My friend the hairstylist........ - tanTALK

My friend the hairstylist can get me all your lotions for less then half price. She always hooks me up!

I hate that! I hear it everyday almost.

And I can't sell you Paul Mitchell at cost. Oh wait, I can't even buy Paul Mitchell? Ain't that something?????

howardtheduck · 07-21-2005, 04:40 PM

why not boycott the lotion companies that supplie these places? The only obvious problem is that some hair salons have tanning. crap....
Anybody else have a suggestions to combat this type of activity?
Obviously the manufacturers can't or wont try to control it, maybe we the people should rally against it somehow. But how?

Yeah I don't know of any hair salon that carries Designer Skin or Tanology. It's usually Supre or Body Drench or that Hempz stuff. Time to bring in a new lotion line BP

how about the whole issue with Australian Gold on the shelves in Wal Mart. Isn't that just as bad if not worse? Of course I know of plenty of salons who still carry it and a few major chain salons under contract with "the company" that manufactures it. ridiculous. Why would you want to compete with walmart?

I like Supre and Body Drench products, but are gradually weeding them out and replacing with Designer Skin and JA, for the reasons stated above!
I did bring it up to Supre in Vegas, they said that they have no control because the Hair/Beauty side of their company is separate. Yet, I still hear that beauticians (and all their friends) can get tanning lotions cheaper than we can!

Wow I haven't seen AG at Walmart....that's just plane nasty and all the more reason not to sell that C***....

AG is available at Wal-Mart in some parts of the country. Up North, it hasn't hit yet.

Sarge · 08-10-2005, 10:14 AM

I don't believe that AG is the same stuff at walmart. I've seen AG all over Florida in gift shops but it isn't the same.

Does that really matter?
