  • I dealt with warm weather by taking off my head scarf and going bald in public.

    That’s a helpful topic! Warm weather can definitely make things uncomfortable, so tips like these are really useful. It also shows how important clear info is when dealing with heat even small things like converting what is 70 degrees fahrenheit in celsius can make a difference in understanding temperature.

    I tried Paula Young wigs since they were so budget friendly.

    I tried some styles I liked and they are much less dense than some of the more expensive brands.

    Sometimes PY gets stereotyped as "old lady" wigs but they also have some very youthful/fashionable looking styles and nice colors.

    I've also heard of people putting cooling towels or pads under their wigs - not sure I would be comfy doing that but it works for some people!
