wig, n[wig]. Abbr. fr periwig. 1. A covering for the head, intended to imitate naturally growing hair, commonly made of nylon or inflammable oragne plastic. 2. A risble head-dress worn by slapsters for the amusement of passers-by. 3.~gy, adj. [wigi] Descriptive of one who appears to have a dead cat on his head.
From the dawn of time, man's greatest enemy has been the unstappable progress of male-pattern baldness. But ever since the first Neanderthal killed a ginger mammoth and put a roughly sheared lump of his pelt on top of his head, the human race has been fighting back.
10,000 years later, and with new space-age technologies and materials at his disposal, modern man's wig is a far cry from that early crude attempt.
Believe it or not, all the men pictured in this book are thought to be wearing wigs.
