Funniest/most embarassing wig stories

[Kiynwah]

Hey ladies!

In good humor, what are some of your funniest/most embarrassing wig stories about you or a friend.

One time a friend of mine had gone to bed with a bright yellow bandana on.... when she put her wig on the next day, she forgot to change it for the stocking cap. She went out grocery shopping, looking for clothes and running errands all day and people kept looking at her but she didn't know why. When I finally met up with her, I saw she had bright yellow "scalp" parts sticking out from the wig tracks. POOR THING!!!!! Needless to say she was absolutely devastated... but years later we both get a good laugh out of it.

Ah man, I really tried to erase this event from my memory. Ok was wearing a half wig with all of my hair braided underneath (important part) I've never had a problem with my wig ever almost coming off even on vacation and in pools. Ok, so i go to the beach in new jersey which is anyones goes to the shore know that the water is VERY choppy. So I'm in the water;chillin. I turn to yell out at my friend on the beach asking her to come in the water; She looked at me with her eyes wide opened pointing behind me. I turn around and get hit with the biggest wave EVER. No, Seriously, i was under for a minute. Everybody was askin me was I ok, which i thought I was besides almost dying ...Anyway, i feel my head and all I feel are braids and raggedy ones at that cause i didn't care when i braided them. My wig and headband were takin in by that F'n wave and i was mortified. My friends were crying!!!!(laughing) and so was I (not laughing) That had to be the worst day of my life.

Now, when i go on vacation, I either where my real hair or sew on the half-wig(laec wig) or get a weave.

lol>!! That story is the bomb! It really made me ROF laughing!!! Oh gosh! those embarrassing moments are always so hard to forget!!!Did you have to go home without the unit? Or could you rescue it from the waves? I don't know how you did it girl!!! Gosh, you are brave for surviving that one!!!!

Here's another one:

One time I was sleeping in my dorm room and my roommate had woken up early to study. I had put on a satin scarf and gone to bed the night before but hadn't taken off the wig. when I woke up groggy-eyed hours later, I touched my head and felt my braids... and my hair was sitting at least a foot up on my pillow taking a nice nap of its own. how EMBARRASSING. My Asian roommate was sitting at the desk across from me watching it all. OH LAWDY!!! What do you say in a moment like that?

All of those stories were funny! I can certainly imagine how you guys felt.

My story:
Many years ago I had just gotten a relaxer which turned out to be bone straight. I had the stylist only curl the front because I was going to put on my half wig.

After leaving the salon I went to the mall to a bss and then decided to just look around the mall. While walking I felt something weird going on with my hair. I felt the top of my head and didn't feel my half wig...what in sam hill?

My wig had slid down to the back portion of my head even though the wig had combs in it. My hair was so straight the combs didn't hold. I was in panic mode because at this point I had to hold my wig in place! I ducked into the nearest clothing store, grabbed a blouse and went straight into the dressing room to fix my half wig.

Had I taken a few more steps my half wig would have fallen off behind me right there in the mall.

[Truth]

yeah let me come on in... I too was wearing an half wig..(braided in the front wig in the back) and my hair was doing god knows what under there.. I think I layed it low and pined it under... Anywho, we were in the club.. and the song "Dutty Wine" comes on .. and if you don't know that dance, Let me just say It requires extreme head/hair movement....Now, I usually have my "hair" pinned in to the T..Apparently this night I didn't.. Well, Me and my friend were doin the dance and low and behold.. I swung my hair and that joint flew off my head...Now the MC saw this and said "She Dutty whinning so hard her weave came off "... my home girl caught it before it was trampled under feet and I had to reassemble myself... YEAH... needless to say that was the last time I ever did that...

OMG those stories are too funny especially the dutty wine one LMAO.

I was at TGIF to cheer my uncle up that had been depressed because he was out of work. We are having a good time sitting in the bar area. I always like to sit in the bar to check out the mens. For some reason my wig felt funny. So I decided to walk to the restroom and investigate. I was wearing a half wig at the time. I noticed one of the waiters was staring at me in amazement. I touched up top and realized the wig was slipping off. It felt straight to the floor. I picked the wig up and held my head high while I was stepping to tbe bathroom. I didn't know what to do since my brother and nephew work at the restroom. The wig fell down in the server area. Finally I put the wig securly on place and went back to the table and hurried the heck out of there.

