HELP... ANY help with places to get full lace system

albar05 · Dec 30, 2020

Hi Guys,

I have been trying to get a colour 22R full swiss or french lace system from my usual suppliers but it seems to be a nightmare right now to get any. I managed to get one supplie from Aliexpress but they want £270 for one system in swiss lace which is insane.

I am not desperate , but i would like one more system to add to my stock i have already.

ANY IDEAS PLEASE GUYS. Also if i can not get full lace, what in your opinion would be be beat alternative.. as i have never used anything but lace, and i have no idea what to do as an alternative.

1. £270 for a high-quality system is not insane, if it's high-quality... although I would question what factory is selling on Aliexpress?

2. Basically none of the factories are making full-lace systems now, especially premade, maybe for custom orders.

3. You may need to consider a skin with a lace front.

We are in a global pandemic... people need to realize that it's not "business as usual"...!!! Hair systems are not on any Trade Minister's top ten of things we need to get fixed now. Be thankful that there is anything available, and that the prices are not much much higher than they are.

Many vendors have stopped altogether, or some are moving heaven and earth to get systems for repeat/loyal clients. Many of the systems that are coming out of China now, are defective, because of unskilled labor.

Also, as I have stated previously, in other threads... some of us are not raising retail prices or by very little in comparison to the rise in wholesale prices.

Thanks for the reply , Well honestly £270 for a system that is not custom is a lot of money considering i was getting my systems for £180 up until recently .. not stock is becoming harder and harder to get , people are now , in my opinion , taking the piss. He has now offered me a "deal" if i buy 3 systems from him , he will give them to me for £200 each. Which is what i would expect to be paying for a system generally. i know its only £70 but at this time we are all struggling with money and £70 is a lot of money. thankfully i am not desperate, but just want to stock up if i find a system going at a good reasonable price.

You suggest skin with a lace front, do these last as long as full lace ?

Skin, generally does not last quite as long as lace can, depends on you, and how you take care of it.

Lacefront is just an option if you prefer an exposed hairline...

I have had a number of clients swicth, and expose the hairline, or say screw it and change the hairstyle for ease of maintenance.
