NEW HAIR
Posted by jerry wigutow on Dec 29th, 2024
HAIR
For the first 78 years of my life, I had straight hair.
In September of 2019 I developed shingles on my forehead with sensitivity on my scalp so I cut off my hair and stayed bald until this summer when I let it grow back, and it came in as you can see wavy. I am not so sure if it is any thicker, but it is thick.
The shingles are almost completely gone so I have no sensitivity when I comb it.
I wonder if this has happened to anyone else.
The picture I took, my first selfie Saturday morning on my 83 rd birthday.
Now I really enjoy combing my hair.
Business has been superb. If you have placed an order, remember we have been closed since Wednesday the 24 th and reopen Monday the 30th, we have received over 100 orders so far, so we still have Sunday to receive more.
We will work as diligently as possible to get them shipped.
The year is ending strong, and the new year is looking to start out strong. Most of the sales are for sleeping bags.
Thank you all for supporting Wiggy’s
HAPPY NEW YEAR IT IS FOR ME I HAVE WAVY HAIR
