Bristol Novelty BW660 Wizard Wig and Long Beard, White, One Size

Excellent value and quality. Bought this as part of fancy dress outfit as dumbledore from Harry Potter but worked equally well as Father Christmas! Would recommend.

Ordered for a Harry Potter fancy dress, looked more like Gandalf, but at least i'd made the effort! The quality isn't the best, but what do you expect for the price. The mouth hole isn't really big enough, but no major complaints. Can double up as a Father Christmas beard in December to make a bit of money on the side, it'll have paid for itself in no time!

This beard is fantastic. Great for any aspiring wizard. The hair itself is soft (feels very much like real hair!) and does not itch. The only problem is with the length - I would recommend using ties to keep it out of your eyes and mouth. If you have a friend who knows how to braid - do it! It looks really wizardly and will keep the hair out of your eyes. One lat thing... if you are going to be drinking, bring some straws...

These will serve their purpose (World Book Day) - as other reviewers have mentioned, it doesn't look as wonderful as the photo, the wig in particular is difficult to put on and the hair is not thick enough to conceal the mesh cap it's attached to. They look ok on my daughter as a dressing up costume though and weren't very expensive. However, I do have one or two negative points to make: firstly, we could have done with some instructions as the wig has a couple of elastic pieces with clips attached, and a couple of loops which they might be supposed to go into, but we can't work out how they go together. I assume they're intended to make the wig secure to the head but we may just have to use normal hair clips. Secondly I don't think the wig is brand new - there are small marks around the edge of the mesh cap which look like make-up so I believe the item has been worn and returned. However, for dressing up (and a relatively low price) we've decided it's worth keeping, in a similar way to wearing a previously-worn stage costume - I'd have been more bothered about the beard but that is unmarked. It does seem that this supplier is not the most rigorous in checking returns, though, so bear in mind when you purchase.

This super high quality beard! I wear when i party giving it big licks in the big town ;) all the girls no idea that it not real beard... i look so the man and i get all the phone number :) i super happy with beard please make same for my nose becoz it not look good atm :( thanks

I need a simple costume for a granddaughter's seventh birthday party, and it must be for a Harry Potter themed event. I'm cast as Dumbledore: this wig and beard are just the job. Only one thing stops it being five star: it is rather unpleasant to wear. Wisps of whiskers get in the mouth and nose; it is hot; the beard tends to slip just a bit. Otherwise: just the job. Delivered on time, in good order, fair price.

Brilliant wig and beard! They are separates therefore you get the best of both. I put a set of battery fairy lights under the beard and this had a superb effect! Really pleased with this product and it is now in my 'dressing up' box for when it may be needed again at a party.

This was bought for my son's world book day dress up, and I have to say I'm rather disappointed. I've had cheap wigs before but this one is ridiculous. No matter what I do to it you can see the mesh on the back. And the beard....my god, the beard. First of all, the elastic is an inch lower on one side than the other, so half of the beard folds over. Secondly, if you try to tame it, so that it actually has a gap for the mouth, you might as well just stick the entire thing on as a moustache....there's minimal hair, and a he'll of a lot of mesh. A waste of money in my opinion. If I'd had time, I could have done a better job myself. Don't get me wrong, for the price I wasn't expecting something super deluxe, but i wasn't expecting something as tatty as this.
