Comfort & Wig Shape
Wig shape is all right, since there are no side combs it makes it hard for a secure wig. I know many ladies like to secure their wigs with bobby pin (hair pins), but I like the added comfort of combs.

Wig Accuracy and Length (Accurate As Shown on Website)
The lenght is not the same as it looks online: In the front of my "Darling" is is shorter, the back of this wig lenght looks about the same maybe half a inch longer online and on the mannequin.


Two Issues with Length


1. This wig have layers but not as many layers as shown online and the front this wig does not reach past collar bone lenght (almost touching the top of the chest). I do understand the wig is on a mannequin head instead of a human head or my own head but still...


2. The wig looks fuller thicker online, and the wig has little body and is flat and the hair is much more thin, not at all as full as the pictures online.  


Lace Difficulty and "Baby Hair"
Since lace has to be cut, it was difficult to cut correctly with the baby hairs only a small patch I thought I blindly cut more baby hairs then I actually did. I check the lace there was only a small section of baby hair and I made sure not to cut it.

The lace is very visible when the hair is pull slightly back or up, I tried the hair pin method it does not work since there isn't a gap where tracks start, many wigs have spaces near the ear so it easy to slide hair pin near the ear, it was not possible I was trying to push hair pin through solid lace. 

The only way to wear this wig is straight down, I cannot show my ears unless I want to show unwanted lace or my own hairline, the poor workmanship on the side of the ears is irritating.

Hair Quality 

The quality of the hair seem all right for now, I had this wig for only a couple of days, I will write a follow up review of this wig in about 2 weeks of wearing.

Texture
It has slip, which I love to feel on new hair, but it is a synthetic fiber so it does have a course plastic doll like feel to it as well.


Shedding
This Wig sheds like crazy I wear this wig for work and I must wear a thin hair net to ensure hair isn't falling all over the place because it sheds just by me moving. I am Not Lying, a slight tug and 3-4 hairs are in my hands. Combing the hair is ok, but in some places 4-5 hairs come out in the comb, in some areas the tracks are very loose.


Styling
I find it a little difficult to cover the top back part of the wig, where the top of the head "the hump" of the wig is located. What I am trying to cover is the tracks, if I do not smooth the thin layer of hair over this part of the wig it is very visible to see, it is not possible to wear this wig in many styles. I seriously doubt I can have an up-do like the model below. As for heat I haven't tried to style it with a curling iron (flat iron). I will give an update on heat styling soon.

Care
Haven't washed this wig yet. Update Coming Soon.

Comfort & Wig Shape
I had to get use to this wig, the wig near both of the ears was not shaped for your ears which makes it uncomfortable and oddly made. Also many others who purchase this wig complained that the wig itself was far too large, creating a puffy dome look, even spacey looking head shape. I was able to create a nice smooth even head shape with my wig, I cannot say if my head is larger or smaller then most people's, I just don't know.

Length (Accurate As Shown on Website)
The bangs are longer than shown on the websites, I believe many wig manufacturers take upon themselves to alter the wig in their favor so more people buy them.

Hair Quality 

The quality of the hair fiber is good Lynx's doesn't look like doll's hair, or extremely shiny fake synthetic hair. The wig (is made of human hair blend), I don't know what that really means, but the color I picked #4, looks really good.

Texture
Silky Soft to the touch fibers makes this wig a little lovable, besides the goof of the non-ear shaping on both sides of the wig, the quality of the hair I would say is very good. I imagine if this wig was a shoulder lenght layered cut I'd buy more than one.


Shedding
It doesn't shed that much and styling was easy, there was no tangling though short lenght wigs are easier to manage when it comes to tangles.


Styling
You can curl this wig but from my experience I am not sure the curls hold from just curling with a curling iron alone, extra styling with curlers and hair products is probably needed to hold curls longer than a couple of hours.

Care
This wig washes well, I place the wig in a bucket filled with cool water till the wig was submerged completely in water. A small drop of conditioner or shampoo can be used to condition and clean hair as well. The good thing is that a few days out of the plastic and the wig loss it's manufactures smell and was replaced by the hair gloss I styled the wig with: which is great.

Side Note: Placing your wig in water completely is Not recommend for most wig care.

The only down side is the difficulty in originality, I would walk into offices and see white ladies with the same side swoop bob, I would laugh. Also though its easy to put this wig on brush and comb the hair to your desires, I couldn't help but think the bangs on this wig seemed a little too long,it kinda reminded me of Justin Beber's famous locks.
