Self conscious about wig

Even though I didn't wear mine heaps it was invaluable at work. It's not that I was embarrassed about my BC. But as a professional needed to be able to do my job without spending most of my day explaining my BC to others and also ultimately comforting them and reassuring them that I was ok. It was also lovely to have for the wedding I went to. Apart from that I was really comfortable in my bandana. I loved them and never felt awkward in them. The trick is to be confidant in whatever you wear. I once went out to dinner in my wig. Half way through the night the waiter(who was bald) came up to me and asked me what shampoo I used as my hair was so shiny!!!Apparently the other waitresses were commenting on my lovely hair. Well the poor guy, my girlfriends and I all burst out laughing and I told him I had the same hairdo as him!!! He was embarrassed but I assured him it was ok. My wig was expensive, but on the occasions I wore it, I felt good in it. I think I was lucky as I felt ok in both the wig and the bandanas. In North Queensland it was just too hot for the wig all the time. I was never as brave as Sam to go completely bald. Mind you Sam looks amazing bald. Good luck. Paula :)
