WATER COOLER TALK: Countess Vaughn Gets Sick From Lacefront Wigs Plus Others Get Cancer! Is It Time to Give Them Up?

Actress Countess Vaughn, who is known for acting on “The Parkers” and “Moesha,” recently revealed that she contracted a debilitating scalp infection from wearing lace front wigs non-stop for the last five years.

What happened to her scalp?  “Vaughn, who has been out of the public eye for a while now, admits that her five-year-long love affair with lace front wigs, which required her to use a glue adhesive, caused a severe scalp infection that resulted in hair loss, pus-filled blisters, scarring, discoloration, and even a facial infection.”

But she was forewarned.  Six months before, she suspected that she had an infection but ignored the symptoms because she couldn’t see herself not wearing a wig.

Unfortunately, lace front wigs have been linked to forehead cancer in Black women.  Do you think it is time for sisters to give it up?
