The rise of the Tea Party as a new political power in the U.S. has brought about renewed interest in powdered wigs. Our founding fathers wore powdered wigs and now many people are buying them to participate in halloween parties and re-enactments. I think the founders of our country would be proud.

Powdered wigs were popular very popular in the 1700's. The name came about because they use to apply powder to human hair wigs to achieve the look they wanted. Men and women wore powder wigs. It seems as if we mostly see men pictured in portraits. By the 1800's, the popularity of the wigs had died down. Today you can still find the wigs being worn in the United Kingdom for Parliament. Who would have thought there would ever be a resurgence of powdered wigs in the United States?

Powdered Wigs Are Great For Halloween

It will soon be the party season with Halloween getting near and then Thanksgiving and Christmas. I'm sure you will have many opportunities to play dress up this year. Why don't you go as a high society aristocrat? Most of us look better in curls anyway. George Washington would be proud.

Powdered wig costumes are cheap and they are certainly not ordinary. I go to a lot of holiday parties and it's always the same old dull costumes. I don't ever recall seeing a powder wig costume at any party I have ever been to. I can imagine that I will be seeing some this party season.

Amazon has some great looking wigs to choose from. I have compiled my favorite ones for you below. They have more, just click to read reviews or more selections. If you go to a party this season as a founding father, let me know.
