Knitted Wigs by Louise Walker

According to a Daily Mail article, the 22-year-old student from London "began knitting the wigs as part of a final year photography project entitled 'Wooly Head' — but now hopes to use them to give confidence to women dealing with hair loss."

I think they're smashing.

More: "According to Louise, the wigs are the result of a lifetime spent watching her hairdresser mother get creative with customer's locks."

"She said, 'My mum's a hairdresser so I've had loads of different hairstyles and colours over the years. I learned to knit around two years ago — and it took over my life. I like vintage stuff and I was inspired by the recent revival. This is a contemporary take on [the trend].'"

Prediction: Lady Gaga will be getting in touch — I'd put good money on it.

The wigs are awesome, but whoever decided to photograph them against backgrounds of the same color should be fired.
