I've gotten some hate mail from the Wig Justice League I couldn't bring myself to attempt it until I got to my 11th wig in collection, but now since I have one under my belt I think I could do another 5 or 6 as necessary.

Well that depends... are they original model or the 1742 updated model with the elastic around the back which prevents them from being blown off in strong gusts of wind?

I looked more closely and this particular wig looks to be the 1746 version with Velcro® hat attachment feature. I looked on Wikipedia and they invented that technology in response to Jacobite uprising. Edited November 20, 2020 by evancelt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
