This product has worked for me for about three years now. well worth the money for my hair lost. It arrived very fast however the contents of the product had spilled out during shipping causing a mess inside the box. I probably lost about a third of the shampoo. The lid to the bottle should be better secured to ensure this does not happen again.

The costume is fine. I detect no overpowering "chemical smell". So don't worry about that. It is a cheap Halloween costume that will survive for an additional few months for dress up play.
