WIGS and masks



I am thinking this moment that often people have to use various or different strategies of life in their processes of living. Some strategies are inevitable that people have to follow or have to use. So to get a right picture one has to unmasks or remove the wig and show the ‘look as it is’ until then identifying universality, uniquenesses of our own lives  is no easy. 

I remember reading or watching  a particular photo shoot of our melody of silver screen Sangeetha Weeraratne taken at their very own studio – Thimothy Studio I can’t memorize the exact dates or year I read them. She has used various wigs very fashionable ones of course and they were very well matched with her features, body shape etc. That is because she is a celebrity and was in the fashion arenas those days than now days.  and I have seen some other celebrities here and there have used fashionable wigs on and off screen , here and there of celebrity world , occasions, events.

So these Wigs any fashionable figure of any industry ( mostly star arenas) has to choose them ‘intelligently otherwise their whole look of the faces and figures may show not any difference for good but some no matching looks. That is bad for them especially when they have to maintain their body shapes and figures of talents in a very careful manner. 



You know the fans are very much concern about how they not only look but also how they live.  The fans here or there are like that, they sometimes bothers you in some other times give you a very positive feed backs to promote or demote your carrier specialties.

But the masks are different the celebrities can’t use any masks in their real eventful occasions,  dinners or at anytime parties unless it is a dancing occasion that the partners cover their eyes mainly with a very fashionable or creative masks that is the style of such dancing items. I do not know whether in such dancing movements whether the other dancing partner does not know ‘with whom they are dancing with’ just because they are wearing eye masks and dance. I doubt I am sure they anytime can identify their ones though they use such masking when partner – dancing.  They can read eyes I am sure.

I remember sometime back, our Honda daruwa ‘Deepthi ( Ms Nilmini Thennakoon) of Du Daruwo  ( daughters and sons ?)  directed by veteran small screen personality Mr. Nalan Mendis. So this Honda daruwa Deepthi used to style her hair in a very stylish way the style chosen was very well matched with her looks. And we were very curious about her hair and style and were wondering what had happen to her hair or how she tied her hair that way. Anyways after sometimes she explained how she tied or styled her hair that way through a newspaper interview given to a paper. The cut was known as ‘Bob Cut’ Deepthi‘s cut’: -)

Wigs and masks are like that

I know some use wigs to cover ‘hair loses’ some really have to because of the health conditions that some suffer from, illnesses like ‘Cancer’ and because of the treatments that they get, hair loses I have seen some uses. It is not compulsory or one really have to use it but you know even knowing that they don’t live longer they ( such patients) like to live even one more day in this world and they like to see themselves in  a at least some pleasant way.

The detectives have to use them for various reasons; some thieves I am sure use them to cover their real faces until they finish their stealing thinking that others can’t recognize their faces. Every stealer keeps at least single evidence unknowingly of course that very same evidence would help any detective to catch any stealer, them that is how this world is formed though it is most the times very strange and difficult to understand.

Some use them to cheat others or for good of the others. Every action of every human being of this world depends on their inner ‘wills’ and aims of their lives. They use their strategies of living accordingly. Threatening who ever using masks is a very ugly way of dealing things. Scaring little ones are very and very ugly thing to do in any of the dealings of carrier or otherwise. This world is cruel sometimes that too we have to admit again it is little difficult to understand the entire facets of this world we live.  So such masking or wiggings of dealings of life one has to expect or should not be surprised even experienced.  Life worth more than any other vital or otherwise information, documents no need to explain.  We are not all the time intelligent or clever (sthanochitha prannawa) but that is what one has to maintain throughout their lives, dealings.

One need to use what is truly applicable to what so ever moment fearful or eventful or joyful.

Some I am sure use masks to mislead people, groups, and individuals. Never last long such things.  That is not very original ways of dealing things, find solutions face to face dealings are always fruitful and useful that is my personal thinking.

Both wigs and masks ‘creating’ is an art. One needs to have enough of talents to create such things.
One can use them, the masks in a way to express something in a meaningful way – Yak Handa (Mr. Malinda Seneviratne’ s column) for an example.   



bali thowil ( traditional methods of healing used in now and then society of ours, that some say is not scientific) is good for some diseases. Bali thowil is one of the informationful sociological and anthropological 'research topic as well.  many researchers have done many research under this topic one can explore if necessary or interested to know, via the nets. 

Both wigs and masks helps people for their livelihoods. Some make a living making or creating masks and wigs it is like knifes and mammoties when one uses any of the existing tools for ‘good only’ there is no harm manufacturing them it is foolish to say ‘stop manufacturing wigs and masks because people use them for ill will purposes.

Nothing of this world that exists so far here or anywhere of the world I do not think easy to eliminate when you find the ones who always support such actions or procedures rather than thinking and supporting to stop such things. It is no easy to convince people as to this what we called ‘good’ or this is what we think is bad.  Until the last day of this world people may say, preach, argue, discuss various things, issues, but can anyone find such moments or will there be any single day without any of such disputes or hazards of life in this world that people can embrace with no hesitations. I am wondering.

We need to understand the fashions behind the wigs and masks and true uses of such things in a very clear way. The faces, objectives of using wigs and masks in life of people one must understand then that would certainly help all to understand not only each and every dealings of life but also each and every single living creatures of this world to at least some extent.

it is easy to go with the faces that we are destined to own rather than using a mask and appear before the society  i like to think and practice. but i very strongly like to emphasize that labeling is something that one must exclude in what so ever dealings of their lives.
