Last minute Halloween purchase for a princess peach costume: the wig was super affordable and for that price: it turned out to be a really nice wig! It was really pretty! It didn’t look cheap at all. Might even say it looked quite real when we tried it on! It’s so soft and bouncy, it’s really pretty: and looks like it’ll get many uses throughout the years for cosplay! It even included a bald cap and there’s little adjustments to fit head sizes!
Would highly recommend!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best wig I've gotten on Amazon!!!
I bought this wig for a cosplay!.It's exactly as shown in the picture, the color is perfect! It's very soft and doesn't tangle often! The quality is amazing for such a low price! It only sheds when brushed a lot. It's very comfortable, a little itchy, but that's what you would expect from any wig! It's good with heat as well! I straightened it at 250° f. It took two hours to fully straighten it because it is thick! The bangs came very long and I had to trim them A LOT but, that's a good quality because you can cut them however needed! Overall a great buy!! I definitely recommend!

4.0 out of 5 stars Inexpensive wig, good customer service
EDIT: I ordered additional wigs to use for wefts to fill out the wig and something on them made me get a rash, I had left a bad review and the company immediately contacted me to find out what happened we went back and forth a bit with pictures and they said that it seemed like the wig may have been a return that was used, and they offered to send me new wigs or refund me. A+ for customer service.

So first off the fiber in this wig is pretty nice, very soft and silky, and not too shiny, a far cry from most cheap Halloween/party store wigs. the color is fairly accurate to what was pictured.
However this is a VERY cheap wig, the cap base is what I call "onion bag style" rather than being a normal wig base with fine mesh that is shaped to the head, it's just a loose sack of coarse mesh that pulls over your head. in the photo I attached you can see that and also see how far apart the wefts are spaced, pretty much any way that you move the hair you will be able to see the mesh beneath, so don't plan on wearing it any way other than down, exactly how it comes out of the bag.
All that being said I paid about $12 for this and this is very nice for a $12 wig. This is much nicer quality than a wig that you would get for that price at a place like a Halloween store.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great option for styling + staying in budget
I've been using MapofBeauty wigs for my cosplays for a few years now because of the very good price point and quality.
They are great bases for styling into whatever character/style you'd like, they're heat resistant when I crimp, steam, and curl them. They are wearable out of the bag but I heavily recommend styling/learning to style them to make them look even better. And they are accurate to the colors in the product photos(I got the silver gray for reference).
it is important to keep in mind that they will shed, which is to be expected at this price point, but in that same way I really can't complain.
Definitely a brand I recommend to those that don't want to spend $$$ on a wig when these get the job done.

It was tough to style the wig which was a major issue for me but other than that it was a great wig!

My daughter bought this for a cosplay. She is happy with the style and the shine. I'm happy that for a synthetic wig it hasn't tangled too badly yet. i like that its affordable for people who want to cosplay

5.0 out of 5 stars A pleasant surprise!
My expectations were not high for a wig at this price point, but I needed a wig fast and this one was the right color. The wig arrived and I was really surprised with the quality. While it's definitely not comparable to cosplay wigs from stores like Arda or Epic Cosplay, it's pretty good quality for what you're paying!
The wig is THICK for starters, meaning you don't get the visible wefts you often see on budget wigs. Immediately out of the bag she's going to look shiny and 'cheap' but with a little trimming and hairspray, I was able to fix her up and reduce that shine (some of the sparkly bits in my pictures are intentional from the tinsel) . If you're also struggling with shine, I would recommend using baby powder or washing with laundry detergent to help reduce that.
The wig does shed a bit if you're messing around with the hair and doing some more intensive work on it, but there's so much hair on there to begin with that I don't think it makes that much of a difference. Additionally, the wig is very prone to tangling. Again, I was going some heavier styling on the wig and was tangling up the whole thing, but it brushed out easily. I didn't notice any major tangling issues wearing it around a con all day, but if that's something you're worried about, you can spray it down with some silicone spray to keep it smooth and tangle-free.
Ultimately, this is a great wig for such a budget-friendly price, especially if you know how to work with it. Whether you're looking for a cheap wig for Halloween, a cosplay event, or just for fun, I can absolutely recommend this product.

4.0 out of 5 stars Works alright, wefts are thin in the back
I used this wig similar to another reviewer for a Mitsuba cosplay, and they were absolutely right that the wefts were pretty far apart and would reveal if you use it in a ponytail. I cut the hair down to length and then glued long strands of what I had cut off, but it was a multi-hour venture that I don't know if I would attempt again if I could help it because of how awful it was to try and cover up all of the spots between the wefts. Also, the wig gets scratchy through the wig cap and it was uncomfortable after less than an hour. The color was great for the cosplay though. It's a little duller than what my monitor showed it as, but it worked out in the end.
