If you can only imagine wigs on cabaret drag queens, clubbers in retro dress at the carwash or Cher, then it is time to alter your perception. Wigs are now ready to become the new fashion accessory for all (honestly), with the launch of NewHair. |

Yes, wigs have been around for years, but because of the birth of NewHair they now actually look authentic. This newfound realism comes from a design that allows some of the natural hair to be brushed over the wig, therefore giving the illusion that all the hair is growing out of the head! There are 45 varieties, so you can 'turn back time' and correct that disastrous mullet (that seemed like such a good idea at the time), or simply use one to change your image. There's no damage to the hair and unlike the hairdressers cut, they're not permanent. Wigs are no longer exclusively for pop divas, so forget the hairdressers for instant metamorphosis; go and buy NewHair. |
