PS. I’ve always known (from my father) that a Peruke (Peh-roo-keh) is another name for a wig, although I’ve only ever heard him use it in the context of a toupee for a male.

I've enjoyed being a computer science professor in Melbourne, Australia, as well as band leader/singer for the Schnapps Band. My high schooling was in Chabad and I continued at Yeshivat Kerem B'Yavneh in Israel and later in life at Machon L'Hora'ah, Yeshivas Halichos Olam.
