The wig is not as long as the one seen in the picture (but not too much shorter). The length falls about two inches past the shoulder. However, the wig looks great and is made well for a costume wig. I am using it in a play and am finding that stored on a wig holder it is holding up very nicely. I have used it multiple times now and am very happy with it. For the price you really can't go wrong with this wig. I think my daughter will enjoy it once I'm done with it for her dress up!
