If you’re a flapper, the hair is essential, unless you can get your natural hair styled that way. Dressing as Marilyn Monroe? A wig is likely necessary. How about the golden locks of, well, Goldilocks? How about the unkempt dreadlocks of a pirate? Just about any costume you can imagine will lend itself to a good wig.
