Hair design salon owner Richard Glass said Heche randomly bought a red wig in his shop shortly before she died. The transaction took place on August 5 at Glass Hair Design in Venice Beach, California, according to Entertainment Weekly.
Richard Glass disclosed that the actress bought the wig the day she fatally crashed her car into a Los Angeles home.
“She wasn’t speaking in cursive, I say that when people are impaired,” he reportedly told EW.
“They speak in cursive like slurring your words,” Glass continued. “But she wasn’t, she was very, very cordial. Very personable and very polite. The whole encounter was maybe 10 minutes, it wasn’t huge, but it was strange all the same and random.”
