I've been missing in action, because I've been feeling guilty. I've been toying with the idea of getting a wig for some time - like 6 years! I have hair - but it's very thin and I don't have a lot of it, which means that I can't do the cute styles that I like. It also seems, in the last year - my hair is becoming more unpredictable in what it will do and it's just blah. So anyways, over the last couple of weeks, I've been to a place that specializes in just wigs - and tried some on and in different styles and colors. I narrowed it down to 2 that I really like and that look good on me. I went back on the weekend and bought 1 wig (at $300 they are not cheap!) but this is money that I had saved, so no going into debt over. The Hair kit I also bought, which includes the stand, wig shampoo, wig conditioner and wig hair spray and special brush, was an extra $45.
- I only plan on wearing the wig for now, on the weekends and vacation - not ready to wear it to work - as I don't want my co-workers to think I'm crazy.
- I love the color and style and feel great when I'm wearing it, but I'm feeling really guilty about spending the money, not only that, I want to get the other one also, down the road, as it's a different style and color to the one I just got and it will be nice to have the options of what I want to wear. I know it's frivolous spending and that is why I'm feeling super guilty.
I think as long as it's in your budget a little frivolous spending is okay. We all have our own choices on frivolous things-purses, eating out, electronics. It's up to the individual how they want to spend. I say don't feel guilty, and enjoy your new look!
