A friend of mine, who has her cosmetology license invited me to tag along on her trip the day they were offering 10% off store -wide, how could I refuse?
While I have worked at a salon in the past, I do not have a license and was never at a supplier that was for professionals only.
I was amazed at their vast selection of professional brands and products. They carried everything beauty from hair color and developer, to salon quality hair lines, to nail care supplies, and even waxing and skincare products. The prices were lower than retail but probably not as low as wholesale unless you had a resale certificate.
I'm a fan of Paul Mitchell's soft spray and usually get it cheaper on ebay than I would at a salon. The lowest I've ever paid is $18 for 18 ounces online and it's even higher at a salon. Here a 8 oz bottle was priced at $6.29 before the 10% discount!
Thankfully I was able to stock up on a few bottles courtesy of my friend, otherwise I probably wouldn't have been able to purchase.
While browsing the store we were approached at least twice asking if we needed assistance. The cashier was a little over zealous but it could easily be overlooked. While the store isn't large, it's also not congested and felt modern and clean just like a salon.
4 stars only because it's not available to the general public. But the savings are worth getting in good with a stylist who can bring you along! read more
