Franco American Novelty CompanyEgyptian Cleopatra Wig with Headband Black

did the job. although i am not a fan of wigs so not sure if i would wear again. hair stayed in place and was shiny and easy to maintain. wasnt as itchy as i expected so that was a nice surprise. has a small net inside to hold your own hair into place. i have very thick and long curly hair and i just split my hair into 4 sections and put my hair into a couple small buns all over my head before putting it on (i was told to do that by someone who works with wigs in shows). as i was putting it on the sequence kept getting caught in the strands of hair, make sure you have someone to help you as you are putting it on. but once it was on everything stayed in place. not super high quality but like i said it did the job

This wig was great for what we needed it for. My 10 year old daughter wore it for Halloween. The fit was good. She managed to keep it on (with braids underneath) for the entire length of the Halloween party (2 hours max). It's a synthetic wig so you can not comb it, brush it or do anything with it. It will be a MESS! Overall, it's good but I don't expect to ever be able to reuse it. I think if you have consecutive Halloween events then you may get away with more then one use. If you are expecting to recycle this for next year's Halloween events, think again!

Purchased to go along with my Cleopatra costume. Very good wig - only complaint is that the net on the inside which is there to secure it to your head is quite small (as I have a lot of hair) and so I had to get creative to cover up my natural hair so it wouldn't poke through - I used a swim cap! It probably won't be a factor if you have shorter hair, but just a tip in case your hair is longer or very thick. Overall, this made the costume as I am a redhead so the transformation to this hair was awesome!

I got this wig to go with my cleopatra costume for Halloween. It came carefully tucked in a hair net. If you are careful taking it out of the hair net and putting on/off it stays nice. The cap is not tight even with my shoulder length hair tucked in. You may however want to pin it in place. Don't try using a comb or brush on it just your fingers. It is a low cost synthetic wig not meant for recombing and styling. I love it with the right eye makeup I look like Cleo!

This wig is very poor in the way of design. The band that is going around the wig is sewn on in as some was in a hurry. The bangs was cut in a choppy fashion and with the band going around across the headband, it cause the bangs to lift away from your forehead. So I took off the headband part so that the bangs could lay flat against my forehead, it work. But, there was another problem hairs of the wig is made from a very poor material that causes it to get very tangle and don't even think about trying to comb it, it became even worst. The hair strands of the wig would become so static that when you comb through the wig it become even more tangle and I am talking a very light and gentle combing of the wig and not tugging on the wig. I just couldn't take it anymore when the hair strands of the wig kept on fighting with the teeth of the comb. Bad product materials in making up this wig but a very nice style. What good is the style when the make up of the wig leave you to continue to manufacture it before wearing it out in the public.. This wig is a two thumbs down for me.

Worked great for daughter's cleopatra outfit. Minus a star because headband kept riding up and pulled the wig with it. Daughter had to keep pulling it down and her hair under the wig would get all messed up. But, she still liked it enough to wear it around the house for fun.

I got this for Mardi Gras to add to a costume. It's nice. Came wrapped in a hairnet so it wouldn't be tangled, and once brushed out, it was a good costume wig. I didn't have any issue with the bangs being too long. And unlike other costume wigs, it's not too tight so it won't cut off circulation. Trust me, that's important if you're out and about! It actually looks very close to the picture. I'm ready to get some great throws with this baby!

This is not a bad wig if you are dressing up as an old Hollywood style Cleopatra, but would be silly if you were trying for something more historically accurate. The bangs were very uneven.