My grandma and I were at an amusement park and went on one of those rides that look like an octopus, with a seat-for-two placed at the end of each long arm. The arms wave back and forth and up and down past each other and the seat spins.

On one particular violent swing of the arm, Grandma's wig came right off her head and fell down to the observers crowded at the base of the machine.

My quick-thinking 8-year old self sought a distraction and I began waving at the machine operator, who came over. "I'm sick, I'm going to be sick! Turn off the ride or I'll throw up all over the seat!"

The operator hurried over to the control panel to stop the ride and I was able to shimmy out of my seat and spirit Grandma over to the place where her wig was. She slapped it on her head and we high-tailed it out of there before the other passengers could notice that we cut their ride short because of a fallen wig!

My uncle (grandma's on) turned out to have been too quick for us: he had captured the falling wig episode--and our appalled faces--on video camera and photograph! Embarassing memories preserved as well as fond ones.

 

[Kiynwah]

OMGG!! These stories are just soooo hilarious They have me dying here!

I can't believe the roller coaster one - I would have absolutely been mortified!!! Lucky your grandma had you there for support!

i can totally related to the dutty wine situation. Whenever that song comes on, I hightail it, or just do a mild version. Props to you for going full force!!!!!

And the mall and server area- ladies!!!!! I've almost been in that situation. You know it's time to hold and run to the bathroom when:

a) you feel something funny is happening on top or
b) EVERYONE is staring at you!

LOLOLOLOLOL . you all are wonderful!

Ya'll remember the member who posted about her wig coming off at the car wash?? I have to find that and read it again that was one of the funniest things I've ever read.

yes girl i remember that...classic!

 

[Natural Glow]

yes girl i remember that...classic!

I had to go find the post and read it again

Picture this....

I went out for a few minutes this evening since the weather is nice here in D.C. I decided before I went home to vaccum my car. Soooooo....I pulled up and there was on guy to my right in his 7 Series BMW (he was FINE!!!) and one guy to my left in his Mercedes... As I got out of my car, the guy in the BMW spoke... (he was HOTTT). I was at the car wash on Branch Avenue (for you ladies in the DMV area), where all the fine brothers go to wash their cars.

Long story very short, I started vaccuming my car. I finished the back passenger side and decided to do the front passenger side. So, I threw the nozzle up to the front and the nozzle got a little stuck by the arm rest. So when I went to the front to pull it from the back...you will never believe what happened!!! ~~drum roll~~

I guess I snatched the nozzle too hard, because when I did....I hit myself in the forehead with the nozzle and OFF CAME MY WIG!!!!!!!! That dayum nozzle snatched it RIGHT OFF MY HEAD.....chile..I was soooo lookin!!! I was in my car fightin with the nozzle trying to get my wig back and the more I fought for it, the more it got sucked it in....so now, I'm bent ova in my car fighting with the nozzle and half my wig is in it, meanwhile I got this stockin cap on my head (not a wig cap) and had da nerve to use a pair of old stockins with the legs tied in a knot!!!!!! ( It neva dawned on me this would happen).

So then dude in the BMW comes over and says.."hey, are you alright"....by this time the machine cuts off, I'm sweatin, all outta breath...now it seems like every cute guy in the D.C. area wants to pull up.....so I had to come out of my car lookin retarded...and I couldn't say nuffin....I just wanted to get in my car and drive off into the sunset I was speechless...I just said "uh huh"..... At this point, I wanted to crawl UNDER MY CAR and hide !!!!!

Now, since the machine is off, I pulled my wig out, but along with it came a book of matches, lint, etc. So I just threw the dayum thing in the trash. I could tell he was holding in his laugh, so I just da hell with it and snatched the stockin cap off too. I didn't even finish cleaning the inside of my car.....I couldn't. I just drove home looking like an idiot >>>

Then I walk in the house, already pissed and my son asks me..."dang ma, u went out lookin like that....what happened to you" You know I just looked at him, rolled my eyes and kept it movin..... I can neva show my face there AGAIN!!!!!!

 

[Kiynwah]

omg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE MATCHES AND LINt had me laughing so hard. I was crying. Oh gosh!!!!

 

[katote]

DH and I along with our kids decided to visit a new church. We sat down in church, and my dd decided to tell me a secret and pulled my head so hard my UPA clip fell off in front of everyone and landed in my lap. I was horrified!!!!

