Love the hair and 5" parting is good and the bleaching of that piece of lace was good.. the hair is full and the long. It would have benefited better with more lace at the front and ear tabs. The hair is soft and will and manageable. I have experienced no shedding. The hair looks like the picture when in its natural state. SNG have nice hair, but at times the hair wefts are thin and you'd have to buy two products or weft hair made by the company to get fuller effects if so desired. Overall great, but so much so I purchased another one!
