Review (3/5): Needs Some Work to Make it work!
This was my first experience with a wig that wasn’t from Spirit Halloween and I can’t say it was much better. After trying this wig I decided to learn a little more about wigs and I found a ton of info out there about them and how to do a little work on the less expensive ones to make them look better. (ie: thinning them out, plucking the part and hairline, etc.) I also learned about the features of a wig that make it look more realistic, such as synthetic vs human hair/human hair blend, pre-plucked and lace front. Now that I know a bit about wigs I feel more optimistic that I’ll be able to find ones that are affordable yet look more realistic and/or that I’ll be able to work on them a bit to make them look more so. In summary: The part and thickness on this wig are what I think need the most work. There’s virtually no part and the hair on the top is much too dense and puffy. This could be rectified by plucking but the wig is just not worth the work, IMO. The style of it is cute—The length and the waviness of it were exactly what I was looking for. I can’t say the same about the bangs but that’s the part of the wig that would benefit from some plucking and thinning out. The softness is pretty good for a synthetic wig. I can’t comment on tangling because I didn’t keep the wig long enough to see how it holds up. The color is hard to comment on because it looks so different depending on the light—It can look like an ashy light brown with subtle highlights, a darker, less ashy light brown with no dimension to it, and in others it appears to have a mauve-like tinge to it. (You can see the differences in the pics.) In the end I returned this wig and after doing more research I decided I wouldn’t buy another inexpensive synthetic hair wig and instead look for a human hair blend that may be a little more expensive but looks more realistic. The bottom line: I recommend not buying this wig unless you know how to work on a wig to make it look more realistic.
