Shipping was very quick. I wanted to wait before posting to see how it holds up. First let me start with the wig cap. It's very big so I had to cut it down to fit. For me not a big deal but definitely not throw on and go. The color was more of a brassy blonde just like the picture. But some shimmer lights shampoo toned it down nicely. The hair was very nice until I washed it, there was soooooo much shedding it worried me. (Keep in mind it will return to its normal texture which is a frizzy wave pattern) determined to make it work I sprayed top knot sealer to control the shedding, but it does not! It seems that the hair is just pulled thought the lace and not knotted so just running your fingers though will leave you with a hand full of hair. I wanted a full lace so that I can leave it on for a bit without the daily on off routine. I wore it 5 days, and it has gone from 130%( but in all fairness seemed more like150%) to less than 100% density. I have not washed it again and slept with it wrapped in satin scarf and a satin pillow case just to make sure I don't damage the hair. At this rate it will be bald like me after another few uses :/ I wish the shedding would stop because I truly love the way it looks, I used simply stylin light silk spray and a flat iron and the hair became beautiful again. I hope this helps. If you are ok with just a temporary wig, than this is it! But if you are looking for one that will last a year this is NOT it.UPDATE-I have to say for the price this girl is a deal, still shedding but still looks great after 3 weeks of wearing it removing after each week to wash air dry and flat iron w/the simply stylin light silk spray. It returns to a silky soft and smooth texture. I get so many compliments every day on my hair, I've gone to 4 different wig stores and asked each time why I'd want to cover my beautiful hair. They couldn't believe it was a wig ;)
