0 How to find the cheapest hair products

A lot of small business hair companies use a base to make their products. This means that a lot of companies are essentially selling the same exact product at different price points. So, if you do a little digging you can find a product you love for a lower price.


Here's how:
Go to a wholesale base price such as: Africa Imports or Essential Wholesale

Select a base such as: Unscented Conditioner Base 1 lb. 20 oz. $8.95 or

                                        Citrus Conditioner Base 16 oz.      16oz. $9.00 
Copy the ingredients:
African Import Ingredients: Aloe barbadensis (Organic Aloe) Juice, Lavendula angustifolia (Organic Lavender) Distillate, Anthemis nobilis, (Organic Roman Chamomile) Distillate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Ricinus Communis (Castor Seed) oil, stearalkonium Chloride, Phenoxyethanol, Hydrolized Wheat, d-Calcium Pantothenate, (Panthenol Vitamin B5), Kosher Vegetable Glycerin, Rosa mosqueta (Rosehip), Seed oil, salix nigra (Organic Black Willow Bark) extract

or

Essential Wholesale Ingredients: Aloe barbadensis (Organic Aloe) Juice, Lavendula angustifolia (Organic Lavender) Distillate, Anthemis nobilis (Organic Roman Chamomile) Distillate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Ricinus communis (Castor Seed) Oil, Stearalkonium Chloride, Phenoxyethanol, Essential Oils, Hydrolized Wheat Protein, d-Calcium Pantothenate (Panthenol Vitamin B5), Kosher Vegetable Glycerin, Rosa mosqueta (Rosehip) Seed Oil, Salix nigra (Black Willow Bark) Extract

Place ingredient list directly in a search engine, I used Google. A list of companies websites will come up that use this same exact mix of ingredients or base or similar bases. Use this as a guide to find different bases.

Here are some of the results I got and the bases that match:

Luvamouri- Her Highness Conditioner 8 oz. $12

*Get this from Essential wholesale 16 oz. $8.25



Here some more companies using with the same ingredients:
Beauty and Glory  Cordells Curing Conditioner 12 oz. $14.99
Zipporah Beauty   Citrus Delight Conditioner 8 oz. $12.50
Le FP Green Body Care "Lush" 8oz. $54!!!
Dagny and Lane Clarifying Conditioner 8oz $18

Crazy right? I'm going to be doing more of these searches to help save us all money! Remember when using a base companies are only allowed to add 5% to the products. So, 95% of all of these products are the exact same and as you can see some companies don't add anything extra.

Let's do a little math:
20 oz of conditioner base = $8.95 (about .45 cents per oz.)
8 oz of the same conditioner base = $3.60

So some of these prices are more than triple, quadruple...okay I'm going to stop right here. Ya'll do the rest.
