It takes a village to dress a drag queen. Behind every fierce drag queen there’s an even fiercer queen helping her to look her best. For years Steven Perfidia Kirkham has styled wigs for some of Broadway’s biggest shows and many of your favorite drag queens and entertainers.
Today Perfidia, wig stylist to the stars, joins us to talk about all the glorious big wigs from Lady Bunny to RuPaul, and what it was like in the Wigstock and Club Kid scenes of the 90s.

What an awesome interview… and Mark, I love your joke.
Does any one know where I can see the movie The Queen? The one that Perdia talks about on the wig styling video.
Just got me some Yma Sumac. Love it! Jerri Blank is one of my favorite tv characters ever, so it was very interesting to hear this interview
YAY STEVEN, YAY MISS PERFIDIA! He’s another fabulous entry in my “Born This Way” book! You gotta see his adorable photo! He’s 4 years old and in his sister’s dress and sun bonnet! 🙂
