kim zolciakKim with wig ...Who knew that you could drum up publicity and get attention for being a white girl who wears a wig? Kim Zolciak from the Real Housewives of Atlanta, that's who. The mother of four is known for wearing all kinds of huge, blonde wigs and even went so far as to start her own line of long, flowing toupees, so it took fans by surprise when she retweeted a photo of herself sans hairpiece.

Her stylist took the pic showing off Kim's locks au natural, and wow, you won't believe what it looks like:

Just kidding. Here's the real pic:

Boom -- you just got Kim dewiggified. Did anyone else half expect her hair to look like the first pic ... all oxygen deprived, randomly burnt, and patchier than a goddamn quilt? Turns out under those piles and piles of fake hair lies a beautiful and natural head of hair that hasn't been mistreated or totally ignored.

I don't know about you, but I happen to think Kim looks way better without a wig than with a wig. I swear, sometimes I'm not sure if she's wearing a wig or more of a hair helmet in some cases -- I think she needs to show off her god-given locks before it's too late.

Because sooner or later, if you keep your real hair under wraps for so long, it'll start to look like that first pic, only blonde, and with no really significant eye problems. Hopefully.

Do you like it better when Kim wears a wig or goes natural?
