Teaching Tuesday 火曜日授業の日

Each time I wrap into a turban style, it comes out slightly different, even when I try to do an identical style.  Well, enjoy that!  Today, I looked myself in a mirror and felt like I was in Aladdin, or in a story One Thousand and One Nights.

wrap up for freezing temperature 極寒対策にマキマキ ターバン

It has been very very cold in New York area, days of single digit temperature with strong wind.  Putting a wig itself is not a comfortable thing, but adding an extra knit cap to bundle me up makes wig tighten up with extra pressure.  When I take off the cap also makes wig look messy, too.

Wrapping Style in Winter 冬のターバンスタイル

Wrapping Style in Winter 冬のターバンスタイル

I did not realize how hair keeps my head so warm.  After all those years with long hair I had, I feel cold in head this winter with newly growing very short hair.  This wrapping style became my favorite for this season.  It is warm, gives fullness and playful asymmetry design.  I also like this pin (find it, it is at my forehead) I put in the front on the wrap, too.  A part of it hangs down from the turban and it sways.  It adds a little charm to the style.  Because of the volume, my style does not speak out that I face hairless with cancer.
