First review on my new blog and it's for MoeMall's Rei Ayanami wig! I bought this wig a little while back (along with another of MoeMall's wigs i'll be reviewing soon) so I don't have the original packaging so you'll have to excuse me. Anyway, on with the review!
About MoeMall
My Purchase
I purchased the wig from MoeMall's ebay, found here and the listing for the wig can be found here, on the 3rd of January 2014, it shipped on the 6th (and they gave me a tracking number!) and it arrived at my door on the 28th, within the 13-24 day shipping estimation. It cost 14.30 euro alone and shipping was 5.20. Just to note on the packaging, it was perfectly sealed and protected!
These are the stock photos of the wig that they show (I always check both their ebay listing and website listing of the wig i'm purchasing in case they have any extra info)
The wig is described as:
Specifically made for Rei
Ice blue colour
Fringe to nose tip
Heat Resistant fibers

Review
When I first opened the packet I was so delighted to see the colour, it is exactly like the stock photo! This is what really made me go for the wig as I wanted a more toned down, realistic blue, opposed to the bright blue that most Rei wigs are.
The style isn't exactly like the stock photo, though that is mentioned on the site. If you want to get it styled like the photo all you have to do is run your hands through some of the fibers at the back and brush them to the front around your face, simple!
The fibers are soft and smooth (and having owned it almost two months and worn in a couple times they're still perfect with very minimal loose fibers) and the wig has retained it's bob like shape, seriously, i've brushed it through so many times and it always goes back to perfect form.
The wig cap is truly wonderful. Lucaille wigs cap sizes are really great and roomy (especially for westerners as we usually have bigger heads!). I have a lot of trouble with buying wigs from asia as usually the caps are too small for my head and my long, thick hair but there were no issues with this wig! It's actually super comfy on.
For such a low price I really got an amazing quality wig, it's honestly one of the nicest wigs i've ever purchased but also one of the cheapest!
Just to mention communication - I had no problems whatsoever with MoeMall and didn't need to contact them, they had everything sorted for me.

Overall i'm extremely happy with my purchase and 100% recommend MoeMall for wigs, they have an amazing selection of character styled wigs. I look forward to buying from MoeMall again in the future!
