Sexi, Meechie, ITA that this is a shame and a disgrace to charge someone that much $$ for something she learned on the forum.  I also have a business with my sister and our prices are reasonable and fair.  Lace caps are relatively new in the Seattle area so we try to provide not only products but A1 customer service.  This means answering millions of questions from someone who may or maynot purchase, applications and reapplications, tweeking clients units, answering crisis calls when they don't know what to do, etc.  But it is more about providing quality customer service.  We have a lot of customers with alopecia and hair loss issues and these are the ones that are the most rewarding.  To see the look on their faces when they see what they can look like, how good they feel about themselves, well yall know what I mean.  So, that's wyh it is worth it to us.  Shame on Sista Gurl.

SMDH
**SHAKES MY DAMN HEAD***
 
wow..where doe she live at charging those prices.
I feel the same about weaves. NO ONE TAUGHT ME NOTHING . EVERY THING I HAVE LEARNED ABOUT WEAVES WAS SELF TAUGHT OR I LEARNED FROM A HAIR BOARD. YOU HAVE TO BE PASSIONATE ABOUT IT. IT TAKES TIME AND PATIENTS.
 
 
AMAZING!

I know exactly who that is....I saw that & was like Shockedfurious
 
Because I truly believe in this & my business. I have customers whose hairline have faded all the way back to the middle of their head due to traction (from braids/weaves)
 
I've cut off 16" of my own hair to the bald I love this so much. It has truly been a blessing to me. Yes I understand gettin your hustle on But COME ON now....its like Sexi said, if she gets 2 ppl she'll make a grip.  But that's just not good business & not fair to her customers.....

wow......... this is so crazy. It makes you not wanna share. I hate when people make money off YOUR ideas.  Wigs are way more complicated then simply slapping them on and off. I truly  believe that lace wigs just as great weaves are truly an art. You have to have passion and a sense of creativity.
I have customers who I have done their apps and the application is fabulous, but they do nothing with the hair and say " I want it to look like yours" I say to them you need to have it stlyed to fit YOU. If not, it is just hair.
 
I love hair, weaves, wigs, makeup , clothes I am a women! I take pride in  every customer and treat them well, cause that is what I want as a customer. I believe that there will be MANY come up artist that think that this is an easy buck, have you noticed...everyone is NOW selling wigs. They come to this site and injest all that inofrmation and want quick tips on apllication to make a quick dollar and I am simply tired of it. 
 
Members like Bless, Bhree, Ebony, ladydi,  and others have wig business that will and are prospering simply because they have the passion for this business. Not like these fly by nite site and poeple sellings wigs!
 
 
I am going to stop now cause I am getting to upset......
 
 
Meechie I agree with you 100%.  You definitely have to a passion for hair in order to apply and style a lf.  You also have to enjoy doing it.   There are many fly by nite operations out there looking to make a quick buck.  You also have to have to be honest and fair with your clients because in the end it will come back to haunt you.
