HEAD
The following questions ask you to explain how satisfied you are with each feature of the head of the costume. If you are reviewing only a set of ears, your answers would also go in this section.

---

Wear Satisfaction
Please describe how it is to wear this piece of your costume.
The head is great to wear. Fits my glasses inside and not too tight. Has a small fan built in and a custom inner lining that looks cute and doesn’t show when worn. The inner lining makes it more comfortable to wear and absorbs the sweat. With the fan off the head can be a bit stuffy but the air circulated well when it’s on. Vision is good in suit and no issues with fogging.

Appearance Satisfaction
Please describe how satisfied you are with how your costume piece looks from the outside.
The symmetry and match to character design is wonderful. I was very pleased with the appearance of the suit. Shaving appears even. The fur is soft and smooth and lays nicely when brushed. The markings are all hand sewn so there is no risk of bleeding like there would be if they were airbrushed on. The follow-me eyes look great in photos and with the moving jaw as well I’m able to get some nice varied expressions in pictures.

Special Attachments and Features
Please describe how satisfied you are with any extra features your head has.
Moving jaw - works decently well. My other suit did not have a moving jaw so it has taken some getting used to. I have to exaggerate my speech quite a bit to get movement to show.
Detachable plush antlers - this was a request I made in order to accommodate easy storage and transportation of my suit. The maker achieved this by using industrial magnets, and during wear time I have only had one of the antlers detach once while dancing. I required help to reattach it simply because I had no way of seeing my head to find the magnetized spot.

HANDS AND FEET
The following questions ask you to explain how satisfied you are with each feature of the hands and feet of the costume.

---

Wear Satisfaction
Please describe how it is to wear these pieces of your costume.
I got plush cloven hand hooves and they are very comfortable to wear. I am able to pick things up while wearing them and have good range of motion with them. They fit well and have an inner fleece lining that absorbs the sweat.

Appearance Satisfaction
Please describe how satisfied you are with how your costume pieces look from the outside.
The hand-hooves appear symmetrical with even shaving. Fur is smooth and soft and lays flat when brushed.

---

TAILS
The following questions ask you to explain how satisfied you are with each feature of the tail(s) of the costume.

---

Wear Satisfaction
Please describe how it is to wear these pieces of your costume.
Tail has elastic straps at the base that are hidden when worn and fit many different widths of belts. Very well sewn and easy to put on and take off.

Appearance Satisfaction
Please describe how satisfied you are with how your costume pieces look from the outside.
The tail appears symmetrical, great base as the elastic straps do not show when worn, fur is smooth and soft and lays flat when brushed. Markings are all hand sewn so no risk of bleeding that airbrushing would have.
