Its only a matter of time before people cut out the janky resellers and start heading to Ali Baba themselves. Probably going to hurt a lot of these folks who want to open little stores selling little trinkets and cell phone accessories and stuff
absolutely, we're becoming a service dominated economy
everybody literally has access to the same products

There's someone I know who said they making a killing on distribution.

Never went into details but he spoke of some sort of overseas connect.

Yep you can go to China and ship it back or take it back with you. Customs may fukk with you though bringing it back.

A girl I went to middle school with is I guess some popular weave seller, but I remember her posting pics in China on vacation and I guess to meet with suppliers. I would think Alibaba may have made it easier for others to break into the industry, unless all of the hair is poor quality.

:patrice:Lately, I been thinking that after I grow my hair out real long , imma cut it then sell it as a weave for my black sistas outchea:obama:

Even checked the price for some jerry curls (my hair type) weaves and I could easily get over 500 bucks min. Thinking that woke sistas would love it even more, cuz it aint no phaggot ass Indian or Asian, instead authentic African :wow:
It would be the easiest side hustle ever


So @miranda @Phoenix_Knightly23 @Juicy @Jisselle @Paradise Road @CinnaSlim @MoonGoddess @InDePickWest @live it to the limit @Elle Driver

Ya'll are some woke sistas, would any of you be interested if I was to do this? :patrice: Need to garner some responses for my final decision

Weaves that mimic natural 3C-4B hair seems to be the wave nowadays...I say give it a go if you're serious. You have my support lol

Alibaba is OK but the kat is out the bag no with them. So everyone know about it.

The best bet is to go to places like Guangzhou and buy the weave straight from the manufacturer and get a price break from them. Mail the weave back or take it back with you in a suitcase.

I'm the worst person to give an opinion on this. I've never worn a weave and know absolutely nothing about hair :( I literally have two hairstyles: messy bun and down.
I was trying to learn how to do a fishtail braid on youtube but I'm not that talented :(

I've never worn weave other than when i get braids or twists. But it's big business. Just be careful.
:whoa:
There's been a few murders in my city over weave. 3 or 4 people killed in the last couple of years because they were known to sell weave.
