Review on Get A Glamorous Look With SARLA'S Cheap Synthetic Half Headband Wig For White Women In Dirty Blonde Shade With Thick And Curly Drawstring Cap Ponytail by Craig Edwards

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Maybe for a costume, but not real life

The seller includes a number of extras (hairband, bobby pins, etc.) which is nice, but the wig is the star of the show. And unfortunately, it's not a very bright star. (That's my not-so-clever way of saying I'm not digging it.)The "hair" is too shiny and the texture is too silky. It doesn't move and swing like real hair. I could probably overlook this if the style was right, but that is where this falls apart. The front is much longer than the back, and not like it was on purpose. This isn't an angled bob, it's just poorly cut. The internal workings - the lace cap, clips, and drawstrings - are very nicely done and indicative of a higher end wig, but the inside doesn't matter if what you see on the outside doesn't work. Hanging the wig further back on my head doesn't help, either.As well, the hair does not flip up like in the pictures, probably because it is stored and shipped in a net inside a plastic bag which causes it to take on a different shape. The front flips in multiple directions from the back. Because it's synthetic, you cannot use a curling iron to style it. I'm going to try my Caruso steamrollers which should be gentle enough, but I have my doubts. As far as the length goes, I really don't want to start trimming the wig to even it up. You shouldn't have go to these lengths to make a wig look like it does in the online photos.It looks like some reviewers are happy with their wigs, so maybe it's a quality control issue and just depends on which one you get. As for mine, it would probably be good for a costume (Sandy in Grease, maybe?), but it's not something I'd wear in public otherwise.
