Excellent

Excellent. I have received so many compliments! Plan to purchase another just like it for a backup if it goes on sale. Thank you for offering natural looking wigs.

I prefer this wig now

I prefer this wig now
The wig was extremely shiny but I finally worked that out. I prefer a mono front as it is easier than lace to blend with your own hair in front. Otherwise it is working. I prefer this wig now.

I love this style

I love this style and have worn it for years. Sometimes you have to work with the style when it arrives with the top sticking straight up. I have acquired products that correct this problem. Do send it back just learn to correct.

Please do not make the same mistake me and my wife did - do not buy from this company!!

Please believe me Howigs is a sham. Their website presents them as a UK distributor but they actually seem to be nothing more than a sweatshop based in Hong Kong selling cheap, inferior wigs. They also do not honour UK consumer guidelines. They have obviously paid to be on top of Google searches as a high ranking ad to get hits. The majority of the positive reviews here on Trustpilot appear fake - if you look carefully there are duplicate/similar comments and broken English.

A month ago my wife bought one as she is having chemotherapy treatment. She changed her mind within half an hour of ordering it and sent multiple follow up emails requesting a cancellation. Howig assistants replied back several times with emails such as this:

Hello,
I'm sorry that you insist on cancelling. Why not give us a chance to send you a perfect wig? The wig is one of our best sellers, we have got many good reviews about this wig, you may like it too. Now we decide to give you 15% discount and another similar style wig as gift.
Could you please consider again?
Best Regards
Maria

They ignored her repeated requests to cancel and dispatched the wig anyway. Now it has arrived Paypal has processed the payment. My wife has requested to return it straight away and is receiving emails like this:

I have tried my best to fight more discount for you.
Hope you can keep the order and give us a chance to send you a perfect wig.
Wait for your kind reply.

We have sent 15 emails and I now have a PayPal dispute open. Each time Paypal has put Howig in their favour (a warning there also) so I have requested it reopened until we get a refund - so the fiasco is ongoing.

This whole purchase has been deeply distressing for my wife while she is going through breast cancer treatment. Howig doesn’t care about her, they just want to ensure a sale goes through and keep your money. I don't want anyone to go through the same situation so please, please DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY.

Great wig

Great wig
Had to return this. The wig itself looks very good, but does not look good on my shape head/face. It is actually a very pretty wig for someone with the right shape to wear it. I knew better when I ordered it, but really liked the look of it. I need to stick to what I know will work for me! Love that returns and credits are so easy with you.

Beautiful wig
