Lolita Dresses Shop Review I| Firestar & Co.

Hey guys! Welcome to my Lolita Dresses Shop I Review! I will be reviewing the Lolita Cotton Chinese Style Landscape Print Fold Tassel Flounced Stand Collar Long Sleeve Dress from Lolita Dresses Shop, along with the Black and Pink Cotton Short Sweet Lolita Skirt With Black Tulle Lace Trim Hemline (because they were in the same package). Let's go!

This is when I first got into Lolita style fashion. This dress and skirt that I am reviewing are my first ever Lolita pieces. When I explained the fashion to my mom, she mistook the name for the book Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov which is a very inappropriate book. I had some convincing to do. When I finally convinced her, I linked her to this website and she put a list together of possible things to buy. I got a few pieces in this package. This was also our first experience with buying from China, and their sizes run small, so some of the clothes in the first package were small on me because I ordered a small, which is my usual U.S. size, but in our next order, we tried medium, which is the size i always use when buying any clothes from China or Japan. Anyways, I was very happy with my package and I continue to order from them to this day. 

Note: This review is very picture-heavy.

First things first: The dress

Website Description: 

Color: Black And Pink
Fabric: Cotton
Hemline: Short
Embellishment: Lace Trim
Style types: Sweet Lolita
Season: Spring,Summer,Autumn,Winter

Notice: Colour and style may vary by monitor.

Here is what the skirt looks like on me. The skirt was a bit tight because I ordered the wrong size, but it's still wearable. 

Quality: 4/5

The quality was good to begin with, but after a few wears, some of the decorations fell off. I still wear the dress, but with less decorations. Other than that, the dress stayed in one piece. The skirt was fine, but it was tight, which is my fault for not knowing better. The bloomers that I got were also tight, but that is still my fault.

Shipping: 5/5

I am very lenient with shipping, considering the website is located in China, and it took a few weeks to a month to get to me. I don't remember exact dates because it was very long ago. I didn't pay for expedited shipping. 

Communication: 5/5

I don't remember much, but I remember contacting them for something and they got back to me in a timely manner. Their English was very good, aside from a few grammatical and spelling errors, but that is to be expected coming from people who's first language is not English, but Chinese. The two languages are very different. From alphabet to sentence structure, they are just total opposites of each other. They got back to me in about a day to two days. 

Overall: 4/5

Everything was good about this company, I had no troubles, but the fact that the tassels fell off the dress after just a few wears brought the score down. I also bought a few pairs of bloomers with these, but I can't wear them because they are too tight and are uncomfortable. Again, my fault for not knowing better. I would buy from them again (and already have as you will find out in a few reviews), and recommend that you buy from them as well. They are good for people on a budget. Note: If you decide on buying something from them (and any clothing item from China or Japan or anywhere in Asia) get a (ONE) size larger than your US size. You won't have any problems if you do that.

That's it! I hope you enjoyed my first multi-piece review! Go check out Lolita Dresses Shop at http://www.lolitadressesshop.com. More Lolita Dresses Shop reviews to come. I buy many things from them.

ABHair Review| Firestar & Co.

Hey guys! Welcome to my ABHair review! I will be reviewing the Ice Blue Curly Lolita Wig from the website. Let's get started!

A friend got this for me for my birthday and I wasn't too skeptical because the website is located in California, so i wasn't too concerned. I still read reviews though, and they all said it was good. Note, I asked for a sponsorship from them but they never got back to me, so I assumed they refused. But that doesn't matter too much. Anyways, I was happy with what I got, and that is all that matters.

This is their stock photo. Cost: $35.99

Note:    Processing Time 2-4 Business Days.

Real Color May Slightly Different From Pictures Due to Many Factors Such As Computer Screen's Resolution, Brightness, Contrast Etc.

This is what the wig looks like on me. I don't have a picture of the back because it didn't look good in the back.

Quality: 4/5

The wig itself is good quality, the fibers are soft, the curls stay in place, but the back didn't look good on me. It is a bit overpriced, but not insanely overpriced. 

Shipping: 5/5

I obviously didn't deal with shipping, but it came pretty fast. It was in my gift bag on my birthday. I don't know if my friend payed for expedited shipping, or if it came fast because I am located in the US. I don't think she payed for expedited shipping, at least I told her not to, but she might've. 

Communication: 1/5

I emailed them about possibly sponsoring me a wig to review, and they didn't reply back to me. I assumed it's because they refused, but even if they said no, I would've liked to know. If I could give them suggestions, it would be better communication. I understand if they don't want to sponsor me something, but at least tell me, don't leave me in the dark. They really have no excuse because they are located in California. 

Overall: 3/5

The wig quality was great, but it was a bit overpriced, and the back of the wig didn't look that great in me. It came pretty fast, but what brings the rating down is communication. They NEVER replied back!!!! I would buy from them again, but if you are getting a wig, don't expect to contact them and get a reply. 

