I read an article recently in the mishpacha magazine about buying a sheital for cheaper on Ali Express.
Anyone else out there who really did and what was your experience with it?

I did after reading the mishpacha article. I spent $340 and so far in very happy.
I did phone my credit company first to find put that I would be covered incase it wasn't what I wanted etc. they were very reassuring and I had 6 monthe to file a complaint if I wasn't happy. I would only order ONE. some people ordered 3 or 4 and were not happy.
I would also keep it simple.
good luck

Off topic, but what credit card company gives you 6 months to file a complaint and get a refund? I thought you only have 2 months, or sometimes a max of 3.

I was very specific
asked him to send photos.

This was NOT from aliexpress, but an Asaian company.
I wanted a headband Sheitel to wear in the summer while in Israel.
I'm color 4.
When it came it didn't have a headband and its blonde.
The quality seemed nice enough but I can't wear it.
I paid $180
I tried contacting the company, phone disconnected
They never answered my emails.
I filed a claim with AE. I wasn't charged
Anyone need a blonde fall? I want to give it to someone who really needs.
I think it might be a color 8 or 10.
PM me if you are interested.
Still looking for a HH color 4 (dark brown) headband Sheitel.
A little longer than shoulder length. (If it hits my bra strap, it's too long)
Don't want to pay more than $200.

I would like to re-open this discussion. Has anyone else bought sheitals from Ali Express lately? I am weary about believing all of the rave reviews on the website. But at the same time, I'm interested in the low cost and supposed high quality.

I bought a hat fall from Jack, the site mentioned in Mishpacha.
I had it professionally washed and set and cut.
For 3 months it looked fine. I wore it a few hours a week, mostly I work from home.
After 3 months the hair looked rougher and more course. Now it's at that point where it looks good for those first 2 days after it's been washed and set, and looks somewhat horrid after that.
$350 for 3 months. That would be $1,400 a year or $2,800 for 2 years.
My $2,700 Shevy that's 8 years old is just starting to die now. So, while it's much easier to cough up $350 here and there than to spend $2K every 5-10 years, I'm finished with trying to buy cheap Sheitels.
I bought 2 Sheitels on sale about 6 years ago, one was $950 and one was $1,200. Both got to that stage where they looked awful except for the 2 days after being freshly washed and blown, in less than a year.
It's insane to spend more than my mortgage on a wig; however, I've personally found that the cheap wigs are a waste of money. I wish this were not the case!

I have a fall from Ali and I am very happy with it. Half my family has it and it is great. I have for about 9 months now. I wash it myself and it dries naturally.

I bought a shaitel with them and have been happy with it. It's not magnificent, but it is great for everyday.

My biggest complaint with AliExpress wig sellers, is that they don't do auburns! I'm a 30/33, and they just don't exist. It must be a very hard color to do on Asian hair.

I bought a Wig from Ali. Not from the company mentioned in the article but a different company that I read a lot of women were happy with. I was looking for a medium length naturally curly wig that I could wash myself and air dry. I am kind of an easy customer as my head is on the small side and my color is uncomplicated and dark. I absolutely LOVE the wig I bought and it was a little more than $200! Totally worth it. It washes and air dries like I wanted and certainly doesn't feel like other wigs that I have that are Chinese hair since it is super soft and sleek, not at all coarse. I bought a famous name brand wig about a year ago for a simcha and it is the knottiest wig I have ever owned and doesn't really hold a curl. I wish I had been less afraid at the time to order from China! With most of these companies you order a # lighter in color and a size larger for the cap. Many people get custom color blends they are happy with. There are also women who are making a small percentage on helping you buy a wig from China and if you are not happy with the purchase you are not obligated to buy since they can pretty easily find a different buyer most of the time.
Don't be afraid! Go for it!
