Days of Our Lives fame Lisa Rinna has been talked about for much more than just her acting and presence on a reality TV show. She's made headlines for her love of wigs and has admitted that she uses wigs.

Over the years, her wigs have become a signature part of her look, allowing her to break free from the iconic short hairstyle she has sported for two decades.

The fans have started to wonder how and why she did it, and Rinna has shared how it was going from the 'had-to-be' of the maintenance of the usual hairstyle to a whole new world with wigs.


Days of Our Lives: Lisa Rinna's introduction to the wig

Lisa Rinna's hairstyle journey started during a 2015 Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion. One of her co-stars, Brandi Glanville, said that Rinna had maintained the same hairstyle for 20 years.

While Glanville's comment might have sounded insulting to some, this served as her fuel. That made her do something different and come out of her comfort zone. Rinna later said that Glanville's comment is what encouraged her to start trying out wigs; she said the change felt liberating and FUN.

The first time Rinna ever wore a wig was for a shoot, and when she saw how it could transform her look so dramatically, she never looked back.

Wigs aren't some occasional thing for Rinna; they have become part of her public persona. Her wigs have ranged from blonde locks with bangs to curls of red hue, and she's even given them playful names. Whether "The Raquel" or "The Heidi," each wig is a chance to don a different character on Days of Our Lives and other shows.

For Rinna, wigs have become an artistic expression connected to her roots as an actress. They are one way she can change her looks without having to do anything too permanent to her hair.

On days when she knows she will have to film a scene and is particularly not filled with energy or unwillingness, putting on a wig gets her into a different character. It adds an element of excitement to her day-to-day life and gives her an easy way out when she wants a change of look.
