Sally's New Knock-Off

[kellistarr]

Sally's is at it again with the new Corkscrew Pin Knock-off. I'm pretty sure that it cost me like $5.88 before you use your beauty card. It's new in my area. That's cheaper than what I paid for it at Meijer and Target. They work great.





My bun using the pins

I did not expect to see a Goody Spin Pin knockoff. I like your bun.

How does this pin work in natural hair? Sounds like a good idea but at the same time I think it would get stuck in my hair.

Dang there's knockoffs of everything these these days. How much cheaper is this knockoff anyway? I can't imagine the Goody Spin Pin costing enough to constitute a knockoff.

Goody Spin Pin = $6.29 at Target. The Sally's Corkscrew Pin is $5.49 without a Sally's card, $4.99 with a card.

So this is used for bunning? OP did you use both pins for your bun?

 

[kellistarr]

dancinstallion- yes, I used both pins for my bun; one at the top and one at the bottom. You screw it in and the pins pretty much disappear. Screw them in counter clockwise, making sure that the one on the top doesn't touch the one on the bottom. It is not always necessary to use both pins. To get them out you simply unscrew them. It is very easy and doesn't take out your hair.

Chameleonchick- I am natural and the pins don't/won't get stuck in the hair.

Yay! I love buns. I'm going to get it. I always wondered how these worked but they never had black goody pins in store only blonde and brunette.

I really like the Goody Spin Pins and the Sally knock-offs aren't cheap enough for me to cross over.

You're right, the difference in cost is minute. But Goody Spin is so popular, often it's sold out, so this makes Sally's a good alternative. That's what I like about Sally's doing the knock-offs, if you can't get your hands on the original, Sally's will suffice, until you can.

mg1979- Thanks. The bun is great when I need my hair out of the way, or my planned hair-do is a fail.

Chromia- Thank You. I'm waiting for Sally's to do a knock-off to the Kinky-Curly Custard or the Shea Moisture Coconut-Hibiscus Smoothie. I don't believe that Sally's has done any knock-off butters.

Y'all need to find eBay. I got 6 for $1. They were knock-off, but EXACTLY the same as my Goodys.

They could have at least made it WAY cheaper .. Im all for Gerries but not if they are that close in price, Id just go get the Name Brand one for a 1.50

I bought mine from ebay as well. I think I paid under $2 for 10...shipped from Hong Kong.
