Hi!

I was wondering about experiences with wigs? Specifically wearing them out and about.

Unfortuntely my hair is just terrible. Oiley as hell, and now I am balding to my horror lol. So wigs it is.

I have a cosplay type wig. Fantastic for reducing dysphoria and getting that euphoric feeling but its just impratical to wear on the train for example.

Anyone had success with them? Do synethic wigs work well or should I be looking for really high quality ones?

Hmm the sweat could definitely be a major issue. I'm in australia and can get very hot.

It does sound good to be able to change my hair colour like Ramona without actually dying it lol.

Welp I've decided I will play around with them and see how it goes

    Yeah, the sweat can be mitigated with wig caps and depends on how thick the wigs are and materials used. I have one natural hair wig and it's much more breathable, but more expensive and not colored, though you can get a light blonde wig and color it. Just don't recommend bleaching a wig.
