A bit too long and doesn't seem to be holding up well [SEP] My son loves it but it is not holding up well to regular wear. It looks frazzled and rather ugly after a month of occasional use. On the plus side the ribbons are surprisingly strong, I thought for sure they'd rip out of the tail but they haven't. He ties it around his waist through his belt loops and it stays pretty well. The ears are no good for boys, they are hair clips that slide in and then flop right over from the their own weight. Might work better in a girls hair if hair sprayed though? Over all if it's just a once in a while dress up it's a nice tail but for kids regular use it's a bit too long and doesn't seem to hold up well.
