Liked the gray hair.

Perfect for a school biography. It was comfortable for an hour if he had to wear it. The hair was easy to work with and looked great.

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • You could choose a newer model

Exactly what we were looking for

Benjamin Franklin's superb costume. We ended up buying the wig separately as well as a colonial era hat. Everything was perfect for my 10 year old son's presentation.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • The list will be long.

It turned out great, touched up a bit

The wig turned out great! That's right, we ironed it a little so that the hair was straight, like in the picture. We put a towel between the iron and hair and used the "steam" setting. Just a few seconds and some brushing and viola! it was straight (CAUTION: Do not put a hot iron directly on your hair. It will melt)

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Goes with

He was also super curly. Luckily I read other reviews about it.

Definitely not Ben Franklin. The bald portion of the wig was only about 2 inches long and still lay flat on my son's forehead without giving the illusion of being partially bald as needed. He was also super curly. Luckily I had read other reviews on this item and expected that I would have to spray and iron it to smooth it out. At $13.59 it was the cheapest I could find for a school project, but it's still more than I would be willing to pay for such a disappointing item. Just once I want to…

Pros
  • Permanent test results
Cons
  • No automatic

Great wig and good price.

The wig was knotty and wavy when it arrived but I figured I'd find a way to straighten it even if it would kill me to try. I watched videos on YouTube and just warm water and Downey in a spray bottle and it instantly relaxed me. Dousing the wig with boiling water sealed the deal. Straight hair. I then took it to my stylist and she cut it to fit my son so he could wear it for the school wax museum. I also used the curling iron after drying it with a heat spray and curling it up nicely. Everyone…

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Nothing here
