I am selling this item because I no longer have the opportunity to use it. I used a product from Assist, but the color wasn't what I was looking for, so I dyed it with oolong tea. Because of this, a slight odor remains. Also, since I've used it several times, the styling is somewhat undone. I will ship it gently compressed. The back hair is set with hairspray, so even if it's compressed during shipping, I think you can restore it to its original shape to some extent upon arrival. Please refrain from purchasing if you are looking for a new, perfect item.
