Tatum will always be my default, go-to, no stress wig. I own her in a variety of colors. She is almost always ready to go right out of the box. (If anything, the bangs might need a bit of tweaking, and some units needs a touch of thinning on the sides to look more natural.)
No one is ever going to suspect this is a wig. It's a natural look and density. You can wear it as-is, or in a half or full (but low, because it's not very long) updo. You can use some dry shampoo or a heat brush to fluff her up, if you like. The length is quite manageable. Just run your fingers through it a few times a day. One caveat, however..... The length is whatever the opposite of a sweet-spot is. LOL It's not long enough that the weight of it guarantees it will always lay down flatly. It's not short enough that you don't have to worry about how brushing against the nape of your neck will affect it. But because it's synthetic hair and not real, it isn't quite as soft and pliable. So sometimes it doesn't lay flush against your body. When I have been moving around a lot, I just touch it to make sure it's lying flat.
It washes and wears well. I don't really even need to use silicon spray to keep it tamed. Wigs usually have a limited lifespan but I still wear the very first Tatum I bought back in 2018 and it looks and wears the same. I have an average but leaning large head, and Tatum fits fine after a few wears. The ear tabs come close to my own.
I don't mind wearing this wig outside all day in the heat and humidity of summer. In the winter, like all synthetics, it can be staticky (but this one, not overly so) and so I just bring a tiny little spray bottle of water and spritz it from time to time.
My only dislike is how Aderans does the highlighted colors on the double mono tops. Tatum in some shades has randomly placed striped highlights of varying width, and it's just not nice looking. No one would go to a decent salon and get highlights done this way. I opt for the more blended colors (like marble brown, ginger brown, dark chocolate) but I wish I had fuller options. And I wish Tatum came in shaded rooting.
My budget is limited so I buy Tatum on sale.
I've seen Tatum on a variety of people online, and it looks great on everyone! I highly recommend this wig!
Solid wig, workhorse, good for daily use
