Rubies Costume Willy Chocolate Factory Review

Great wig. My son says it's a bit itchy but I think a hairnet underneath will solve that problem. I was concerned it would be too small but it fits my 8 year old well and has a large head. He really looks like Willy Wonka from Gene Wilder in that hat.

The wig was too bulky to fit under the Willy Wonka hat I was wearing, so I took a pair of scissors and cut out a circular area on my head (leaving a ring of hair around the perimeter stayed). Back then it was *perfect* for the Gene Wilder Willy Wonka effect. I've tried several wigs. This was the only one that worked for me.

Just to clarify, this is not just a boy's wig. My 5 year old daughter wore this for Halloween 2019 when our family became Willy Wonka. After seeing the original movie we wished we could make Willy Wonka as our family Halloween costume. This wig was the best choice for her. It fitted perfectly and went perfectly with the rest of her costume. We won 4 costume contests! The only complaint she had was that she was a little itchy and got a little hot after a while, but that was to be expected.
