Review (2/5): Too heavy for use
Out of the box, I loved this. It's soft and smooth and looks like decent quality.
Unfortunately, usability is another thing. The pony tail is HEAVY. And while it didn't seem to matter that my own ponytail was small, the weight of the extension was uncomfortable and it felt like it would slip off at any minute, even when I added an extra scrunched and some clips to hold it down.
The other question I have is regarding the hair itself. Mine was just a little too shiny and perfect to be real human hair. And while I don't have a scientific test at home, anyone can burn a few strands of hair and see how they smell. I did this and then burned a bit of my own and they do NOT burn or smell the same at all. If I had to bet money, I would bet that this is just really good synthetic hair.
But the hair quality is good regardless of what it actually is. It's the fact that it's not usable as a ponytail that makes it less desirable. I may try to use this to sew into a hat for winter because I love the "hair," but really wonder how the other reviewers got this to stay on their head without feeling like they have a heavy weight pulling out their hair.
