Ways to Get Natural Hair Products at Cheaper Price
Cruise the clearance section
Often times, you’ll be surprised at what you find. Pricey products can find themselves on the clearance endcaps for any number of reasons. Sometimes, that particular line of products may not be doing well at the store, and the retailer is trying to fast-track the phasing out. Other times, the manufacturer has re-vamped the product formula and packaging, and the retailer needs to make room for the newbies. Some products end up in the clearance section because they are damaged or used — I would steer clear of these. Any product that looks previously used, opened, or has obvious damage (like a completely broken nozzle, or the screw-on lid is shattered) is essentially a last-ditch salvage item for the store.
Spring for sample sizes
Many manufacturers employ sample giveaways in an attempt to drum up new business. Take advantage of those opportunities to try out products that you’re curious about, or that are too rich for your blood.
Always ask for more off
This may be off-putting to some folks, but it has worked like a charm for me. If an item is on clearance, or reduced for quick sell, there is almost always an opportunity to get an extra 10, 20, 30 percent or more off. All you have to do is ask.
Deals at discount retailers
Most people typically think of Ross, Marshall’s, and TJ Maxx as places to find discounted clothes, shoes, and purses. A lot of us see the hair products, tools, and body lotions and keep walking. Next time, slow your roll. You’ll typically find salon-level products at upwards of 50% the retail store price. The only down side is that because their stock always changes, there’s no guarantee that your product will be there next time.
