I purchased this wig to wear as part of a John Lennon costume for Halloween. As far as inexpensive wigs go, I think was one of the best. The hair definitely has a synthetic feel to it -- but it does allow you to do some styling and run a brush through it, unlike some of the other wigs that just get tangled. The bangs on this wig were "really" long, but I just trimmed them to fit my face. It has a pretty good elastic headband inside, that holds the wig on extremely well, eliminating the need for bobby pins or hair clips.
