Is This "Ho Wig" Offensive?
The long march to Halloween has begun, because dubious costume wigs are popping up on a ton of shopping sites. While looking in Drugstore.com's Halloween section, I was taken aback by this BuySeasons Ho Wig ($20). I don't like the term in general, I had no idea that fluffy black hair and red lipstick were such a crime, and I really never imagined that a marketer could look at a piece of fake hair and think "Hey, that's a wig for somebody who wants to broadcast to everyone that they're a marginalized, dehumanized figure for Halloween.

Do You Own a Wig?
Check out these saucy photos of Angelina Jolie for the July issue of Vanity Fair.

Since Britney shaved her head, she's been having fun touring LA while wearing different color wigs. Too bad for her sake it hasn't tricked the paparazzi and given her more privacy. Most recently we've seen her with long straight blonde locks, a change from her usual medium length wavy brunette mane.

What Do You Think Will Be the Most Popular Costume This Halloween?
After seeing Heidi and Spencer's Halloween shenanigans, I'm thinking that, yes, we will be seeing lots of Jon-and-Kate pairs this Halloween, particularly because that asymmetric blond wig is selling like crazy. Also from popular culture, I'd venture to say that there will be many sparkly Edwards and Bellas (get her exact makeup look here), Mad Men tributes, and even a few zombies, thanks to the success of Zombieland.

With Halloween just a couple of weeks away, I'm finding all sorts of wacky costume wigs, weaves and extensions. Some are so bizarre that I can't help but wonder how they get manufactured. This wig, for instance, looks like the kind of wig that would never be sold, but it's a real wig.
