I had one transaction with Cysterwigs
I had one transaction with Cysterwigs. Shipping was great - timely. They handled my return properly and promptly. Customer service reached out to me to offer needed suggestions after my initial review. Heather's video spotlights were invaluable. I had however great difficulty with what looked to me to be Quality Control. There is a clear problem with misleading photos particularly of colors on the part of wholesalers. I have found the same color provided by the same retailer is slightly and factually different. My conclusion is that this is due to digital enhancement, not due to studio lighting, computer monitors or individual perception. The colors are being manipulated by the wholesaler. The second and related problem which ultimately resulted in my return was a significant difference between the color I received and the color I expected based on the photos and on Heather's video spotlight. I finally concluded this was a Quality Control problem. The label and packaging had to be wrong and an accidental human error somewhere in the supply chain. That is the only reasonable explanation. I am not ready to believe that the entire wig industry is based on misrepresentation. There is however room for lots of improvement. I referred the matter to customer service and I hope they will follow-up. In the meantime I have moved on and ordered from a different company and a different brand. It remains to be seen if this will work well for me.

Linda, I hate to say it, but while you wrote "I am not ready to believe that the entire wig industry is based on misrepresentation" it is in fact the case that: 1- manufacturers intentionally take product images under deceptive lighting 2- manufacturers Photoshop product images to make the pictures more appealing 3- manufacturers, without notice to anyone, change both the makeup of the hair they sell and the dyes they use on said hair. Happy hair shopping!
