When I wear a half wig to swim, it happen...

Moonlight Whisperer

Last week, my bestie and I made an appointment to go to the swimming pool for fitness. Standing in front of the mirror in the locker room, I carefully put on the newly bought half wig and repeatedly confirmed that each clip was firmly fixed. As a swimming enthusiast, my hair always became messy after swimming in the past, which was very troublesome to take care of. This time I decided to try this popular half wig in wear and go wigs series, which is known as the "swimming artifact", to see if it is really as advertised, anti-falling and firm. ​

My bestie changed into a swimsuit and came over to look at it curiously: "Are you really going to wear this into the water? It won't fall off after swimming a few times, right?" I raised my eyebrows and smiled at her: "Wait and see!"

My bestie and I first did warm-up exercises by the pool, moving our shoulders and legs. When I was ready to go into the water, I took a deep breath and slowly slid into the water. As the cool water of the pool flowed over my body, I subconsciously reached out and touched the glueless human hair half wigs on my head. It was still firmly attached to my scalp, and the hair fluttered gently with the waves, without any signs of loosening. ​

We began to swim slowly along the lane, and I adopted the breaststroke posture that I am best at. The waves gently slapped my cheeks, and through the light and shadow of the pool water, I saw my reflection in the water. The half wig fit perfectly, making me look no different from usual. Just as I was enjoying the joy of swimming, I suddenly heard a burst of rapid water splashing behind me. Looking back, it turned out that my best friend was mischievously speeding up and deliberately splashing a large amount of water at me. ​

I was a little embarrassed by this sudden "attack" and instinctively closed my eyes. When I recovered, my first reaction was to check the half wig. Unexpectedly, it was still firmly fixed on my head, and the hair net was close to my scalp without any displacement. I shouted to my best friend who had already swam ahead, "Your little tricks are useless!" She turned around and made a face at me. ​

After swimming to the other side, we took a short break and decided to try freestyle. Freestyle has a larger range of motion, with fast arm strokes and constant body rolls in the water. I thought such intense exercise might pose a challenge to the fixation of the wig, but the half wig seemed to be integrated with my scalp, and it did not move no matter how intense the movement. There was only the whistling sound of the water in my ears. It was the first time I felt so safe while swimming, without worrying about my hair falling off or my image. ​

After getting ashore, my best friend circled around me with a surprised look on her face: "Wow, it really didn't fall off! And it looks so neat, it's amazing!" A lady who was also resting next to me also cast a curious look: "Girl, your wig is so strong in the water, can you recommend it to me?"

This swimming and fitness trip with my best friend made me completely fall in love with the feeling of swimming with a half wig. I don’t have to worry about every time I swim in the hot summer. As long as I put it on, I can enjoy the joy of swimming in the water. This beauty and peace of mind are the surprise gifts that the half wig brings me.
