At a time when wigs are increasingly popular, the artisans who make them by hand are a vanishing breed. Stephanie Park, the general manager of Apollo Beauty Land in Harlem — where @demetrius.freeman took this photo of #wigs on display — said sales were down at the hair supply store this winter. “People are doing it themselves,” she said. “People are getting crafty.” In the past, apprentices had to spend months sweeping workshops and learning to sort hair before they could begin to make a wig. Today, people can simply watch YouTube. Our reporter @correality took a look at the last Old World wigmakers in New York City. In Midtown, Korean-American wholesalers sell #wigs in bulk in the human hair district, and a roomful of wigmakers weaves hair for the @metopera and Broadway musicals. At the hair emporiums along 125th Street in Harlem and Fulton Avenue in Brooklyn, women sort through styles with names like Senegalese Twist and Peruvian Bodywave. In parts of Brooklyn and Queens, among the few public places you’ll find Orthodox Jewish women not wearing their wigs is the swimming pool. The men and women trained in the centuries-old trade of hand-tying wigs are not making the hot-pink bobs you’ll find at Halloween stores.
