I know what you mean. It takes some nerve to walk up there but it's worth it in the end. Most places have private rooms where they let you try the wigs on. It is just so nice to really feel what it's like to have long flowing hair down your back. I love to brush it and I have braided it, washed it, and blow dryed it. One time I even set it with curlers. It came out really nice and wavy. I only wich I could wear it more often. I have thought about wearing it in public but didn't have the nerve. It would be interesting to see the reaction of people's face being a guy with waist lentgh hair.
