Your A-List: Best Place to Buy Beauty Products
Once you get your hair did, you have to maintain, people (not that I would know much about that). And when it comes to beauty products, especially those for the head, it seems The Beauty Store is your preferred destination location.
The winner, with 38 percent of the vote, of this week’s poll opened in 1988 and has since expanded to four locations, with the newest store opening at Braker Lane and US 183 in the summer of 2008. While the stores do carry cosmetic lines by Glo Mineral and Jane Iredale, their real bread and butter is the bevy of hair care products they carry. And for those looking to save a buck in these tough economic times, twice a year the stores offer free liter day, in which you get a free 32 oz. bottle of shampoo with the purchase of a 32 oz. bottle of conditioner.

- Sephora, 28 percent
- Ulta, 17 percent

- Bath and Body Works, 2 percent
- Emerald’s, < 1 percent
- Body Shop, < 1 percent
- Myka, < 1percent
- Sabia, < 1 percent
- Black Butterfly, < 1 percent

Matthew: If you end up correcting your grammar in this report, would you also change the category heading back to Best Place to Buy Beauty Products. The term supplies tends to refer to DIY places like Sally’s Beauty Supply which is very different from Sephora, the Beauty Store, or Nordstrom. I understand why a guy might not initially make that distinction.

DPLABENS: Thanks for the catch re: products v. supplies.
