Forum Novelties Colonial Child Wig

This wig is very nicely made. It fits our sons ages 7, 9, and 11 very well. It has a ponytail in the back with long curls. Very impressive to look at with a nice hat. I bought this to use with the British Redcoat and American Patriot costumes by California Costumes. So much fun for my boys.

Good

It LOOKS adorable. But my son complains about how "itchy" it is when wearing it. ONe of my kids used it for Halloween this year and ended up with a rash on his face and belly from wearing the wig. He has more sensitive skin and had worn it 2 days in a row bc of various evens. My older son bought this wig with a costume to "be" Captain Cook for a school presentation. It all worked great! For short-term use, the wig is fine. wearing for longer periods can cause irritation.

We ordered this for my daughter's colonial project at school. The wig cover education her hair perfectly. The wig fit beautifully and stayed on her head without the need for Bobby pins. The wig wasn't trying either.

Halloween is approaching and I feel compelled to help out - this wig is not great, not horrible. About what you would expect for $11. I have two comments: the style and the sizing. STYLE The picture in the photo depicts the wig as extending well past the ears towards the chin. What you will actually get is a wig that is considerable shorter and barely covers the ears. My daughter is 9 years old and has a fairly small head. She will be wearing a crown on her head, so we need the length on the sides. The shortness is a disadvantage. SIZING Reviews are so subjective - I read one that states this wig fit 11 and 12-year olds. I can't imagine it does. Maybe that reviewer had a wig from an earlier batch with different sizing? Maybe the reviewer wasn't as discriminating as I am with the fit? If I had this to do all over again, I would purchase an adult-size wig because I need the length on the sides for my daughter's costume. As it is, it's not horrible and the effort to return/exchange it is not worth my time. I would recommend this wig for kids up to 7 years old.

We live overseas and I had thought the wig would need recurling when it arrived but surprisingly it looked amazing on my son with very minimal retouching needed. It really looks great on but probably not suited for boys with large heads. My son is 9 and I don't think he will be able to fit much longer.

This was the perfect wig for my sons costume! I was worried it would get all tangled up at school but it held together nicely. He could still use it if he needed to, which is great since boys aren't generally easy on their things, haha!

I am pleased with the quality of this item and the price I paid was reasonable for what I received. It fits well on my 7 year old daughter's head and looks very cute with her colonial girl outfit.

Arrived on time. Great for kids.
