Epic Toupees: Straight Gleaming Lilac Over Curly Grey Scruff

LILIC_dome2

You know how the windows of passing cars can blind you with a brilliant flash when the sun hits their windows at just the right angle?  That's how this toupee caught my eye.  When I first spotted him in the distance, I thought he was wearing a tinfoil hat, but as he got closer I could see it was indeed, the most bewitching toupee I had witnessed all day. Not only was it unnaturally shiny and stiff, it was LILAC!  I was instantly reminded of My Little Pony and wondered if his toupee came with a cute matching mini-comb accessory. Like most exquisitely bad toupees, this one fit poorly and was woefully inadequate at matching both the color and texture of his own natural hair.  I wondered why he looked so grumpy - I mean, if you've got the balls to to wear such a ridiculously fantastic shiny plastic candy-colored dome atop your head in public, you may as well own it and slap a big smile on your face. Medium: water color on paper, digital paint.

Maybe he lost the comb.

Damn yeah, Vern, it's like you got inside his head! Poor guy, maybe we should mail him a new one.

Ha Mid! I knew you would have an extra comb to share!!!!!
Maybe we should throw in my Hellno Kitty blow dryer to REALLY cheer him up!

Hello Kitty blow-dryer? YESSS! Ladies and gentlmen, Vern the Master Beautician.

Gosh Red, I'm blushing.
It's not every day my hairball skills are appreciated!
Thank you ever so much.

laughing so hard i nearly choked!
there's one guy i see at the gym always oogling my chest, while I oogle his toupee, which is sort of a combo of the crispy curls and the wonder woman wig. Like who is he kidding?

I wish i had a photo of the guy who wore what looked like a yarmulke of hair to cover his baldspot while he sat on the exercycle. Yeah, it looked REAL NATURAL.

Ooooh I LOVE these! My Little Toupee is definitely my favourite, and Vernilunkidunk is definitely right... he lost the comb. Mind you, he might be pondering a way to show the sparkly tattoo on his ass without getting arrested.
