Rip off
November 23, 2017

Don't even consider buying a wig from these people! I ordered a human hair wig
Which took forever to receive and thought I wasn't going to get it. Had to file a dispute claim to try to get my money back. They finally sent me the wig. It wasn't human hair, smelled of chemicals, wrong color, Not what was advertised. Trying to ship it back to china and trying to get reimbursed was more than I could deal with. So I ate it. The least I can do is warn others. One star is too many!

I am going to complain to the Minister for Trade and Foreign Affairs: Telephone: 13 28 78. It they are not the right people, I am sure that they can provide the right advice. I encourage you to do the same. Lets shut down this dodgy website. I encourage you all to add another bad review on this site here: https://www.productreview.com.au/p/howigsau.html

The wig I received did not look anything like the wig I ordered.
They told me to get it cut. I wanted to return it for a different one.
No luck.

Bad Hair Day
October 6, 2017

I wished I had read your review before I spent £57. It was a CRAP wig, the photo on line bore no resemblance to the nightmare and all I got was excuses. I was offered compensation in the reverse £30, £20, £10. How crazy is that.
I made the mistake of returning the wig to a Middlesex address that was on the box that said Return to: when it should have been returned to China. It was signed for in Middlesex. Biggest SCAM ever. Note the number of stars supposedly wearing Ho Wigs!. Do you think they are really Ho Wigs?
I will try to cut and paste the one I ordered and the one I received.
A nightmare. Rating is 0 stars

Worst company ever
October 1, 2017

Don't do business with this company. After receiving a wig that could only be used at a costume party i have tried unsuccessfully to return this thing for over 6 weeks. After over 20 emails I have now filed a complaint thru PayPal and hope to receive a refund. Of course, it would be nice to have an address to return this thing but evidently that is not something any customer can find. Probably because there would be a mountain of returned packages and create a fire hazard. I am a cancer patient and really resent this company and it's deplorable lack of customer service.

Scam website
September 25, 2017

This is a scam website. The wigs are coming from China, even if you order from co.uk site. When they arrive, you have to pay extra money because of clearance taxes. They did not tell me anything about extra taxes... My order did not arrived at all and they wanted to refund me just 20%, than 30% and now 40% only. I lost a lot of time talking on email with a totally unprofessional customer care. Today I raised a dispute on PayPal and hopefully I will get my money back.

SCAM COMPANY, DON'T BUY! I'd give it negative 5 stars if I could. The reviews on their website must be fake because I don't know how people could be fooled into thinking they're getting Remy hair. I paid $160 and was excited to get my wig but realized quickly it wasn't human hair. Additionally, the construction was horrible as they used white threading for the cap which shows through quite obviously. I'm sad to say that by reading the reviews here I have a feeling I won't be getting my money back either.

Really bad stuff.
September 14, 2017

Don't order from this company. I sent them a message and they want pictures of the wig. Their site says there is not a public key and I can't send the pictures. The wig was supposed to be human hair but it's synthetic and looks terrible.

Poorly
August 23, 2017

Please don't order from them. I paid $160.00 for a poorly made wig. It was not capless or lace as it was suppose to be. Really I could have made a better wig myself. Working on getting my money back now.

What a joke.
August 22, 2017

I ordered from them because it said somewhere they are made in USA. Next thing i know its being shipped from DUBAI. Well the color was way wrong, i ordered a blonde, like platinum blonde and i got like a brownish blonde. And i ordered a human hair... its definitley not. Ive been wearing wigs for almost 10 years and i can tell the difference. What a waste of money. $130 for a synthetic wig. I can get a nice synthetic one for less then half the price.

Wrong colour... Should have been Wavy Brown, arrived straight and blonde.
Awful hair. Remy? Really.
Pic. Was a lovely tapered short cut. The one arrived, is not tapered and hair coming out.
I have received so many e mails back from mine, re excuses for not giving me my refund.
SO disappointed and angry.
Hope Pay Pal will help.

FRAUDULENT CHEATS!
August 7, 2017

Hi everyone I award HoWigs NIL STARS and this is an update since my last review 8/8/2017. I am in the process of my 10th email to this company for a returns address and to no avail, all they have done is delay the process and offer me a £10 refund then today a £15 refund, and the best part is they are so sorry for my inconvenience? What a joke, actually this is not funny as I have limited funds and can't afford to let this go. I have not been outside my house for 2 months because I am not the person I used to be as in a full head of hair and when I ordered my wig I actually believed that my order would be a saviour, not at all, in fact quite the opposite. This company is targeting vulnerable customers and this has to stop, no empathy, no professionalism, no ethics whatsoever, I am totally stressed out which is not good for my health, but I will not be taken for a fool. I will update if I have any further news. Thank you for your time. X

Disgusting
August 4, 2017

WARNING
Please Share This
This is a warning for all of you wanting to buy a hair pieces or wigs in real human hair. These guys are selling fake hair wigs as real human hair, dont get sucked in like I did. I paid $515.00 for this crap see pictures below.
The pictures show you what i ordered and what i revived
There website: www.howigsau.com please stay away!
The wigs have no shape or style to them and when you put the hot Ions on the wigs they melt and go frizzy real hair does NOT do that. It's disgusting to think they are getting away with it
Please help me stop them by social media and SHARE

The wig was poor in every aspect. They refuse to reimburse me for returning. I spent 32$ to return and it was sent back to me after 2 months. Address does not exist and company quite the scammers. I am out 132$ and feel victimized and abused by this company. Please do not purchase from them. Don't go through what I did.

I bought wig from Howig looking at the product reviews first which got 5 stars. Took forever to receive the item. And the wig is nothing like the one in the picture. It's weird wig, seems like it's backwards. Cant wear it at all. Absolutely waste of money. I wrote bad review but of course they didn't put what I wrote. Only 5 stars reviews allowed to be posted. Grrrr... I hate this shop!

I ordered and paid $278 Australia dollars, I received the most hideous orange curly wig. It was supposed to be ash blonde. Becky will not refund me, even though their website policy says they. She's ignoring my emails as I've asked countless times for a return address and my money back.
This place is a horrible sky con.
DO NOT GO NEAR THIS JOINT.
