Dolly Parton has revealed that her iconic wigs serve many purposes in her life. They do not just keep her looking fashionable and fabulous. Her wigs also add a little something special to her performances but what is it? Keep reading for more details.
Dolly Parton Reveals Her Wigs Serve Many Purposes
For decades, Dolly Parton has donned wigs which have become a staple in her ensemble. She loves her makeup and her long acrylic nails. Dolly gets acrylic on both sides of her nails so she does not have to use a pick when she is playing. She is also known for her large bust and tiny waist, never aging and staying eternally youthful. Her marriage has lasted nearly sixty years and she is a success story of epic proportions. From wearing colorful rags as a coat to being a style icon, there is nothing that Dolly cannot do.
She has launched a makeup line which makes sense given her love of beauty. Furthermore, she collaborated with Kendra Scott on a jewelry line which celebrates some of her iconic albums. Finally, she has her own cookbook and baking line because that is part of her heart. There is also Dolly’s incredible philanthropy which fulfils her more than anything else. Yet, performing is at the core of who Dolly is and always has been. From movies, to television to arenas, Dolly can blow the roof off of any house but where does she put her mic pac?
She wears the tiniest little outfits and they fit her itty bitty body so where would someone like Dolly be able to hide or even fit her pack? According to Whiskey Riff, she has a special secret. She hides them in her wigs which she has worn for years. First off, she always loved wigs even though her hair is already dyed blonde. To her, they just make more sense:
I always wore my hair all teased up. Whenever that style started, I was the first to get my hair all poofy. Then as soon as I could buy those hairpieces and wigs, I wanted them. For one thing, they were so handy. Plus, my hair would never do exactly what I wanted it to do. So the wigs became kind of my trademark.
Since they were so big, it helped when mic pack placement became a problem:
I actually have… my wig cap has a little pocket on it in the back. Because my clothes are so tight, my mic pack don’t fit nowhere.
A Genius Idea
Dolly Parton addressed that her performance attire is very snug. It left no room for anything but her own self. Therefore, accommodations had to be made. Fortunately, her wigs were big enough and the wig cap idea was genius:
There’s only room for me in my clothes, and so I have it to where the mic fits in my hair because I wear wigs all the time. And so it goes right over it. We just kind of mic it around, and it works perfect.
It has been noted that with her mic pack secured under her wig, Dolly never has to worry about any issues with it. She won’t find it falling from her pants or dresses. It is safe and sound under her hair and has worked for years so if it is not broken, why fix it?
