Joan Collins’ wigs are the personification of ratty Korean wigs.

Cindy Brady

Mike Connors, the final season of [italic]Mannix.[/italic]

A bad, bad, very bad wig.

One of the very last episodes of Frasier (Crock Tales) was a “fake flashbacks” episode in which Frasier recalls pivotal moments in the apartment from the last ten years. The wigs on Daphne and Roz appear to have been deliberately bad, as with each flashback they look worse and worse. This is one of the flashbacks.

I always wear pussy wigs during the winter for warmth.

Joyce DeWigg

This was egregious.

Pretty much any sheitel I've ever seen in person is instantly recognizably fake.

Peter Lawford in Bewitched. Icky teeth as well.

Serena’s wig, however: ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Harry Guardino made several appearances on Murder, She Wrote. He sported a different terrible wig for each separate character.

Mickey Rourke's roadkill look

Colin Farrell's wig in Alexander

Tammy Faye offers an assortment of choices.

Gene Kelly in his later years

Chuck Heston in his later years

The Decades binge last weekend was Burke's Law and Gloria Grahame was on one episode with a horrible wig. I can't find a pic, but it was just sad.

Robert Redford

Totally unrealistic for a man his age.

Beyond sad, r23.

Charlton Heston wore multiple wigs simultaneously!

[quote]Pretty much any sheitel I've ever seen in person is instantly recognizably fake.

I've always assumed it was on purpose because if it were too realistic looking it would defeat the purpose on covering one's head in the first place.

Dustin Hoffman said that Heston wore a bald cap over his toupee in order to play bald.

Ms. Kidman, you’ve been summoned!

Bob Redford should have spent less on wigs and more on dental care. As in whitening.

R27, I believe it

r26 Ok, that makes a lot more sense to me. I always wondered why they worse such crappy, poor-quality wigs.

I’d rather wear a headscarf over a fucking wig.

Bow down, bitches, to THE fake-ass wig of all time!! BOW BEFORE YOUR QUEEN!!!!!

No love for the Brillo pad I sported during Falcon Crest, bitches?

Sophia Loren

Nicole in The Undoing.

Nothing to see here...this one is all real.

Hi, I'm Rand Paul!

Throw this wig overboard

Warn a person, r37, that pic gave me vertigo.

The entire cast of 80 for Brady.

Oh, Rob...

This has some bad ones

Hi!!!

Every head in this movie.

Julianna Margulies in every episode of The Good Wife.

Marilyn Monroe in The Misfits. Barbara Stanwyck in Double Indemnity.

Bette Davis sometimes wore bad wigs, more often wore her own hair, but the wigs weren't good.

May we throw in ridiculous dye jobs?

Joan Crawford in Torch Song

r48, that movie was hilarious, his hair always looked freshly dyed, even when he was supposed to be in a prison camp.

Claire Danes in The Essex Serpent

That looks like mohair, r51.

[quote]Dustin Hoffman said that Heston wore a bald cap over his toupee in order to play bald.

I looked up photos of Heston in A Man for All Seasons and it looks as if he insisted on wearing a hairpiece even though the character was supposed to be bald.

Heston turned into a giant rectangle with a square for a head as he got older.

r51, yep. I didn't watch the show but I saw some stills and couldn't get over how bad her hair looked. The hair and makeup department must have loathed her.

I loved this movie but Adam Beach’s hair at the end is just beyond.

Cynthia Gibb and Mitchell Anderson in the Karen Carpenter TV movie.

We had to watch that movie in health class when I was in middle school, R56. I was too busy laughing at the bad acting I managed to overlook those ridiculous wigs!

There are some pretty spectacularly awful wigs in the ridiculous reenactment sections of "The Freddie Mercury Story: Who Wants to Live Forever?"

...sigh

Howard 'Wiggy' Stern

One more

Step back ladies

True Detective

I find this creature rather disconcerting.

This helmet

^ He looks like Francis X Bushman.

Tammy Faye and Sister Jan wore wigs the way some women used to wear statement hats.

Is it shit plugs, a wig, or a combo of both?

I'd like to set fire to it with him inside of it.

Crispin Glover in River's Edge.

Were either of them wearing wigs in To Die For? Hard to tell.

Also - Hannah Baker's wig in 13 Reason's Why, Alex Standall's wig in the same show (Katherine Langford, Miles Heizer).

(Nicole Kidman, Joaquin Phoenix, TDF.)

Jane Fonda in California Suite.

R48 This thread is for bad wigs however bad dye jobs deserves its own thread.

R49 is that Jenny Stewart?

R67 I agree. Jan Crouch’s hair always made me crave cotton candy.

Eydie Gormé on What's My Line. Even the host of the show commented upon it.

Gwen Shamblin Lara

Jan Crouch wore 2 wigs at the same time. One on top of the other.

Bless her grifter, dead heart.

She was focused, I'll hand her that.

Paul Crouch, too

Jamie Lee Curtis in Halloween II

The late Diamond, and her sister, Silk. Hideous, in more ways than one.

R65- Why the long face?

Fake or real? I still can't decide...

Every single black female litigant on "Judge Judy" and "Judy Justice' over the past 27 years. I swear there's a janky wig shop next door to the studio where these women by a wig to wear on the show. They're hideous.

R76 I'm probably not going to watch the whole episode, could you summarize what the host said, please?

[Quote][R76] I'm probably not going to watch the whole episode, could you summarize what the host said, please?

R85 Host John Daly didn't say anything mean about her wig, but explained (at 24:27) that she was able to arrive at the studio shortly after her husband, Steve Lawrence, left the house, because she was able to "get that pretty head of hair so quick and so fast."

(Steve Lawrence was a guest panelist, and his wife was the mystery guest they all had to guess while blindfolded. He didn't expect it to be her, since he had left her while she was washing the dishes, with her real hair all down.)

Jennifer Grey said she wouldn’t play Gwen Shamlin for Lifetime- unless there was some goddamn $$$ in the wig budget!

Taylor Swift as her brunette, bitchy alter ego in this music video. It's too shiny and distracting. At least, it features cutiepie MacGyver.

Tom Hanks in Larry Crowne. It’s an awful color and it makes him look slow.

Toward the end of her life, Jacqueline Susann turned bad wigs into a complete style.

No Janeane Garofalo stories?

Raquel Welch in her later years

Barbra in For Pete's Sake.

Jane Fonda in Coming Home.

British Conservative Member of Parliament, Michael Fabricant

Sherrie Shepherd

Wonderfully fake. Cameo by Kathleen Turner
