I've never been able to spot when a man is wearing a wig. Not even when it has been as obvious as Walter Koenig in his later roles, or even Frankie Howerd in Up Pompeii. It is just a blind spot I have. I don't even know if Ernie Wise supposedly wearing a toup is just a joke or not. How do you all spot them?

[(Anonymous)]

I'm just bad at spotting wigs, period. Unless it's like a clown wig or something.

[(Anonymous)]

I have a lot of hair so I just assume that people's hair is real and not extensions or a piece or whatever as long as it looks generally realistic.

I think that's what we're supposed to do!

Modern, professional toupees are very hard to spot. Find the toupee lady youtube and be amazed.

People always say it is super obvious bit I never notice.

[(Anonymous)]

Same.

well, the pieces in those pics are really well done, so don't feel bad about not being able to clock them quickly.

my speed is due to 25 years of the evolution of cosplay wigs - I know what the fibers look like, even the nicest modern filaments as well as actual human hair wigs. I know how the lights on a set affect the sheen, and I also know all the makeup crew's tricks to try to make wigs look less wiggy. So, I don't dismiss folks who don't have all that background knowledge to always catch the wig. You're lucky, because the makeup tricks are being done so well (as they should be!) that you don't notice. I mean, if the only reason you know it's a wig is because you see the actor without it while doing the promo tour...good job hair&makeup!

the only time I think "???" when someone says they didn't realize it was a wig is when it's so fucking cartoon-level obvious, like you can see the actor's hairline under the edge, or the bad makeup blending along the lace/hairline, or the texture is wildly different from a scene in the same episode/movie before/after because they had to quickly slap on a wig for pickup shots. the wig is usually a close-enough style but not styled exactly like the actor's hair was the first time, and if you cut quickly enough between shots you'll see it instantly. It's knowledge you can't take back once you see it.

I think Ernie Wise didn't have a wig - it was just a running joke?

[(Anonymous)]

same; I will never be able to spot a wig unless there's a scene where they're actually putting it on
