The day I became Nicole Wig-man! Tired of her midlife limp locks, LIZ JONES channelled Hollywood’s queen of character acting and tried the latest trend for hairpieces

Outtakes:

I speak to Gary Price, the wig director at the Daniel Galvin salon in Selfridges. A trained counsellor, he specialises in medical hair loss, and fits and styles both ready-to-wear and bespoke wigs. He is seeing an increase in young women who simply want to ring the changes, to whom he issues a few words of warning.

‘Most cheaper fashion wigs, known as wefted wigs, are machine made: they have a thick fabric base and just too much hair. My wigs are hand-knotted on to a lightweight transparent base, which means your own skin tone shows through. They all have very fine, lace fronts that require no glue, to create the most realistic hairline.’
