Question: Do you consider a toupee to be a hat or part of someone's head!?
Isn't it essentially a hat made of either fake hair or real hair, if so then why don't people take their toupees off before the national anthem at a baseball game!.

When does a hat of fake hair cease to be a hat and become a part of a person's head!? I kind of think it isn't a hat but what if it was a full blown rainbow clown wig, that would be considered a hat, it's essentially the same thing though isn't it!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

A prostesis, which is somewhere in between!. Its an artifical part of the body!. Although it probably is a little insulting to compare it to an artificial leg or hand!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
