Hi everyone. I am a 24 year old Petroleum Engineer currently working as a night foreman on a drilling rig who is considering a hairpiece. Are there any wearers on this site that happen to work in the oilfield? How is it working out for you? Specifically, how does the attachment stand up to extreme hot/cold temperatures and sweat, how easy is it to clean out drilling fluid or cuttings from the shale shakers if they were to get in your hair, and have you had any problems with hard hat usage over the hairpiece? Also, I currently work a 2 weeks on/2 weeks off schedule, and my understanding is that wearers typically reattach every 2 weeks. Is it a problem if I go slightly longer than 2 weeks for reattachment so that I can limit this to my days off? My job is not quite as strenuous as most jobs on the rig, but these are all things I will have to deal with and I would be interested in knowing if this is a viable option for me.
