I don’t usually go for mainstream characters but I really like My Hero Academia and I think Ochaco is just a great character to cosplay. This time I am doing an Ochako Uraraka wig review for Uniqso, it is very comfy to get wigs that are already styled for your character. And this was indeed a great idea and time saver.
Shipping and packaging
My wig arrived from China by courier. They are actually very quick and they kept me updated sending me messages about the time the wig would be arriving. It was tracked and signed and I always knew where the wig was.
The wig was actually very well protected. It is the first time I get a wig inside a box as well as the usual net and paper inside. It also came with a wig net which is always a plus as I keep losing them.
About the wig
This wig has a lovely brown colour with red tones. It looks really natural and it comes with a bob cut with longer sides. For the first time in my many costumes I didn’t need to cut the fringe of the wig to make it look good. It is possible to make it a bit shorter but it is very wearable as it is.
After a long time storage it is normal to get the shape of the wig twisted. Nothing that can’t be quickly fixed with a quick blow of hot air. Otherwise the wig was perfect. It is also very soft and easy to detangle.
The quality of the wig itself is amazing. The net is very thick and durable. The fringe wefts are sewn to the edge of the net which makes it look very natural and avoids the “bald patches” effect you get in cheap wigs. The top of the wig is set with heat to dsguise the end of the net. I was weary of this part as I have other cheaper wigs that looked terrible and messy. This one actually works very well.

Wig for cosplay
To be expected, I will be using this wig for my Ochaco Cosplay. She actually has different outfits that I want to make. It makes a great match in combination with my Sweety Shining brown contacts which I have already reviewed. Furthermore, I think this wig would also be a good base for characters like Yui Hirasawa or even Sakura with a bit of styling.
Final Rating
I think the quality of this wig is remarkable. It totally makes it easy to cosplay Ochaco and will save you a lot of time styling and cutting a wig from stratch. Very little styling to do and great quality, can’t ask for more. The effect is amazing and I couldn’t be happier with it.
