Realistic hairline. Hair shaft is thin and wispy like real hair (unlike so many wigs where the strands are thick and doll hair-like which looks unrealistic). The color is very realistic. I didn't like that whoever styled it at the factory was very careless. It looks like they took a big brush and made it curl up and out, like a 60s That Girl hairstyle. I used my wig steamer to relax the curl and it looks better, but I still need to trim some ends that turn up. Also, it will look a lot better after I trim about an inch from all the hair in back at the neck that comes from the top of the head. The way it lays currently looks like a bad haircut. Then, after thinning it out a little on top (a little too much hair makes it look unnatural), adding some scalp colored tape to the part, and some styling paste to make it look slightly messy, this will look pretty good. Overall, a better men's wig than any others I've tried.
