Determine how you will include the wigs. You must begin thinking about how you are going to incorporate the wigs into your party or activity early in the event planning stage. Ask yourself the following questions:
Will I provide the wigs or will I ask guests to bring their own?
Will I offer any prizes or awards for the best wig worn at the wig party?
Let people know wigs are a must. Make it extremely clear in your invitations that wigs are mandatory at your wig party. Nothing kills the vibe at a wig party like anything less than 100% wig wearing participation.
Organize your party or event just like you would any other normal event. The beauty of the wig party is that it is so simple but it adds a lot of fun and it tends to take a normal party to another level of fun.
Stir up some excitement. A few days before the wig party, email or share some good photos of either yourself the host in a great wig or some other good photo of people in wigs to get the excitement brewing.
Throw the wig party. Be sure to answer the door as the host wearing your wig and keep your wig on at all times during the event. A host's commitment to the wig theme is crucial in building and sustaining the level of fun that is possible during a wig party.
Required Tools:
Wigs
Caution:
If you are going to be serving alcohol, ensure that everyone has a safe ride home. The addition of wigs to a party tends to increase the amount of drinking that occurs as compared to a normal party. Be sure to stock your bar for your wig party accordingly.
Quick Tips:
It is always good to buy a couple extra wigs for those guests who inevitably will forget to bring one. I recommend having an extra afro, clown and mullet wig on hand just in case.
