Title: Terrible Date: August 11, 2009
"I was very disappointed with the quality of this wig. It doesn't look anything like the picture. When I removed it from the packet it was a matted mess. I did not wear it and hired another wig instead. I definitely do not recommend this product."

"This is the first poor product I've ever gotten from buycostumes. Don't buy this wig- wait for the ones that are "coming soon"! But I will say that they treated me well regarding my dissatisfaction with the product. Buycostumes still rocks."

Title: WASTE of money Date: October 23, 2008
"DO NOT buy this wig!! It looks nothing like the picture and the color is so harsh and the hair just looks like a matted mess! I even tried styling it and the ends were just scraggly and wouldn't do anything. All of my friends said it looked like Albert Einstein's hair rather than marilyn monroe. I ended up returning it and thankfully getting my money back. Word of advice someone looking for a marilyn wig: just look for a platinum blonde wig with short curly hair. I found one that wasn't even called a marilyn wig, and its perfect, and it was only 9 dollars more and well worth it!"

"I have several wigs from years of costume parties, and this has got to be the worst I have ever gotten. It looks NOTHING like the picture and is nearly impossible to work with. If your looking for the Marilyn look, stay the heck away from this mess of a wig, if your going for a "Crazy old Lady" look, this is your wig!"

"The Marilyn Monroe wig would not style to look like the package or the photos I have of M.M. no matter how hard my hairdresser tried. We had to go without the wig and no one knew what my costume was at the party without one.
Do not buy unless you are just looking for a short white haired bag lady looking wig. Waste of money and my time."

"My marilyn Monroe was pulled off fabulous even if the wig was horrible. It does not look anything like the picture. The color is the same but it stops there. There were not many curls in it, I had to do a lot of adjusting with this wig for it to look right. But all and all the without the wig, you wouldn't have known who I was."

"I went to a murder mystery party, and I was given the part of Marilyn Monroe. I could not have pulled the costume off without the platnium blond wig. I did not want to spend a lot of money for a only few hours of use. This wig was the perfect solution. There was no doubt as to who I was supposed to be. The other thing that I really liked about the experience was, it came on time - in time for the big party night. The only complaint that I have is the hair was a little thin at the scalp, and it made my scalp itch like crazy."

"Although the price was good and the shipping on time, I have to say that over all I was very dissapointed with quality of the wig. It arrived flat and unmanagable. It has been a few weeks now and we have the wig on a manaquin head trying to make it look like it did on the package. My daughter is going to be Marilyne Monroe in an upcoming pageant, during her talent portion of competition. So, as you can imagine, we had to purchase another wig."
