Wigs and false hair pieces are no longer considered a luxury
Wigs and false hair pieces are no longer considered a luxury. Most women can own one - but few would spend £ 1, 500 on a complete " wig wardrobe." This is exactly what one customer at Owen Owen Ltd. hairdressing salon has done. " My client has bought wigs and pieces of all colours, shapes and lengths, " said Mr Kenneth Lugg, manager of the salon. This photograph shows a customer at the Owen Owen wig boutique surrounded by samples of the wig-makers craft.
At the Hotel Leofric in Coventry, this week more than 100 Coventry & District hairdressers attended a " wig forum, " when two representatives from a wig firm gave hints on how to care for wigs, their cleaning, cutting, perming and setting. Wigs and hairpieces of all sizes and colours were on display including a special range of toupees for men. These toupees were priced from about £ 14 14s.

It is clear that she has embraced the freedom to transform her look effortlessly with these fashionable accessories. Meanwhile, at the Hotel Leofric in Coventry, over 100 hairdressers from Coventry & District gathered for a "wig forum".
