I’m Dasia, and as a licensed cosmetologist I’ve learned that there is a good and a bad way to go about shopping for hair and beauty products, especially online.
In my 4 years of professional experience, you get to try out a lot of different products and quickly see the benefit in learning towards good quality in all aspects, not just the hair itself.
I’m going to review a wig from the company Divas Wigs. This hair was purchased without an incentive, and a 100% honest review will be given.
Overview
Divas Wigs was founded on the fact that the company was able to provide premium quality hair at an affordable price. No matter what type of hair you are looking for, Divas Wigs have proved they have you covered.
The store was a bit distracting but had everything you may need accurately categorized. The breakdown of products was very specific, allowing for the customer to find exactly what they may need.
While the company specializes in lace front wigs, they are able to have a specific target audience. Having this in mind, they provide luxury lace front wigs along with a variety of other products that may be needed to complete a full look.
For me personally, the customer support section of the company was hard to work with. I never got any updates on the hair and it was difficult to reach out and try to talk to anyone about any concerns I may have had.
Delivery for this product was just about a week. It seemed about average for most hair places. The hair arrived damage free in cute packaging. Overall, I had no complaints with the shipping part of this service.
There was an alarming amount of customers who were not satisfied with the products they ordered as well as the service. This goes to show the importance of research and also knowing how trustworthy a place may be.
What I Like
- Invisible HD Lace – The lace blends seamlessly into the skin.
- VIP customer – allows customers to earn extra incentives just by shopping.
- Density – The density was the perfect match for the length of the hair.
What I Don’t Like
- Hairline –the hairline was in a distinct straight line that looked unnatural.
- Doesn’t ship to P.O boxes – Limiting business with potential customers.
- Return policy – the company only gives you 48 hours to complete a return.
Hair Quality
Hair strand
This hair is 100% Brazilian virgin hair and when you run your fingers through it you can tell how soft the strands are. The curl pattern is uniform and bounces back right away after being stretched straight.
Since the hair strands are so light weight the unit does happen to have some fly aways that stick up freely but nothing a little product can’t fix.
The hair was purchased in the color natural black but the hair appears to be more in the dark brown shade range. Regardless, the hair is rich in color and in uniform from root to tip living up the real virgin hair.
Hairline
This unit was marketed as having a realistic hairline. I think they were so close to succeeding with this title.
The closure is made of super fine invisible Swiss lace. I think this lace is what makes the hairline look so good, it really does blend into the skin. The one downside is the pattern at which the hair is sewn into the lace.
While the knots are thin and bleached, they are sewn in a distinct straight line making it not look natural. The most customization you would need with this unit is a subtle plucking of the front hairs to diffuse the lines.
Density
This hair was purchased in a 150% density which is perfect for the 14’’ length. The hair is thick throughout and doesn’t get thinner at the ends of the hair.
One thing to note about this unit is the density of the closure flows nicely with the rest of the wig. Oftentimes, closures can feel thinner than the rest of the wig making the top of the hair to area balding.
This product had two different density choices. For the price, I think they could have offered one more high density and not have a surcharge.
Construction
The unit is made with a 5×5 HD invisible lace closure. This super fine invisible lace takes up the front middle part of the unit. This is pretty average for closures.
The remainder of the unit is composed of a cap. It’s made from a material that has a good amount of stretch which allows it to seamlessly adjust to the size of your head.
The wig is sewn well, the lines are straight and no access string. The one thing to keep in mind is the side hairline does slightly expose the tracks if not styled right. The company could have easily solved this problem by adding more wefts that wrap around.
Cap Size
The company does allow you to choose between 3 different cap sizes, large, average, and petite. This is a great added customization on the company’s part. This wig was purchased in the average size.
The unit comes equipped with 4 combs; two on the side, one at the nape, and one behind the closure. This ensures the unit can be secured.
Along with the cap itself being stretchy, the unit also has elastics on the side to further tighten the unit if it is too big to fit properly. A stretchy cap is ideal since it’s easier to conform to the shape of your head.
Store Experience
The store was good but it had a lot going on and could be distracting to the eye if you don’t know what you are exactly looking for. The first thing you see when you access the site is their 360 lace wigs and the benefits as to why these are such good wigs.
They also have a chart that breaks down why you should look into investing in a HD wig. The reason this is so beneficial for a site is it backs up their products with real life examples of the hair piece in action.
The site accurately categorizes not only the products but also the company information such as the company start and different policies that could be of benefit to a purchaser.
Instead of grouping them together in categories like wigs or weaves they further break them doesn’t into very specific types of wigs. This allows the customer to easily find what they are looking for in one go instead of spending valuable time searching the site.
Range of Products
Divas Wigs has a really intriguing way of marketing their products and highlighting them on the site. The company has a lot of choices when it comes to lace wigs. They have a wide range of HD lace and real looking scalp wigs.
Many other companies decide to widen their target audience but selling a variety of different things, Divas wigs however focuses solely on wigs. This allows for them to further showcase their specialty.
Most of the common best sellers are lace front wigs along with a u part wig with both are thoroughly showcases. Their instagram even does a good job in showcasing products.
Customer Support
The customer service provided has two main sources of service, email and phone. Their services are available 5:30 am to 9:00pm EST. They highlight that is you decide to send an email, allow the company 48 hours to get back to you
The company does also have a live chat but I couldn’t get mine to work. This was due to the fact that the representative was offline. While this was the case, the chat is likely to be online during the specific time devoted to foreigners.
The company also has various forms of social media that they can use to get in contact with potential customers as well as existing.
Delivery Time
A big positive with Divas Wigs is the fact that free shipping is provided worldwide. When you are already spending hundreds of dollars on a hair piece, these small discounts add up and cut the overall cost.
The processing time for orders can be up to 30 days which is quite long but the shipping itself is relatively short. The company advertises 2-3 business days for most days, you just need to combine it with the processing of the hair. All deliveries come with tracking, you should receive an email within 24 hours of your order being complete.
Shipping is done via UPS and any questions about the shipping should go directly to the shipping company. One important thing to note is this company does not ship to P.O boxes, you need a physical street address to shop with the company.
What others are saying
This customer was not very happy with the purchase made with Divas wigs. The first problem was the fact that the hair took forever to get in, over a month. She also was not very content with the closure density. For all of the money spent you would expect more.
This customer found a problem with the description of the product. As a result, she lost valuable money that was not able to be refunded.
