Action Exclusives Hair Care Line, orgin D.C.

[moneychaser]

This line is VERY popular in the Washingtion Metro area. Almost every stylist I have been to uses this line. This is a black-owned company, similar to Dudley's product line. I just found out they have a bss up the street from my house. I just got back man o man, their products are soo cheap... The have everything from a relaxer system, heavy concentrated protein 10.99 called MVP to peppermint shampoo (2.99).
I called their 1-800 number to ask if they had a website, NO

Anyone have the 411 on this line

I picked up the peppermint and theraputic shampoo, being the product junkie I am

 

[moneychaser]

Guess not

 

[Karonica]

They have the Exclusives perm? Are you kidding me?

 

[miss_brown]

Action has everything

And yes, their products are very reasonably priced. My old stylist swears by them, and their spray serum is the BOMB. I always smell the therapeutic shampoo

and it smells delicious.

The lady is always recommending their ACE Gold conditioner to me, but I haven't gotten around to purchasing it yet.

 

[Karonica]

Do they come in the black and white packaging? I know that the Exclusives perm does, but I want to make sure ya'll are talking about the same thing because I've never seen Exclusives brand stuff in the store.

I remember a hairdresser used the Exclusives blue shampoo on my scalp. Good gawd! That tingling, cool feeling was out of this world.

You use Action Exclusive Perms

 

[Karonica]

That's all they use at the salons nowadays, or the ones I go to.

 

[Country gal]

Where is Capitol Heights? I get the Heights confused in Maryland since their are so many heights. Marlow Heights, District Heights, Capitol Heigths.

 

[Karonica]

I'm thinking it's somewhere on the blue line train. Don't know for sure, but I *think*.

Yup it's on the blue line right before you get to the Addison Road metro stop. Capitol Heights is off of Central Avenue right next to the DC line.

 

[Country gal]

Oh, I don't like that area. I will only go in the daytime then.

 

[moneychaser]

The one I went to is off 202 (down the street from the Fed-X stadium), around the corner from Mitchelville (sp?) Their hours are funny so I would call before going.

See, denali, now you make me want to go get that spray serum again.

I guess I'll just have to wait until this product challenge is over. Have you tried the reconstructor yet?

BTW, sbaker and Karonica, I always go to the one on 202 because it's easier to get to. Their hours are a little funny, but they have the ENTIRE Action line (and other goodies too). Warning - Palmer Park is a little *questionable* but the people at the bss are really nice.

 

[moneychaser]

I haven't tried it yet, but I thought it was cute they called it Growth Creme because it stops breakage. Lets me know they know a lil sumthin about hair growth.
I added a little peppermint oil to it and cant wait to try it this Friday...

That's the one that my hairdresser goes to! I think it's in Landover. Exclusives makes this oil that she puts in my hair and it makes my hair soft and shiny.
