I've been ordering from LaVivid for a while after MHE's quality went downhill. LaVivid has always been inconsistent but it's getting to the point where one out of three units is satisfactory.
The biggest scam of theirs is the change in their European hair. Their European hair has always been suspect--felt more like ultra-processed Indian hair to me, but who knows. It used to tangle terribly out of the shower, but at least it was fine and soft enough to be different from the Indian Remy hair.
Now I'm not convinced there is any difference. If anything, it's actually more coarse and wiry than Indian Remy hair. Not soft at all. The unit in the pic is a custom hybrid Keanu (they stopped offering this for some reason as a stock unit). The best part is, one Keanu order may be vlooped, and the next injected. The base is supposed to be .06, and I've never had an issue wearing my hair up at this thickness. However, this time around it appears to be much thicker to the point that I irritated the hell out of my forehead trying to cut the excess off. The edge of the hairline would not disappear after bonding (Ghostbond Platinum, which I always use on the hairline). The only thing they got right was the color.
The density is supposed to be 90% but my stylist had to thin this unit out more than any other unit I've ever had. It was a wall of hair. You would have to be blind to think this is 90% density.
I wore this for about three days and ripped it off. Reached out to their horrible customer service and was told to deal with it. Business must be good to treat customers this way as I have spent thousands with them for a few years now. No more. This unit was $328 after a coupon code.
Does anyone recommend a more competent company that offers skin units (I've given up on hybrid for now) with fine, soft hair and graduated hairlines? I would pay $500+ for consistency and quality. I've already tried MHE. Just ordered a Lite UTS from Lordhair. Never used them before but am aware of their quality, or lack thereof. Can't be worse than what I've been getting.
