There's tonnes of competition as far as beauty supply stores are concerned but Sally's consistently manages to have everything that one would need, plus the quality of the merch is professional grade at reasonable prices so if you have the beauty know-how, Sally's is indeed the proverbial shit.
Given that I came in 10 minutes before closing, with a monster line-up at the cash and the fact that I had a mother lode of products to ring in, the cashier was still pretty cordial, which was surprisingly nice.
I also scooped up some supercute "Sally Girl" mini lipsticks and mini lipglosses at $1.69 a pop...I cross my fingers and hope these uber-cheap cosmetics weren't manufactured by suicidal Asian factory workers or made with or tested on infant swine, all the while marvelling at their great moisturization and saturation of color with that hackneyed twinge of vanilla flavour.
The patrons of this particular Sally's consist of postpubescent Snook-a-likes sporting unseasonably unfashionable muk-luks and who have a penchant for using black eyeliner as lipliner, which definitely gave hubby a good chuckle. Tragic beauty casualties aside, give Sally's a try to stock up on all those beauty essentials under one roof, all at an amazing price.
