Why is self service not an option? I was also paying $800/piece, that was 10 years ago. I buy my own custom systems online and I have learned to cut them myself watching youtube videos and experimenting - this starting from not having a clue. I bought scissors and thinning shears on ebay and got to work. Yes, I ruined several but finally I am producing systems I can wear with confidence and I think they are better than what the "pros" were giving me. The confidence of knowing I can do this myself is priceless. No more worries if I move to x city who will do my hair? Me! And I do get them for $200/piece at hollywoodlace.com, although I know there are several other websites that are similar. I buy supplies from hairdirect.com (coloring and hair sprays).
Btw, the others are right too, you can buy a custom piece and chop it down a little until it gets to the important part, then wear it in to a salon with a hat. They do get these requests so it's not totally strange to them. however, I do not recommend it as cutting a hairpiece is different than cutting growing hair, namely in that the hairpiece must be appropriately thinned at the appropriate spots, something they are probably not used to doing, it is a specific skill.
