    I believe the British Parliament still wears wigs, because they're AWESOME!

    Think they still wear wigs in courts in Australia and New Zealand as well. British barristers and judges wear wigs out of a tradition which has went on for around 400 years.

    The UK.

    They are all bald over there.

    Possibly other parts of the Commonwealth, likely for the same reason. Australia used to.
