Nope, they are still more expensive like everything.
Hair systems before the pandemic I could get stock systems for £150, now they are £250 or more.
The quality has gone downhill too, many dried out hair systems.
Speed maybe quicker as we are not in lockdown like in 2020.

Dude, I couldn't agree more.
I went third party when the Pandemic hit and was still getting good pieces till Fall of 2020, but then the quality of everything dropped dramatically.

Depends on supplier. So many new ones have popped up. Stick to Lord/Lavivid
I've stuck with a smaller supplier which seems to be fine for me

It's grim. Quality standards are the major issue.
No, don't.
Def not Lord anyways.

Could you PM the name?
I’ve been using various companies w mixed results, even from the same company, on duplicate pieces.
sorry for bringing up Lord ans Lavida. I assumed they were good…haven’t used Lord in a while.
I always thought Lord had terrible quality hair, but I wasn’t taking care of my pieces then, removing at night, and having hair to flip over into the tape.
because my first piece was cut very short I didn’t have that problem,
So I attributed it to Lord accidentally/stupidly

Since fall 2020 (which I agree was the cutoff point where pre-pandemic stock seems to have dried up) I've ordered from several suppliers. Bysix had by far the best quality hair, comparable to pre-pandemic standards in terms of the condition of the hair. But the ventilation is no better really than other suppliers.
I found an AliExpress seller who has the ventilation a little more fine tuned than I've been able to find since Fall 2020, but not consistently from piece to piece, and the condition of the hair is terrible. So those have been my buzz cut pieces.

Re: Bysix, I maybe don't see the ventilation being an issue if you keep the stock hairline contour intact and wear the hair a little longer. For what I was doing (very short haircut with fully exposed and carved irregular hairline) it's not well made enough and I had to get really MacGuyver with it to pull off the look.

SuperHairPieces seem ok quality. Not terrible but not high quality either. Then again it's a stock system.

Hair quality is still an issue, wholesale prices are still fluctuating, and supply has increased dramatically.
Production times are down to almost pre-pandemic levels.
Don't expect prices to return to pre-pandemic levels, unless N. Korea re-opens, which it hasn't.

Agreed. I used to order a lot from LordHair, but they messed up my order badly. Fine, they could have just done something for me and apologized and I could still order from them... But they did none, and blamed me for my "incorrect" haircare routine, etc. So not anymore.
I talked with my supplier the other day, they told me their factory is almost back to normal, and I still can get my unit without having to place a preorder. A happy camper here !
