I came out of hiding to say that not only have they raised their prices but some things have gone down in terms of quality.
I recently went to go buy a package of plastic shower caps. Usually they're less than 2.99 for a package of 30 but now they're 3.99
Not to mention that the elastic is not what it used to be-- it's all flimsy and I have to throw one away after each use

Sally Beauty 1Q profit soars 63 percent

Denton-based Sally Beauty reported Thursday a 63 percent increase in fiscal first-quarter profits and posted higher sales from a year ago.
The retailer and wholesaler of beauty supplies and hair products has benefitted during the downturn from shoppers turning to its stores for at-home products in between fewer visits to salons.
The company reported profit of $26.1 million, or 14 cents a share, in the fiscal first quarter ended Dec. 31, up from $16.1 million, or 9 cents a share, a year ago. Excluding items, the company earned 13 cents a share. Analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters expected a profit of 14 cents a share on revenue of $692 million.
Sales rose 9 percent to $704.9 million as value-conscious shoppers try to save money and do more salon-type styling at home.
Same-store sales increased 3.8 percent. Total store count at the end of the quarter was 3,935, an increase of 166 stores from the same-time last year.
“We had a strong first quarter and a good start to the new year,” chief executive officer Gary Winterhalter said during a conference call this morning.
In December, the company acquired Sinelco Group NV, a wholesale distributor of professional beauty products in Europe, for approximately $37 million in cash. Sinelco is based in Ronse, Belgium, and serves more than 1,500 customers in 35 countries through a product catalog, Web site and sales offices in Belgium, France and Italy.

Really? That sucks was it the Salon Care Brand? I used to love buying their stuff including the big pack of shower caps. But I did notice that beginning of this year I went in and none of the stuff had prices. Like when you could see the sally's price and the member prices none of them had any prices listed at all. I had to ask the check out girl all of the prices.I came out of hiding to say that not only have they raised their prices but some things have gone down in terms of quality.

I went to Sally's yesterday and I notice they had jacked up the price even more than what it is usually jacked up to. I looked at the circular and they had coupons, but when you looked at the price minus whatever deduction the coupon gave, it was still higher than what I paid for some of the items last month. I was looking at the Aphogee 2 min and a few other items. Also I noticed they have gone up on the plastic caps. I went to another local BSS right down the street (B&P on Winchester and Kirby for the Memphis folks) and some items were up to 2.00 cheaper. I'm not a loyal customer to any particular store, I go where my money can go farther.
