Shiela Sexy Bob Wig with Fringe

A new polished fined look

Reviewed: 03 April 2014 by NWTVFiona

I've traditionally been a dark-haired girl, and long at that, but after trying on a friend's blonde wig at a party I thought I would go for it...

The model makes the wig look so good, and hoped it would do the same for me. I have a number of wigs already, ranging from real going out hair to cheap play wigs.

I was expecting the lower end of the scale for this wig, but was very pleasantly surprised when it arrived.

Not in a bag but a sturdy box, then inside was a bag with the wig inside in its own hair net.

I was also surprised at the weight of the wig... Not light and cheap but actually felt like some of my real hair wigs.

I took the wig out of the net and it had plenty of packing inside to help keep the shape, which again showed quality! This is getting better and better, I thought!

And it did not stop there. The hairnet inside the wig was quality too.

The top crown simulating your scalp was good quality lace on the inside and skin tone patch on the outside was very well done. This is usually something you only see on more expensive wigs.

From the crown down and around the head, sections of hair much like hair extensions radiate out to give a full coverage all around the head.

The front fringe section of the wig has a soft felt which makes it comfortable to wear leading down to netted areas, which as normal you locate on the top of your ear.

The elasticated straps which resemble garter straps are good quality also, and have plastic hooks which locate in a variety of locations around the base of the wig depending on the size of your head.

The outward appearance of the wig is slightly more yellow than the pictures, but that could be just lighting. Excellent quality, though, not at all cheap and plastic-looking, has the feel and look of real hair! Wow.

I would advise that you get the wig out and place on a head stand before you put it on or anything that will give the wig time to drop.

Placing the wig on, I always wear a hairnet which, although my own hair is short, does give the wig an even surface on which to sit.

I usually bend over and put my head between my legs, place the front of the wig slightly forward of my own hairline, place 2 fingers on the front of my forehead and pull the wig on from the front back.

I then stand up and pull backward to the desired position.

This wig does have quite a long fringe, so if you have a low hairline then you may want to think about trimming the fringe or you won't cover your hairline. Not a problem, though. I usually get mine trimmed by a hairdresser. They usually very happy to do so and it better to be longer than too short.

Once on, I was surprised. It says close to my head, not sitting up at the top and back like some wigs, and felt so comfortable. I felt so good when I looked in the mirror, and it made me look so different from how I usually look.

I jumped and danced about, even put my head between my legs and shook gently and it stayed where it was ! 10/10 for that... Even some of my more expensive wigs tend to move doing this... so it feel so natural.

Will take a while for all the stray hairs to settle down, but you can use a wig spray, which helps no end.

I wore it all day yesterday from about 8am to 4pm and didn't get too hot in it at all. Because it's short, it keeps your neck cool, and the shape fits nice around your face and cheeks.

If you have long natural hair you should be okay as the net has plenty of room at the back to tuck your own hair in and out the way. It will also add to the curled under look of the bob from the back.

I must say I was not expecting such quality, and am glad I went for the blonde one for a change.

This will certainly be a going out wig more than just a play wig.
