    Ummm ackchully the powdered wig look didn’t take off until the mid-16th century (funny enough, started because of the syphilis epidemic, a disease which came from contact with the New World) and was reserved for the wealthy elite at the time. Most sailors getting off the first boats would’ve just been wiry, deformed, and pock-marked hunchbacks ☺️☺️
