Here's a tip most people don't know: it's not about the wig itself, it's about the finishes (babyhair, lace, thinning, cap fitting, etc). I've seen people with 10k+ wigs that look horrible because they don't it and look natural, and I've seen people with 2k wigs that look absolutely gorgeous because they invested in having someone "finish" it properly.
Another tip: don't believe social media -- most of what is shown isn't reality.

I would say on instagram 'blumawigs' looks amazing, no personal experience.

Why not? I was actually thinking of going to her. Please let me know because I don’t want to waste any money.

I've seen several wigs that were extremely messed up -- lacking basic proper techniques on the lace.

I have to agree with this. Cap fitting is super important

I know nothing about this brand. But I’ve been told never to trust Instagram images.
Often they are heavily edited and touched up.
The wigs are styled to last the photo and not real life.
I’m not referring to this brand. Just any Sheitel or make up artist on Instagram. Many courses today even teach photo editing as part of their course.
Speak to ppl in real life who have owned a few months.

People are very happy with feather by Hanna. Her Instagram photos are very raw

I'm a sheitelmacher and agree. You don't even need to reach as far as photos being edited. Any photo of a wig instantly looks more natural than when you look at it with the naked eye. It's reality. Especially when it comes to lace.
So don't trust anything you didn't see in real life standing 2 feet away.

So I bought a wig from China..it was not great looking when I bought it but I put a tremendous amount of work into the front and thinning it. Complete strangers stop me in the street to rudely (' ')ask me if I'm wearing a wig(PS I love it!)..mind you its frizzy and curly so its hard to tell bc its not perfectly set!

Personally I love my Bluma wig!
It’s my best wig and I’m hoping to get another down the line.
But I also think it’s important not to choose a wig seller based on instagram photos as a general thought
