Not this one
Color: 1B Off Black
After buying my first Outre wig I have bought several since until I bought this particular one and I was disappointed from the moment I open the package. The look, texture, fullness, or lack of fullness was very disappointing. The wig only cost 30.00 dollars but had I bought it in a wig shop it probably would have cost much more, but when you order online that is a chance that you take. I wouldn't recommend this particular wig if you are looking for the look that the picture portrays. Try one of Outre's others.

Doesn’t last long
Color: DR HAZELNUT BROWN, Color: DR HAZELNUT BROWN
I love a synthetic wavy wig but this one didn’t even last the entire weekend like most do. Look very cute the first day but after that it just didn’t do what I needed it to do any

All eyes on you!
Color: DR2GDNHN, Color: DR2GDNHN
I didn't love this wig straight out of the box but after trimming the wig to frame my face and brushing out the curls (I love big hair), I absolutely fell in love with this unit. I've received so many compliments. Wig does tangle but after applying product the curl pattern returns. Will definitely purchase again!

Gorgeous wig, big head friendly
Color: 1B Off Black
I loved this wig, I have a huge head and have to return now wigs I buy. But this was a keeper, it's synthetic so don't go crazy expecting human hair realness. In the sense that it will tangle in the nape. I detailed and then cut off the undesirables. But for the prize, it worked as half wig with a headband. For the price you can't beat it. I gelled the front alittle and I looked like Selena. Lol if you know the reference then you know. But it looked great with a headband. I wore it on vacation it wasn't too hot, it wasn't exactly cool either. But it was good. For the price I'm buying a few more in other colors. I didn't make it a ponytail yet but that up next.
