When the going gets tough…
… the tough stop buying expensive salon hair products! Nothing makes me feel like I am washing money down the drain more than paying $20 for a bottle of shampoo. Sure, it’s fancy, or organic, but I just can’t do it anymore! My hair doesn’t care if it’s L’Oreal, Tresemme, Aveda, or Paul Mitchell – it behaves just the same. Lately, I am all about the bargain hunting. Last week, on a routine trip to Target, I found a killer clearance deal on L’Oreal Vive Pro Nutri Gloss shampoo and conditioner on sale for just $2.96 a piece. Woo hoo! Now that’s more like it. On the next aisle, Aussie Hair Insurance shampoo for under $5, and Infusium 23 Frizzologie conditioner for just over $6. All three – the L’Oreal, Aussie, and Infusium – have done wonders for my hair. I can use a small amount of shampoo and stick work up a lather, and I don’t need a gallon of conditioner to coat my long hair like I do with my many spendy brands. I won’t be going back to them any time soon.

I am normally a “spendy” consumer but with these tough times I am looking for bargains as well. Please continue to keep us posted on budget items that are working and ones that we can avoid. I don’t know the bargain brands and their reputations so it would be really helpful. Thanks!

I have to say that I have always loved what Pantene conditioner has done for my hair, but I must add that it causes my back and below to break out terribly if I don’t thoroughly clean it off my skin after conditioning my hair. There has to be some ingredient in it that works wonders on my hair and clogs my pores…..
