Help!...I Can\'t Stay Out Of Sally\'s

Is it me? I can't help going to Sally's every other day. I'm wondering if I am becoming obsessed with my hair. I touch it often to make sure it's moist. I read post from other hair sisters and say to myself, hmmm, let me go buy that product and try it. I went there this morning and when I walked in the woman at the counter knew my name

Now you know that's not good. I gotta stay out of there.

Re: Help!...I Can\'t Stay Out Of Sally\'s

I feel your pain.
I walked into my favorite Sally’s (it’s huge) for the third time in one week and the girl looked up at me and yelled across the room cheerily “oh, back again?” I’m not a violent person, but I wanted to slap her dead in her mouth. I mean what was really behind that smiling face? Was she calling me a PJ? To my face? And she don’t even know me? Trying to say I spend too much money? These were wild accusations? How dare this *****?

Yeah, normally I might have gotten a little defensive about that, but not this time.

So I went to the Sally’s website and plotted all of the stores’s between my job and my home (there’s about 15). I go to different ones now. No, I’m not prone to extreme behavior at all.

After vehemently denying that I was a PJ, I decided to test myself. No Sally's no BSS venturing for 2 weeks. I've done okay, but then again I've been very busy. Yesterday, I had to go to Wal-mart yesterday to pick up some things for a new puppy…had to pass the hair care items isle to get there…thought I’d just dart in for bit since I had not restricted my self from Wal-mart (unconscious oversight or intentionally left out ??). I cannot believe the incredibly euphoric sensation that came over me upon entering the isle. It was like being at home, just where I belong, so comforting and relaxing as I anticipated the deep conditioning I was going to give myself that evening, getting something new or finding a bargain on one of my favorites. That, for me was scary, I never feel like that, I’m always running and I’m rather ashamed that hair products are responsible for it now.

My advice...back away from the Sally's and all BSS and the hair care isle at discount and department stores.

Re: Help!...I Can\'t Stay Out Of Sally\'s

I think I'm headed to the BSS this afternoon.

I'm glad I live no where near a Sally's or else, I would get banned from coming in there. The Asian beauty supply store I normally go to love seeing me for some reason....

I am a PJ, I confess it!

I did the same thing with Subway after I walked in and the guy looked up at me and yelled, "Seafood and Crab!"

Re: Help!...I Can\'t Stay Out Of Sally\'s

I stayed out of Sally's all week but I had to go to the drug store right -- well they have the VO5 conditioners on sale for 99 cents. I got a few this morning before coming in to the office, but they allow lunch breaks here -- a whole hour and it only takes about 20minutes to eat so I went for a walk and got a few more for my grandmothers -- God bless them, they are both alive with hair. I have to take them home two at a time, it'll take all week. I did get a good deal though 21.75 fl ozs. 45% more than the regular size.

Re: Help!...I Can\'t Stay Out Of Sally\'s

That's my Subway sandwich too.

I only have a couple of Sally Beauty Supply stores in my area.

Oh yeah. I'm on the July Challenge.

 

[Karonica]

Re: Help!...I Can\'t Stay Out Of Sally\'s

Don't feel bad. When I was going to Subway, I was a little bit obsessed with their chocolate chip cookies. It got to the point when I would come in, the Arab workers would start whispering to each other and laughing. And then, when it was time to order the cookies, if I said I wanted 2 cookies with my sandwich, they would literally stand there and wait for me to say "Give me 6 more of those..."

Re: Help!...I Can\'t Stay Out Of Sally\'s

Yeah it's hard but I am holding out pretty well. Only 14 more days to go!

Re: Help!...I Can\'t Stay Out Of Sally\'s

So I 'm not alone? Thank you. Cause I thought I was trippin'. But I really do have to go back tomorrow cause I forgot to get a new moisturizer

Here's the sad part. I was on my way to do some food shopping on Tuesday but saw Sally's. I went in, spent quite some time and paid for my stuff. I came home and put my bag down and realized I forgot to buy food.

. My husband told me he would do it cause Sally's is right next to our supermarket. But who says I got a problem...lol

Re: Help!...I Can\'t Stay Out Of Sally\'s

Ok. I actually drove by Sally's today and didn't stop

. But I had to go to Wal-Mart to get my daughter a new bookbag. Do you realize they have wonderful things in there now? OMG I never knew. Needless to say, I bought another moisturizer and another shampoo. But I have promised myself that next week I will not...will not make any purchases. I know I need help...lol

Re: Help!...I Can\'t Stay Out Of Sally\'s

FOFL( falling on the floor laughing)

Okay now my PJ secret....You know you have it bad when you go to Walmart on your B'Day to by yourself your 1st ceramic flat iron and you meet a total stranger that shares with you that she is a PJ (that's causing financial difficulties), who doesn't belong to a forum, and you buy her a ceramic curling iron.

If my husband ever find out this post must self-destruct...sh-sh-sh.

 

[shay_in_sc]

Re: Help!...I Can\'t Stay Out Of Sally\'s

I thought I was bad. But I do have a question. What is a PJ?

Re: Help!...I Can\'t Stay Out Of Sally\'s

You think that's bad? I went to see my dermie but they went out for lunch. So what did I do to kill time? I went to Sally's. But here's the bad part. I decided to get the Aura rinse instead of putting that money for gas

. How messed up is that? I have like a half a tank left or even less.

Re: Help!...I Can\'t Stay Out Of Sally\'s

Sad!!! I just finished working 7 days straight in a row, and instead of taking my butt home and sleeping, I waited around after work until Sally's opened. I went to Wal Mart for those 2 hours and came out with some Vo5 Blueberries-n-Cream Conditioner (for conditioner washes) that smells just yummy. I will have to post back with a product review.

Anyway...I work night shift (11PM-7AM) and Sally's doesn't open until 9AM. Did I mention that I drive over an hour to get to work? Oh, and the manager at Sally's stopped working to come and talk to me and ask me how I was doing since she last saw me?

Oh yeah Shay...join us

 

[shay_in_sc]

Re: Help!...I Can\'t Stay Out Of Sally\'s

Ok, I think I need help. I had a dream I was giving myself a deep conditioning. And it felt so good.

. I read this thread for a PJ and realized that not only was I hiding products from my husband but I we actually got into an argument behind it.

. But he got over quickly. He didn't want to have to sleep on the couch. I will get ugly if you mess with my produts...lol. But I am not due to go back to a bss until Fridday. That's my once a week visit. I wonder if I can hold out that long?