I couldn't even tell you what the sermon was about, because I kept laughing to myself. I turned around to find all eyes on me. This one dude looked like what the **ll?

 

[Urban]

hahahahahahah These stories had me cryin'!!

 

[GreenD]

Oh gosh my stomach is hurting and I'm crying laughing at you ladies. I just really hope to God I won't have a story to add....Keep them coming please!!

 

[Mizz Diamonds]

this why i can't get a wig coz of the fear i'm already so clumsy and worry so much abony my phony pony coming off on a windy day.

 

[BellaLunie]

Phew! Y'all ladies got some stories okay here's mine a few of my friends decided to go out to Applebees and celebrate a close friend passing the state board for her massage license. Before our food got there my bf asked me to go to the washroom with her and I obliged. Seems that they just mopped the floor and hadn't put up the "wet floor sign" needless to say I tripped and busted my arse. Mel tried to brace my fall but instead of grabbing my shirt she ended up grabbing the end of my wig and it flew right up, so here I am on the floor and she's holding my wig in shock all the people in the boothes were cracking up laughing . I COULD HAVE DIED! Out of nowhere the teenage kid pops up with the sign. The manager must have heard the commotion and came over and offered to comp our meal. I declined and high tailed it out of there. The "friends" I were with graciously took him up on his offer

At a dinner of a major organization, about to give a speech...I was eating desert so hard that I didn't notice my bangs slipping back with each bite. Now I wasn't eating like a pig, but...some of y'all know how to do when you're hungry and at a public gathering. Multiple trips at different sections at different times so it looks like you're going for the first time or for different things, say, veggies this time, or fruit the next. Also the napkin trick (got four finger sandwiches that way, plus two on my plate). Yes ladies, I was Hongray that night.

Lawdy I sholl was.

I felt the a/c kick on and felt the breeze on my forhead. Now I have *snap*of forhead, y'all, like my hair looks like it's growing in my face (well, when I had a healthy hairline), so for me to feel that breeze, my Janet Collection Clair wig was slipin' way back.

I got up and looked at the situation. It wasn't so bad; nothing was showing, but my bangs went from the top of my nose to my brow bone, y'all!!!

Lessons learned:
1). pin my wigs in place

2). eat before I go somewhere.

that is all.

 

[SCarolinaGirl]

I guess I will share my wig story too....


I was at a sonic drive-in with my mom and sister and my sister says, "don't move there's a cricket in your hair". I am terrified of all things that crawl, fly, etc. So I jump out of the car, pull the wig off and start shaking it to get the cricket off. Everyone around me was staring and I felt so stupid. It was a dang on cricket... Plus this was before my LHCF days so I didn't even have on a stocking cap under my wig. So you can only imagine what I looked like. I'm still traumatized by that day, lol.

 

[LifeafterLHCF]

This was a Sunday morining I decied to wear a wig instead of my twist bun. Church was getting ready to end , and I stared to dig in my big purse for my car keys, I am searching because I have a lot of junk in my purse. I finally found my keys at the bottom , I pull them out along with my wig bun I had on day before , it fell to the floor in the church, and friend started to laugh at me. I hurry up and pick up my bun and pretend to look at the pastor as well to see if any one was staring at me. After church she kept laughting and finally I started to laught.

oh no!!!!! LOL.

Sorry to hear about your fall.You could have sued them for negligence. Anytime you slip in a store or grocery or restaurant because of water spill and no sign, the restaurant can loose a lot of money in a lawsuit. It was definitely their mistake! That's probably why they were so eager to comp the meal. Sorry girl! Hope it didn't hurt!1

I have one:

This was when I was pregnant with my daughter. My hair was still growing out from BC and I wasn't comfortable wearing my hair out some days.
This day I had class, but was so tired and ended up waking up late. So since I'm still groggy and tired, I forgot I went to sleep with my scarf on and just put my wig on on top of it without knowing. I was so scatterbrained when i was pregnant it was ridiculous. (I would drive straight through red lights without knowing and blow my horn at other people for taking the light )
Anyway, so while in class, this lady that sits next to me who also wears wigs was like: you have something sticking out the back, I was like huh? I didn't even want to be bothered. So she discreetly pulls at the scarf poking out by my neck. I run in the bathroom, and see a bright blue scarf that you can see from the front, sides and the long tail out the back. I didn't know who saw, but I was tired and hungry and just wanted to leave...lol
