Update to my original review: I purchased a total of 15 of these over the past few years. They were reasonably priced, since they don't last very long. (Six weeks before completely drying out.) It was affordable. The price has been doubled making them significantly more expensive than any online wig store. Sadly, no longer a value.Angelica is my go-to and has been for four years. When I first started wearing her, the 'bangs' were 12" long! Made for a beautiful off the face look with a ton of volume. They changed it two years ago and cut back to a five" fringe, making it difficult to keep the overall design balanced.Noriko makes the finest wig fibers hands down!!! I have spent thousands of dollars over the years on every brand such as JR, (thin and stringy), RW, (Matted, sticky mess in a matter of days), Gabor, (same as RW. Sticky cotton candy in days). None those Manufactures take ownership of their product, and have no idea how that could be. (They will however tell you how to wash and comb it)Noriko colors are the best, and never lose their luster. I live in New York, on the North Fork near the water where were have constant humidity and high dew points. Occasionally she fluffs out a bit, but these fibers are dependable and always manageable.This Vendor shrink wraps the boxes which is brilliant! They're sealed and protected from high heat and moisture. This price is a steal! They aren't 'first run' so they are a slight bit off. For someone like me that modifies anyway, I have to reshape the back to crown to add the coverage I need in the back. The average life span on daily wear for these is about four weeks before she needs a rest. I always have a new one in rotation. I can afford to that with this price, whereas spending $140 and higher, makes it difficult.I gave it 4 stars since they are a bit off, but definitely nothing that anyone would notice!I can't recommend this Seller or Angelica enough!This wig is absolute beautiful! I got the color Champagne R as it is the closest to my current "real" hair color. It matches almost perfectly (I leave out a small amount of hair around my hairline to make it look as natural as possible) and it's very comfortable to wear! Also has very nice movement and is the length of my real hair also! Virtually undetectable!I recently started wearing wigs after my hair stylist literally chemically burned my scalp 4 days before my wedding a few months ago. I lost a good amount of hair, and my hair is so so thin and stringy now.... completely ruined a I need to chop off a good 6-7 inches but I'm dreading it. Not to mention the breakage from the high heat tools she used the day of my wedding. (I couldn't find another hairstylist last minute to do my and my bridesmaids hair so I was stuck with her but obviously have not gone back). I have never been able to find a good hairstylist, I have been to luxury salons and cheaper ones, I also live in LA and if it's not working for you here, don't know what else to do!I have tried many extensions, halo and clip in (won't do semi permanent because of the damage) and still nothing...also I am not to keen on heat styling my own hair because my hair is my baby. Besides coloring, I will do anything and everything to care for it and keep it in the best condition possible!I have always been on the quest to have perfect hair. I think I have finally come to terms that the perfect hair I want will mostly likely never be my own! And that's ok because I have discovered wigs!Please, to anyone out there with a similar experience or is completely without hair, it's ok! Don't let people and the stigma of wearing a wig get to you! My friend told me she was even jealous because she felt that I was cheating and it's not fair that I have perfect hair all the time! Lol it takes me 5 min to do my hair now and I love it! Own it and love it! This is a Hollywood secret! Look at Kim Zolciak even, I had no idea she wore wigs and it's just amazing what they can do!The only thing I do not like about this wig is the permatease, but for a full wig this is the least I've paid and the best I've received. Perhaps someday I will venture into human hair wigs but for now I am loving the clip in and go!I have installed clips to keep it secure, like the kind for clip in extensions.I will be purchasing more in different colors.Hope this review helps, I know what it's like to do lots of research to make the best informed decision as possible!I only buy this brand. Great quality.The wig is great for a machine cap construction. I️ was most disappointed with the service from this seller I️ paid $8.99 to get this the next day. I needed it for an event and also ordered it to see if the champagne color was right for me. I planned to order the Shilo in the same color as I️ prefer a mono top. I️ will not order this wig now, at least not from this seller as I️ received it on Tuesday when I️ had Saturday delivery promise with the added cost!!! My rating is 1 star service and 5 star on the wig.I am delighted! Special for my 68th birthday, I got the most beautiful wig in the worl (Noriko- Angelica #1625) in Champaign color, very light silver blonde with darker roots. I feels like it floats, makes me look 20 years younger and no I do not want to sew it to my hair like extensions. I braided it to go to the pool and my hair stylist cut very natural bangs. I see myself ordering another one really soonThis wig is perfect in every way. Fits your head just right, the color is stunning, u can wash it and hanflg upside down overnight to dry. The next day it looks new. I've had ppl ask for my colorist and swear I was lying when I told them.Wonderful wig, the dark roots make the color look more realistic.If you have a lot of hair use a wig cap. Root hair color matched hair line flawlessly very natural people thought I had dyed it again. Color is shiny (if really was healthy) might use Sebastian dry shampoo on a few pieces to make it less brilliant. Seems longer than shilo wig , so tempted to trim it... will have a ton of fun.Worth the money color was great!For Years I wear the Angelica by Noriko. My favorite color is Champagne R second favorite is Sandalewood H ...always with roots, for most natural look.I tried lace front many times, but it is not needed with this one. As long as you have a root..nobody will guess its a Wig! :)
