Is this real or have the Brits been taken in by a SNL fake commercial?

When my daughter was a baby we put the Rastafarian wig on her and took photo's for our own amusement and her later embarrassment.....hee hee.

Ivan,
Tell your friends this is not a US craze. As Hoodlum91 says you're being had.

I'm still laughing at the wigs worn by British and many Northern European adult men during the 17th and 18th century. What was with that?

I wonder if the Californian company bribed a Mail reporter to advertise their product. I have never seen a "Baby Wig" in Britain.
To: Pokey78
"The wigs are manufactured by California-based firm BabyToupee and cost £14."
Oh, I get it. BabyToupee is hoping that the Brits will buy these, erroneously thinking that it's a craze here in the US. Ya gotta hand it to those Californians. They really are the most accomplished scam artists.

Does the Daily Mail run prank articles?

What was with that?Probably a stylish way of keeping their heads warm. Half the people who signed the Declaration of Independence wore wigs or little fur hats. There was no central heating remember!
To: Pokey78
Just wait till these hit Britain.
