I've been growing my hair for a year too, but my hair is very fine, so bought a 3/4 hair piece and a ponytail.  I've not worn them for work yet, but when I was at a fetish event recently I wore my ponytail and had some fun with another girl.  Even though it was securely fastened in, she still managed to pull it off, which made me think that either hair pieces may not be suitable for work, especially (as I've mentioned before) if clients like to run their fingers through my hair.  Shame as I love the different looks they give me.

I have been wering a clip in pony, its on a net and then has grips and a drawstring,  y the time I have tightened it, it would actually hurt for someone to manage to pull it off and I would definately be able to stop them, try the EZ human hair pony tail, but dont use the claw clip that comes with it. put your own hair in a bun and make sure you use the grips and try to push them so that they rest under your bun, then pull the drawstring as far as you can and wrap it round your pony tail (use a small but strong hair bobble for your bun )

I have to wear a wig for work to hide my identity as it would be way too easily recognised in my AW pics as it's short, undercut and I have a love of alternative colours.

I started off buying long human hair wigs on old, eBay and a few other sites.  However I was constantly disappointed by their quality and they never looked anything like the images shown online.
Another problem was the long hair got messy very easily and had to be washed at least once a week sometimes more .... (facials :-()

Anyway By chance I spotted a wig shop (a proper one aimed towards cancer and a alopecia sufferers).
All the wigs supplied by the store to my surprise were synthetic, I opted for a angled bob it was pretty pricy around ?270, but the quality is amazing!

It's a 'Rene au paris' brand, with a mono cap so the parting looks pretty natural.  I rarely wash it as it's a great length for keeping out of the way of jizz, and doesn't end up getting ruffled about from being thrown into different positions.

It's definitely not the sexiest wig, but it's classy and cute and easy to maintain so a winner in my eyes!

When clients do notice I'm wearing a wig I explain that my current hair is short and pink ... thinking that this would be an instant turn off.  But been quite surprised as all of the ones who noticed have said they love unusual hair... and the wigs ended up getting tosssd to the other side of the room

Had alopecia around 10 years ago bad lost an eyebrow and nearly all my eyelashes.

Now due I think to the mirena it is back and I'm on tour and it coming out in handfuls , I take an anti androgen drug every day ( because I have androgenic alopecia and allergic to the male , can't think of name off top of head but hormone we all have ) and my hair took 3 years to grow back .

Just found out mirena is an androgen drug , they fucking knew I'd had it before and promised it wouldn't affect  my hair anyway it's back with a vengeance , I'm working but have been really teary because I've just come back to work but have to blow dry sides and fringe between bookings and it's coming out like mad .

I have bald spots everywhere , can just about cover it ( mirena I took out).

I know there's a wig thread but if I wear one should I mention first ??

I even usually use a magic wand to style it , but have it up mainly for work , now I have one side that's maybe 5 mm long that I can barely tuck behind my ear , mega depressed and fuming with the hospital .

Problem is the more bookings I take the more I have to brush it !

Please feel free to merge if this should be in the wig thread thanks

Oh no i really feel for you and understand you must be really stressed out over it all and especially with doing bookings. I would suggest wearing a wig and i dont feel you need to tell them if its real or fake hair is hair wether stuck on or grown and dont forget many men like long hair and book for that also but a lot have hair extensions. I have known 2 woman in the past that always wore wigs one had your condition and one wanted a different look for work so she steps in that role.

I know it must be so frustrating for you and not getting the help you want and need but least with work you can put on a wig and try and forget about the patches as the client wont see and if he starts getting rough with hair like some do you can say you dont like it being touched much because your nerves on your scalp are very sensitive and you get bad headaches very easy from the hair being played with.

I get bored of my hair but punters love it n like pulling it n playing with it and looking at it. It's one of my good points. However, I've seen these hair pieces that basically just have an elastic thin band you hide in your natural hair and the extension sort of goes underneath. It looks easy n makes you hair look fuller and longer. Has anyone tried these type of extensions? If so has anyone tried a curly style one? Cos it seems to me they are mainly straight or wavy and may not look realistic in curly like the others do.
