Hannah Montana Pop Star Wig - Halloween Costume Review
The first time I ran into this ridiculous pile of crap was in a local KBee toy store. I had no idea who Hannah Montana was, but I had my niece in tote with me. It was a day dedicated to my niece. We always share special days like this whenever time permits. This time I promised her anything. Anything she wanted in the store.
We browsed up and down isles, she first decided on a cute baby doll all dressed in pink. However when we were just about to leave I watched her pick up off of the rack a pile of hair. It was in a bag. Upon first look I figured it was some sort of fuzzy hairy stuffed animal. A cousin IT toy or something odd like that.
"Hannah Montana!" She yelped.
Okay, what the hell is Hannah Montana. I picked the bag up from her tiny hand and looked down at her bulging eyes. I swear I saw a twinkle in them. Anyhow, it turned out my niece wanted Hannah Montana's hair.
The whole concept irked me. I told her Halloween was in just another month, and that we could get the wig then. Why would KBee be selling wigs so early?
The story:
So it turns out this girl Heidi becomes Hannah Montana a pop star when she wears a wig.
Okay, sounds lame... but now at least I knew why the wig was being sold now.
They weren't gearing this idiotic hair piece to girls around Halloween, they wanted these young girls to walk around in this awful ugly wig all year round! Wow!
Not my niece, I'll be damned if she is going to walk around in school on her first day being called a freak, nerd, or geek because she comes in sporting a goddamn wig in September.
Packaging:
Hannah's hair is thrown into a bag. The bag is stapled and held shut with a cheap cardboard hanger. On this cardboard piece is I guess... Hannah Montana?
Price:
After looking into my niece's eyes I wondered how much Montana... I mean Hannah wanted for her hair.
Gah, ga,,, egad! $24.99 for a wig! You have got to be kidding me! For a wig!
Now around Halloween time I had seen the exact same wig for only $7.99 in a local Walmart down the Halloween isle. Heck, down the Halloween isle at Walmart in October you can find wigs of all lengths, sizes and colors, and none of them even brush the $20.00 price mark.
Hannah for some reason thought her locks were better than the rest of the cheap wigs on the market. Why was it better though?
Um... inspecting it I could not find a reason as to why the wig was this expensive. The fake hair was knitted into the same cheap mesh head piece as any other Halloween wig. The hair was the same shiny fake synthetic garbage as any other; yet the wig was $25.00. Hah!
I told my niece that we could get the wig for Halloween (yeah right). I'd be taking her to Walmart for a wig if she really, really wanted one.
The wig:
The Hanna Montana wig comes is a golden colored wig. I can't tell if it is golden blond or golden brown. There truly is no other way to describe the wig except by saying its gold something.
It is long and will drape to your child's back, or behind, depending on how tall or short they are. The wig has ridiculously long sweeping bangs, that cannot be styled.
Directions say that you can lightly brush the wig. However anyone who has ever owned a crappy Halloween wig knows that if you brush a wig you ruin the wig. The same will stand true for the Hannah Montana wig as well.
Directions also state you can wash this wig with warm water and soap. We all know that if you wash a wig it will never look the same again.
-You cannot however style the wig with hot irons, blow dryers, and other heat hair gadgets. The hair will melt.
Is Hannah's Hair Worth The Price:
Hell to the hizz no! It is a wig, and honest to God you can find the exact same wig without the Hannah Montana logo for half the price around Halloween time in any store that sells wigs.
Tip:
If you value your childs social reputation, do not let them wear this wig to school, unless it is Halloween.

Post a CommentSo cool reveiw, I so agree
as in the true wig
were is the true wig
Dear OP, its true, you got the name wrong. It's not Heidi its Miley. (The only reason you're getting crap in the comments is because they're Hannah Montana fans.) No less, the rest of your review is spot on. Face it: the wig is stupid. Its poorly made, and no matter the amount of care you put into it, it's going to be completely unusable/playable/whatever within the month. Secondly, to everyone leaving these comments: grow up. Wait, you're watching HM, so that suggests you're all under 10. Okay, gotcha. (I try to make it a point not to argue with children).
And also, FYI there is no heidi, and u r so stupid! Ok, for one,miley NOT stupid, and 2, it is not stupid that ur niece likes her, and that is her right. also, before you post something like this, GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT!
OK, listen... if you're gonna go on about something you think is sooo stupid, you might wanna try to get the facts right. First of all it's about a girl named MILEY- there's no Heidi in the show. And she doesn't want anyone to find out that she's a famous pop star so she has a secret identity and the only people who know that she's Hannah Montana are her friends, family, and her body guard. And she is one of the top teenage stars. So next time you wanna bash someone make sure you know all the facts.
Oops I meant to say- for those of YOU!!! So sorry!
Why does every1 talk about ME- ALL THE TIME!!! Sometimes I wish my life was like the show. But for those of me who support me and love me, thanks.
Ok you weirdo here is teh RALY story
1. Its MILEY CYRUS no heidi
And in the SHOW Hannah montana on disney channel (they let her use her real dad billy ray cyrus and her real name and age) She plays teh role of Miley Sturt instead of Cyrus and her dad is Robby Ray so on so on and she wants to go to school and be a regular girl and have people like her for her but she wants to be a superstar so she wears a long blonde wig to hide that she is really Miley Sturt and the only people that no is her familey her to best friends and her bodyguard later on she tell a famouse movie star she is dating called Jake Ryan and cause he knows the feelin of what she doesnt want to happen her keeps the secret safe.
There so now u no her REAL name the story and that she is not LAME!
Oh and F.Y.I she is one of the most famouse people in the world now and she owns a 1 million $$$ bank account!!!
So there u retard!!!!!
okay firstly its not heidi its miley and she uses the fukin wig to hide her secret from the world so she doesnt magicaly turn into hannah montana. dont u watch disney channel?..u idiot.
