LOOK like the others??

If you haven't bought your hair care products from a

LOOK like the others??
Don't be duped by look-a-like product!
If you haven't bought your hair care products from a
reputable salon you are taking your chances!
Why you should care?
- Old Product: Many times the products in the underground market will sit in warehouses for long stretches of time, causing the product to become outdated, or worse, contaminated in some way or another.
*"I had a client in my chair recently that complained of her hair 'turning' green from a 'salon professional' conditioner she bought from a grocery store- a conditioner! That doesn't happen unless the product has become in some way contaminated..." Roz, stylist from our Fulton Drive STSS
What to look for:
- The packaging: In this case, JUDGE a book by it's cover!! Think about it. If the product looks dirty or dented on the outside, what's really in the inside & HOW OLD IS IT?
- Does everything match?: Ask yourself "What is not matching?" Are the caps different colors or is something "off" about the
packaging in some way or another? In that case put it down &
walk, no run away something is NOT right!
- Batch codes: Check the labels. If batch codes (Look at the numbers above or below the bar code) are rubbed off or missing~ BEWARE this could be a sign that the product is Phoney!! Or that the third party is trying to erase evidence of original purchase- diverting!
Finally
Compare Prices!
- Not really cheaper: Even though diverted products may end up on the shelves of discount retailers, the prices are often not all that much of a difference. The $1 or often less in savings costs your favorite hairdresser more!!
- In fact, diverted products often cost more, {as a result of being shuffled around the gray market.}