Well, that's it! Hope you enjoyed! Apologies for my rant about the communication, but this is a review, and communication experience is important in a review. Since this is a review, I leave my honest feelings, and maybe I'm really angry about something the company did wrong, and I will say it. This goes for all of my reviews. Well, despite all that, still drop them a visit at  http://www.abhair.com.

Uniqso Wig Review| Firestar & Co.

Hey guys! Welcome to my Uniqso Wig Review! This is my second review. I already went over the basics in the Welcome and my first review page, so check those out for policies. Anyways, let's jump right into it!

So, my friend got me the Yowamushi Pedal - Makishima Yusuke Cosplay Wig from Uniqso for my birthday. When I first came across this website, I was skeptical because the stock photos weren't the highest quality ever, and it just seemed strange all together, so I read reviews on it and I decided to take a chance and I'm happy I did. 

This is the stock photo. It costed $27.90.

 Here are the photos of the wig on me. Again, the wig is right out of the bag, so I didn't trim or anything.

Quality: 5/5

The quality is very good. The fibers are soft. Hair doesn't fall out.

Shipping: 4/5

No problems customs wise, but the package took 3 weeks to get to my friend! That seemed a bit long, but maybe that's the usual for a wig from Malaysia. Note that she didn't pay for expedited shipping. It came in a plastic bag with a free wig cap. 

Communication: N/A

My friend would've handled the communication, and she didn't need to contact them, so I can't say anything about it. 

Overall: 5/5

The quality of the wig is good, and everything else was good, aside from it taking 3 weeks to get to my friend! My advice to you: If you need a wig, and are planning on ordering from Uniqso, order it way in advance, or pay for expedited shipping and keep in contact with them. 

Well, that about raps it up! I hope you enjoyed the review. This is my second review by the way, so I am still trying to figure things out. Don't forget to pay Uniqso a visit at http://www.uniqso.com. Note that they also sell contacts, but I don't wear contacts, so don't be expecting a contact review any time soon.

L-Email Wigs/Wig-supplier Review| Firestar & Co.

Hi guys! Welcome to my first review! I've been wanting to do reviews for a while, but just never got around to them. I am a very busy person, so I won't be coming out with reviews twice every day, but expect a review at least once a week. So, anyways, as aforementioned, this is my first review, so forgive me if I miss important points. Tips and pointers are welcomed. Anyhow, let's get started.

Below is their logo!

First, a friend of mine ordered the 60cm Long Blue & Black Lolita Clip on Ponytails Wavy Wig for me for Christmas last year from L-email wigs/Wig-supplier. When I first came across this website, I was pretty skeptical about it because of the low prices, but I read other reviews on the site, and all of them were good, so I decided to give it a try. I am very pleased that I did. 

This is the wig as pictured on their site.

Exact link: http://www.wig-supplier.com/60cm-long-blueblack-lolita-clip-on-ponytails-wavy-cos-wig-c22c-p-2315.html

Exact description on their site: 

Product Description

• LENGTH :65cm/25.59inch
• Color:blue&black
• EST. SHIPPING WT. : 690g
• Material : Synthetic High Temp Fiber

It is recommended to fluff and run fingers through wig to get out loose fibers before wearing. Teasing it can create a cute fluffy style. Bangs may need to be trimmed to suit your own face.. Wig net has two elastic belts built in to shorten the circumference if necessary.

Fibers are heat resistant, but we don't recommend heat styling unless you have previous experience or professional help. Temperature range is 250-300°F (120-150°C) for hot irons, 160-175°F (70-80°C) for hot water.

Please be aware that colors might look slightly different in person due to camera quality and monitor settings. Stock photos are taken in natural light with no flash.

 *Please be aware that the short curled styles are kind of thin in the back due to the short curls. They definitely need to be fluffed before wearing, especially for lighter colors. The tracks risk showing through if not fluffed up enough~♥*

These are the pictures of the wig on me. I apologize for being in a robe, and I apologize for the annoying lighting. Also, these pictures are the wig right out of the package, so I didn't fluff it or anything like that.
Quality: 5/5The quality is fine. The fibers are soft, not insanely soft, but soft. The wig wasn't itchy or anything, and it comes with two separate clip on pigtails. Also, the wig costs $18.32, so the quality is really good for the price. 
Shipping: N/AMy friend dealt with the shipping, so I don't really know how long it took. I also don't know whether she paid for expedited or not, so I can't say anything, but I am assuming she didn't. I got it within a week or so, and this place is located in mainland China. 
Communication: N/AI can't say anything because I know for a fact that I didn't have to communicate with them, and my friend didn't either.
Overall: 5/5The quality is good, the price is affordable, especially for a person on a budget, and they have a major variety of wigs, accessories, and even Cosplay costumes. I would definitely buy from them again and I recommend everyone go check out their website! 
Hopefully you enjoyed my review. As stated, this is my first review, so I am just trying to figure everything out. I know I missed a few important things, but if so, feel free to tell me in comments. That is about all, be sure to visit their website http://www.wig-supplier.com/?utm_source=tracking120. ~Firestar and Co.
