Love it

I've bought several of this style in different colors, it's a super flattering cut and looks very natural. The back bottom does get matted after awhile and needs daily attention but with use of the detangling spray and a good conditioner, it does fairly well. I have replaced it a few times but for me it's worth it, it just looks amazing.

Love this style

It is the style I go to often. I have bought several colors, but like this one the best. I like that I don’t have to trim it and I can just shake it and go. You can wear it more more edgy and spiky or tone it down by combing it.

recommend

This is the only way that I can wear. It's the only one that looks good on me that doesn't have too much hair. It's beautiful and really flatters me. Sometimes the quality does very on these wigs. This one that I got this time was one of the best I've had. I highly recommend this wig.

My third wig

This is my third wig. I purchased them in three different colors. The colors were perfect out of the box. Take them out of the box, give them a shake and they are ready to go. Wash and condition them, and they return to that exact look.

Greatful

You so much for giving me a quick refund on the wig that came in the wrong color it's rare to see a company stand behind their word. I will be buying from you again and again . Thank you.

New to wigs

I love this white out look. It’s a fun wig to wear. I wouldn’t wear it every day but truly love the look. I just ordered a new wig in a more natural color and can’t wait to get it!

I'm loving it!

I'm loving it!
I have never worn a wig but love this look. I remember when I was a kid, my next door neighbor, Miss Catherine, used to cut out hair as a favor to my mom. I cut out a picture from a newspaper that had a similar style to this (a little less edgy, though) and brought it to her. She told me that I'd never be able to have that kind of style because my hair was so fine and bodiless. Hey, now I can and I'm loving it!

excellent experience. my second wig

Very pleased with color and styling of wig. The wig came with a wig comb. Definitely pleased with quality. I added a few wig combs/clips to hold it in place more securely. Would be a nice add of feature if you could order these.

Do not use this company!

Do not use this company!! Like others before me I fell into the trap, wish I’d read the reviews first. Wig was not what was ordered and trying to get a refund or an address to send it back is proving impossible. Fake!!! Only wish I could give them 0 stars!

OMG, I feel sick.

OMG.
I feel sick. I ordered 2 wigs and some other items from this company 2 days ago. I thought it was in the UK as that's what it stated. I don't buy items from abroad as I have been ripped off several times before.
I have just seen the reviews on trustpilot about this company and it has knocked me sick.
I spent 4 days looking for wigs on line and I decided on this UK site as it appeared legitimate.
I am a pensioner and as another of your reviewers I too have autism. As if we don't have enough to contend with.
I paid by PayPal and I haven't got a clue what I'm going to do next.
How is this even allowed to happen?
Any information would be greatly appreciated.

PAYPAL enable Howig scam...

I ordered a wig on 23/04/19 from what I believed to be a UK company. The fun & games started on receipt of the most poor excuse of a wig arrived - I opened a case via PayPal uploaded photos etc. All the while receiving emails daily from wigpayment @ g mail - asking for more money, basically offering discount if I closed the case. I replied to not one. I made PayPal aware of the distress the emails were causing- I have autism and have been overwhelmed since the wig arrived. I requested that Paypal ask them to stop communicating outside of the case. I also added details of various other wig companies connected to Howigs. No response from PayPal. Today the request came through to return wig to China. I contacted PayPal by telephone and was transferred to their Dublin call centre- Keith took the call and claimed PayPal had never had any issue with the company. I made him aware pretty much straight away that I had communication issues and he proceeded to talk over me "return the item or you will not be refunded" I then made Keith aware that I was recording the call - I didn't get the opportunity to state why because he went off on a rant and ended the call!

HOwigs is terrible company

Product NOT as advertised. More like a Halloween costume wig, rather than something you can use. Maybe they are HORE-wigs... Totally junk products, and totally junk communications (e-mails, out of China) with customers. If there is a "positive" review - it is a fake.
Do NOT order from HOwigs. Terrible product, 2 month delivery, rip-off.outfit.
Thumbs down.

Pure scam

Pure scam. Gaslighters and criminals. I had insomnia, stress and anxiety because of them and their scam. Paypal saw sense and kindly refunded me. They do not care about you - just ask for more money to put right. Full-on scam. Reported to police.

Howigs.co.uk - another Chinese con

I recently discovered that howigs.co.uk registered their domain with the stolen name and address of a woman living in England. This is probably common practice amongst all the scam wig websites to disguise the fact that the company is Chinese. More info on my forthcoming website.
