I'm the "lovely lady" who found you the salon where they are vaxed, but you need to do what makes you comfortable.
If you feel that the stylist may be less cautious outside, that's a real worry, and I think you are even more anxious because of Florida’s complete lack of masking mandates. I know I worry for my parents every day down there. They are nearly 90, not in great shape, and a lot of their friends in their gated community have died from Covid. We went down there three times since June but they won’t let us come now.
I know you feel so much better when your hair is done, but if it gives you anxiety then I would wait a bit more. However, I’ve never worn a wig but I’ve heard they are hot and itchy. Are you comfortable wearing more of a baseball cap thing instead when you need to go to the store? That’s what I think I would choose if I were in a hot climate and needed to cover my hair.
IMO
@ilovewings, remember that as self-conscious as you are feeling about the state of your hair, most people don’t even notice. Even though you feel conspicuous, probably everyone is just wrapped up in their own stuff. You have a lovely husband who doesn’t care about your hair but just cares about your sense of safety and security. That’s a blessing.
