We cut off the ribbon (sorry, Snow White!) which was attached with a thread on each end plus a line of hot glue along the length in the middle, and used some bobby pins to transform this into an Inigo Montoya wig. My son reported it was a bit itchy, but wasn't horrible. The wig is very full. We didn't put much work into shaping/styling it, and I think it looked great, even after being worn almost all day!
