Searching for bow hair

Hi everyone,

One of my bows needs rehair and I decided to go with black hair this time. Any idea where I could find some decent hair for sale? One of our local shops used to have Gewa hair but they're out of stock. I've searched eBay but I found cheap Chinese hair only.

Many thanks,
Alex

Other than the shops are on opposite coasts (one is Northeast US & the other is Southwest US) no idea. Both I believe are Mongolian horsehair.

Yeah that makes no difference in my case hehe. Well to me it's no different from an eBay Mongolian hair , and its three times the price w/o shipping. I guess I won't know the difference before I see both up close

Any other shops/brands selling hair out there?

Thanks
