The World’s First Wigs

Historians believe that the earliest wigs created date back to the early Egyptians. Wigs have come a long way over 4000 years. Originally used to basically show how important someone was- their prestige- wigs also served a practical use.

Wigs were made out of human hair and animal hair. These hairpieces protected the head from the sun and prevented disease by keeping the head protected from bugs. Their purposes continued on and eventually turned into the iconic “powdered wig” that you may be familiar with former presidents wearing.

17th Century Wigs

During the 17th century, wigs were worn to distinguish one’s class. Even the color of the wig represented a person’s status and position within their class. White wigs were reserved for the most elite of the time where brown wigs were worn by a working tradesman. Men who wore long, lavish wigs were considered very attractive, and they were able to display their important societal status.

The history of wigs and hairpieces is rich and fascinating. Now, fast forward a few hundred years and you’ll find yourself in the Tulsa area of Oklahoma at Judi’s Wigs.
