I had shave my head bald for the last ten years. I started growing my hair on my birthday in September. I hope to try lace front wigs in spring.

Yes, i have a bald spot and have high hopes that my sister is right.

Hi Bobbi,

Thanks for the link. I'm sure there are many of us here who are follically challenged.

I am absolutely thrilled with my lace front wig. I had been wearing a cute human hair bob and decided to try a lace front that was closer to my natural hair color styled how I plan to wear my hair. A lace wig is so different than a conventional wig. You can part it anywhere, comb it this way and that. The new synthetic hair is amazing. It feels and looks just like my human hair wig. You can flat iron and curl it, and the cap is so light, I actually forgot I had it on. It is designed to be worn with an adhesive system so you can keep it on continuously for about a month. You can sleep in it, wash your hair in it, even go swimming in it. And the lace hairline- it's amazing. As close as looking at your own refection in the mirror, you would swear it’s growing right out of your head! At about $60 on-line this was sort of a starter lace wig for me. But I only had to wear it once to be convinced. I already purchased a full lace human hair wig that I am going to have colored to match my own hair then have it styled :)

Seeing myself for the first time with my new wig, in my own hair color, in a style close to the way I planning to wear, was an experience I will never forget. I didn’t even have on lipstick or eyeliner and would never have questioned that the reflection in the mirror was a woman. It was like a dream come true!

I have to agree, I think my favorite thing about my full lace wigs is their versatility. It's not stuck in one style I can do whatever I want with it and it still looks natural. They are a little difficult to apply and I would definitely get help or go to a trained professional until you are comfortable with it yourself but definitely try it. Let's face it Tyra, Oprah and Beyonce can't be wrong !

I never quite understood how the lace works.. how is it attached to the head, can't the lace be easily seen? Thanks for the website though, I'm always on the lookout for some good wigs.

The hair in lace wigs is attached much like a hooked rug. It does not have a set lay and can be styled however you chose to part it. The hairline is extremely natural so the hair doesn't have to cover the skin around the edges. The lace is secured to the skin around the hairline with adhesive tape or glue. Lace wigs can be worn continuously for upwards of a month, in the shower even swimming.

I have a lace front that I simply wear like a conventional wig since I don't wear it for more than a day at a time. You can't do that with a full lace wig as they don't have a stretchy cap and must be secured with adhesive. I love the synthetic I got from Beverly Johnson!

Thanks so much!

      Just waking up so I'm in my pajamas - blue/white madras shorts, a navy blue t-shirt and my sleep bra with sleep-rated breast forms.   Thank you @Susan R for telling us about your mastectomy bra and forms fitting experience before your BA surgery and how sleeping in the bra/forms helped with the dysphoria.    First, hearing about your courage to get fitted gave me the confidence and courage to go out in public.   And, second, finding sleep mastectomy bras and sleep-rated breast forms (I found a set on eBay for a good price) has been a tremendous boost to my feeling comfortable in my pajamas and nightgowns and tamping down my dysphoria and dysmorphia.

      If you could talk for 1 hour about any topic without preparation, what would it be? Mine would be music especially classic rock era.

      Germany has more castles than there are McDonald's in the United States. Yep, you heard that right. Germany is estimated to have 25,000 castles, and there are around 13,000 McDonald's locations in America.   In Washington state, there's a real-life law stating it's illegal to kill bigfoot and other sasquatch-like creatures.

      DREAD f you’re anticipating something positive, you’re probably motivated to summon all your patience to wait for it—and sometimes for extended time periods. It may be counter-intuitive, yet in certain instances such waiting can itself be gratifying. Consider Carly Simon’s song “Anticipation,” the old Heinz ketchup ads, and—especially—recent research pointing in the opposite direction as regards awaiting something highly aversive. In this post I won’t be reviewing ketchup commercials, but I will be exploring some intriguing research on dread-infused anticipation.

      So an update from me.   Had my endo appointment last night. Went very well and they are sending 3 months supply of estrogen (estradoil patches) and the anti-androgens whilst my Dr gets a shared care agreement sorted out. So happy, should start HRT tomorrow!! Cost for the 3 month supply is £70 total for me, so not too bad. Not told my parents about this yet, but them being in spain, not sure they need to know yet.   Can't wait to start, just got to think about where to put the patches now and wait for the changes...

      Good Morning    well it’s Friday for most, pay day for some.  For me it’s pay day but not Friday.  I work the same opening shift tomorrow.  I typically have Friday on Saturday and Monday on Tuesday.     @KymmieL it does sound like your shop has an issue and you are smack in the thick of it.  The new gal or guy often is.  We have an issue with new people not getting fully trained before being turned loose on customers.  Some struggle through it and some quit because of it.  I try to get them working with customers as quickly as I can but I stay right with them observing, helping, even jumping in when things are getting backed up to keep the stress down.  Not everything comes up during training so when things do, even later after trying is done, I try to help and explain.  Our ASM feels that once she has you scanning barcodes and taking money she is done training.  Generally, refuses to train me on things that she does, and questions why I’m doing something that she normally handles when I’ve been told to do it as part of my advancement training.     She and the cashier involved both keep trying to toss the manager under the bus over a hours of work issue and shifts.  I tell her I realize her issues and I’ll work what ever she needs.  Because of that I tend to get a better more consistent schedule.   Well, time to say Happy Trails to you, until we meet again.   Hi ho Silver, away   Willow

      That does get you the 'starting point' for cup size, but manufacturers, style, breast shape, etc... will effect the results.    Step one is of course finding the proper band fit, then figuring out the approximate cup size with the calculations. Of course you need to try on a few styles after that in different cup sizes close to your measured result until you get the perfect fit.    I have bras in a DD that fit just like my bras in DDD both from Torrid but different styles.    I have some DDD's that fit awesome and some that are a bit loose, but I measure a 46G. It's not wonder that 80% of women are wearing them wrong bra.

      I firmly believe I drank entirely to much for about 25 years. Got drunk every day. This was my coping mechanism to keep hiding deep inside that I was a woman. I miss a lot of signs over the years. Now I drink mabye 1 or 2 beers a day don't even get a buzz anymore. totally accept myself and on regret is that I hide that part of my self which  truly makes me happy being violet 💜. I wasted a lot of time before  being self destructive and had no clue I was just hiding th real me
