Hairingrid 26"-28" Mannequin Head for Hair Styling Training - Manikin Cosmetology Doll With Synthetic Fiber Hair and Free Clamp Holder (Brown)

My 8 year old loves doing hair so we got this for her. She loves it. It was affordable and serves its purpose! Her hair does tangle pretty easy but we’ve learned to comb out certain styles and keep it sectioned and braided before putting it away. She did have quite a bit of shedding the first couple of days but that has subsided. Overall I’d give this a 8.5/10.

Definitely do not use heat on this doll. I used very low heat with heat protector product and it singed the section of hair I was working on and like I said I used the lowest heat setting

This hair is perfect for practicing braiding, cutting, coloring, or styling hair. My girls really enjoyed styling this mannequin head. The hair quality is soft and easy to work with. The hair holds curls good and can handle heat without damaging the hair. Love this mannequin doll head.. it’s worth the money!

Would not recommend. This mannequin can’t absorb hair color. Very hard to style. I thought my curling iron was initially broken. Full synthetic hair incredibly difficult to work with and do much of anything with as a student. Was able to cut the hair but can dull scissors very quickly.

Im currently in cosmetology school and this was the quickest thing I could get last minute due to us beginning in hair. I figured it would be useful for at least pin ups/roller sets but sadly the hair won’t stop getting tangled. I have to keep combing it out with every section of hair I’m dividing. It won’t even wrap around the rollers while wet and unravels soon as you get close to the scalp of the doll. Look how many pins I even tried using to simply keep the hair from falling off the roller. I wouldn’t even dare washing this thing due to the fact that it tangles SO BAD. And usually shedding wouldn’t bother me, but THIS! A nightmare. I’m feeling strands of hair all over me even after cleaning up, it’s just all over the place. The only thing I can see benefiting from this, is for the hair cutting process but I wouldn’t use this to even practice adding in hair while braiding because although many pictures are shown with braids, I’m sure it took them longer and more patience for the hair to even grip it properly for it to stay in place. It unravels very quickly. PLEASE SAVE THE HASSLE. It’s just better to spend your money on something that’s actually substantial and won’t create headaches. It can already be frustrating learning hair techniques, don’t make your brain hurt even more with this mannequin.

My daughter absolutely loves this. It did shed a little in the beginning but it is a great tool for her to learn how to do different hairstyles.
