for every meal. Boil them plain or with fatback. Served as a leftover, just add in a little Rotel Original Diced Tomatoes & Green Chilies.  Make the best of your day,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Had a weird dream last night.
    • Mirrabooka
      Morning, y'all. Evening here; we had the regulation three mugs full today. Now it's time to drink something else.     No big plans here either, eldest daughter and granddaughter will be arriving on Saturday, and we will have our granddaughter to ourselves for a week after that. We still have plans though. Tuesday we'll go to the swim center, Wednesday we'll take a road trip to visit my mom, Thursday we'll get some mulch delivered to top up the gardens.   I still make other small plans on a daily basis though. The things I do plan nowadays, which is a bit new for me, is that after pinching a nerve and ending up in a bit of pain and getting some treatment from the physio, I am more motivated than ever to exercise more regularly. Tuesday for example, I went for a short (15 minute) early morning walk, went to the pool for some hydrotherapy, and mowed the lawns. Yesterday I did my exercise reps and spent some time on the exercise bike. Today, I went for a 45-minute walk, tomorrow I will do my reps again and go for a long bike ride. As long as I do at least one thing every day, right? The pleasing thing is that I'm losing weight! I blew out to above 95kg early in the year and I'm just under 91kg now. Yay me!
