    Hairmail.co.uk anyone used them before?

    i would send them an email and ask them to email you images of the system they are selling that you want to buy. They obvs could still scam you , but its just another precaution to try i guess. :)

    Lord hair quality control on french lace units

    that hairline looks terrible.. are the knots bleached ? ... this is the problem with dark hair systems unless the hairline is bleached you can see the knots TOO quickly. thankfully i now wear a blonde system so i dont have this issue with bleached knots. but that does look bad tbh
