The history claims merkin derived from the word ‘malkin,’ a derogatory word for lower class women was primarily worn by prostitutes in order to hide any signs of syphilis. YIKES. Not just the ladies, pubic wigs are also popular among men who put it on after shaving their genitalia and are now used as decorative items, erotic devices, or in adult films.
