QuoteReplyTopic: Compare Company Products~And Save $$$$$ Posted: March 05 2005 at 6:22pm
I thought this would be a good thread to start on comparing company products or finding products that are very similar and for maybe 1/2 the price. This thread was inspired by the girls at BHM Forum. Thank you for the idea girls.......let's share our findings so we can be more money sauvy!!
I saw this posted on the BHM Forum.....Look at these sites and look at the comparison the girl found http://www.hairlineillusions.com/services.html then comparehttp://www.hairpiece.com/product.asp?pf_id=APE912
WOW!!
Please post a product and a comparison, so we can make better choices!!

European Remi Straight~ Price: $ 3600.00 100% REMY human hair and a fine monofilament cap with French Lace across the front and temples Cap Size: Small ,Medium, Large Hair Length: 20" Long SMALL CAP SIZE: 20 1/2" - 22 1/2" MEDIUM CAP SIZE: 21 1/4" - 23 1/4" LARGE CAP SIZE 24 1/4"-26 1/4"
Biosilk Silk Therapy vs Generic Value Products Silk Treatment (the brand Sally's carries that touts itself as the Biosilk equivilent)
I have both. The ingredients read exactly the same and are in the same listed order. The fragrance is almost identical.
Generic got close but it's just a little thinner and doesn't absorb quite as nicely as Biosilk.
I put equal glops in the palm of my hand and turned it sideways. The Generic ran down my hand faster.
If you're on a budget, go with the Generic. It's pretty darn close. If you've had Biosilk before and liked it and money isn't really an issue, you'll probably prefer the Biosilk.
Amm, have you actually tried the generic BioSilk on your hair yet? It made mine sticky, like mousse, which the real stuff never did. I hated it, and returned it to Sally's.
Of course, that's just my own experience. If you like it, then yes, the generic is waaaaay cheaper.

No kidding Jenny.......Major mark ups!!!!! I am constantly looking for products and sometimes I forget where I see them. This makes it so much easier to find all on one page!! I though this way we can go straight to the best deal in secs without all that searching. I figured I'd spend all night getting as much product comparisons as possible as I won't be around for the next couple days......off to Vegas!! YEEHAA!!

Wait a freakin' minute here....$3500 for a WIG?! $4000 for a dreadlock WIG?! They can't be serious! You can get a custom made wig for much less than that! That is absolutely insane!
But to stay on topic...yes - we definitely should post comparisons when we run across them. But I think the board has been doing a fantastic job lately of posting links to all kinds of helpful and amazing things. Good work, girls!
I still can't get over it. Four large for a wig.
