I bought hair 26inch so called Peruvian hair on the 1st April 2026 for R4200 on special from R5200, its the 13 today the hair is ALREADY shedding, its TANGLING badly and getting stiff. I normally buy this quality hair on Shein for HALF the price and I know it would last me 6 moth to a year. I decided to support LOCAL business hoping that the price would be better quality than Shein and was I wrong, just 13 days in, havent washed the hair and its already a MESS

I bought hair through PJN and hair city on the 30th March, no feedback on when i will receive my order, the non-communication is horrible. . I have emailed them several times still no sign of any delivery. This is bad impression on a first time buyer, their website say delivery is 2-3 days and i am still waiting and no communication what of ever.

Hello Pieter, I hope you are well. I would like to raise a concern regarding a closure HD hair piece I purchased from Haircity Menlyn on 22 March 2026. After only one week of use, the closure tore on one side, which is very disappointing given the expected quality. I returned to the store today; however, the manager refused to exchange the item and instead suggested that it be sewn in-store. I do not feel this is a reasonable solution for a product that is still so new and should not have been damaged under normal use. Furthermore, the manager was rude and arrogant and indicated that I am welcome to take the matter further. I would greatly appreciate your assistance in resolving this matter, preferably through an exchange or a suitable alternative. Kind regards, Charmaine

Itβs my first time writing a review, but wowβ¦ I am so impressed! πβ¨ Haircity, and especially Cindy, really came through for me during a very stressful situation π π.

Not only did my order arrive right on time β°, but the courier guy was amazing too β he even sang to us πΆπ! And the hair? Absolutely on point πββοΈπ. I love the texture, the quality β everything about it ππ. The whole experience was just incredible πβ¨. Thank you so much, Haircity! π

I bought 2 wigs from Haircity one double drawn wig, which has completely shredded leaving a bald spot on the closure, this is very disappointing and disgusting because these wigs were bought with my hard earned money and not stones. The curly 18inch one is so still and looks as if you bought it ka R350 from dragon city, it's stiff as nails giving off a completely **** look. I am so disappointed. No more!
