FANTASTIC! Used a beige blonde 20" halo as my DIY beach wedding hair! Comfortable, easy to style, and held up well in the Caribbean heat. I have 0 experience with extensions and it blended perfectly using a traditional curling wand. After watching tutorials I **carefully** washed it with purple shampoo to better match my ashy blonde, and it was perfect!! The Halo would not work well for ponytails but is perfect for hair down, halfway up, or a very low pony. If you have super thin hair, the clip-ins may be easier to blend than the halo due to the weight of the hair. It's THICK (and beautiful!).
