Ashley with Poly-lined Mono Top is a nice piece with realistic hair density. Perfect for comfortabley wearing down or in a low ponytail. I did not keep it in the pretty 12/30 light chocolate that looks like natural light brown hair with warmth (some reddish/auburn hue of about 10%-15% or so) since I don't know how to style the bangs along the poly lining. Some say to steam, but weekly steaming will wear out the hair quicker. I chose Soho Chick with lace front and plan to trim in angled bangs if I decide I need it. I just got used to wearing bangs 6 mos ago since it became tiring trying to find a wig style and construction that directed long, heavy hair from falling in one's face. I found the answer with SOHO, I think. It is constructed so the heavy hair easily falls to the sides. I plan to thin it out and trim 2 inches or so. So I decided to keep SoHo Chick by Louis Ferre in 12/30 light chocolate and send back Ashley by L.F. in 12/30. Both are lovely pieces, but I'm familiar with lacefronts.

Ashley has nice, realistic hair fiber as most Louis Ferre. I don't like the monotop with the poly lining since I don't know how to work with them making the bang look realistic. It just forced the thick bang over your forehead. The density is very nice with the razor cutting style. I ordered color "T27/6 MARBLE BROWN | Dark Brown Blended with Light Brown, Blonde, Red Tones, Brown, Blonde, Red Tip." It is more light/med brown with medium/light gold blonde tips. Too light for me. You never know what you are going to get when you venture away from basic colors with Louis Ferre. But they do have my favorite hair fiber, lace fronts and no velvet ear tabs and nape which is great. Still searching for one to keep and it is the color that is challenging even with customer service help. But they always try to be helpful and are very nice to work with.
