    The manager & sales assoc. at store #3392 in Lake Worth, TX were the most RUDE individuals today. I went in to the store to return some conditioner I had recently purchased (purple shampoo/conditioner for my blonde hair). I did not need it anymore since I dyed my hair brown. I was grilled with several questions as to why I wanted to return the item by the sales assoc. and then she calls the manager over, I told the manager repeatedly I don't need the conditioner because my hair is brown now! So she says "Well, I will just put in the computer you are unsatisfied." Her attitude was horrific and then proceeds to convince me I should look around the store to shop, I declined (I just wanted out of that store). So with great unwillingness she acted like she would go ahead and do the refund.

    If that wasn't bad enough, she then demands my credit card, which I did not have on me, it is a debit card fyi. Anyway she said she could not give a refund. So she made me sign my name and phone number (because she had already printed out a refund receipt), saying I did not get a refund. I left, went home & came back to the store with my debit card, and the sales assoc. all of a sudden is doing the refund & I went to the manager to apologize for my attitude just in case it was me taking everything out of context.

    The manager did not apologize. I can tell you this, I have been shopping at Sally's for a decade and I have ALWAYS encountered these employees with poor customer service skills, ignorant of products & unapologetic females with the WORST ATTITUDES IMAGINABLE! I HAVE FINALLY HAD ENOUGH OF THIS NON SENSE, I will be looking for a better beauty store in the future! - Very Unsatisfied Customer

    Purchased new salon chair that was to have a free item with purchase. Free item did not come with chair and Sally Beauty advised they ran out of item and would not be sending me any item to replace same. Beware of buy item and get an item free from this company... I have been dealing with this company for years and really sad they are dealing with customers in this fashion.

    I went into Sally Beauty Supply to purchase hair care products with my student cosmetology card. I had been there 2 days prior using the same card. The employee ** stated my card was inactive although my card clearly had been renewed at another Sally store, and active was right on the front of the card. I asked for my card back so that I could call and verify the information myself and I was told no, my card was snatched back from me and thrown into an unknown location behind the counter. I told her that I was concerned with my privacy because the card contained my personal information. She then proceeded to tell me that she had all of my personal information in the computer and turned the screen around so that myself, as well as other customers, had a clear view of my personal information and then told me that was why I was too dumb to finish beauty school.

    I was then told to "get the hell out of her store" and that she would not be ringing me up. I called Sally customer service several times and they refused to hear my complaint. ** in customer service said, "You may take legal action so we cannot help you." I literally cried, I was so afraid and I am still afraid that this person has access to my home address and could harm me and my family. Sally Beauty Supply seems to be comprised of gangsters and thugs, not employees. If I could give them 0 stars, I would.

    I purchased a drawstring pony tail from the Fountain Valley store on a Saturday. When I opened it to wear to work on Monday there was a completely different hair piece in the package. I went to the Sally's closest to my home to get it exchanged and the store manager not only refused to help me but she refused to give me the phone number to the corporate office and insisted that I needed to go back to the store where I bought it, even though this is part of a chain.

    After I left she called the manager of the store where I bought the hair to warn her I was coming. The manager of the store where I bought the hair happily helped me and didn't understand why ** didn't help me. From now on any business I give to Sally's will be at the store farther away from my home because I work in customer service and understand how to provide a positive member experience.

    I placed an order on Feb 25 when the were having an awesome clearance sale. It was mostly all presents so I was thrilled! I ordered 2 small flat irons in a pouch, 1 pink large flat iron, 2 curling irons, 4 large plastic rollers, and 4 medium rollers. Well I kept getting messages saying order delayed, ok no big deal. Then I get an email saying one flat iron out of stock. So I call them and say why is something out of stock? I placed my order early in the morning that Wednesday, and this was Monday. Most orders ship by then. She says "oh it has shipped".

    Umm nobody told me I was missing that item? I get my package that Thursday and it has 2 curling irons, and 4 rollers. HALF of my order!!!!! Customer service was no helps when I called, she was very rude!!! Said sorry the items are out of stock and discontinued, have a good weekend? Really why was I never told this? The items I did get were filler items to get the free shipping. I didn't even get the good stuff!!! I have been a long time shopper and will NEVER go back!!!

    I went into Sally Beauty #2857 for a diffuser for my hairdryer. Their "Universal" diffusers didn't fit my dryer so I asked the girl to show me the dryer she would buy. She showed me a dryer and spoke highly of it. I purchased $61.03. I ran a couple errands and got home and excitedly ripped the dryer out of the box. I went to plug it in and noticed a big scratch. I plugged it in and it didn't work. I tried several outlets. Didn't work still. I called the store immediately and told them my new dryer didn't work and I'd destroyed the box but I only wanted a working dryer and I had a receipt! I was told to come in.

    I went into the store. The girl at the counter told me it was an old dryer and she couldn't help me. I took a closer look at the dryer. It was indeed a very old used dryer. I assured them I had no idea what was going on. Basically they spoke Spanish and laughed and told me there was nothing they could do. Then the "Manager" got a man on the phone who wouldn't even listen to me. They reiterated that I was attempting to return an old dryer and they couldn't help me. My 3 year old dryer does not look as bad as this dryer I paid $61.03 for today. Basically I was called a liar and a thief and I was ripped off for sixty bucks.

    I have never in my entire life been treated like this. I cannot say enough BAD about my experience with this company. I'm in the beauty business. I know many bloggers. They really do not give a flying you know what about my experience in their store. I will tell everyone every day for the rest of my life how badly their service is. Bottom line... My bank already refunded my money. I just wanted a working hairdryer. Not smart business Sally Beauty #2857.

    Ordered four items during a clearance sale, one of which was a bonus item. I received emails from Sally's that my order was delayed & didn't think anything of it. When I received my package only two items were in it. I called customer service and they said the other two items were no longer available so my card was refunded. Conveniently one of the items not included was the free bonus item. Communicate with your customers if items will not be available. I would have never ordered the 2 items received if not for the item that was unavailable. Keep your online system updated. Why have a customer go to all this trouble if you are already sold out. AT LEAST send an apology letter with my package. I shouldn't have to decipher your computer code gibberish. If you include a bonus item and sell out then you owe your customers an alternative Bonus item not a "sorry SOL".

    I've bought hair extensions from Sally's about 5 times now. I've never had an issue before but this time when I wore my extensions for the first time they were not as soft, and they would get tangled very quick. They were the worst hair extensions I've ever had. They had split ends and it was just not a good batch of hair. I spent almost 200$ and I threw them away the next day, after I tried conditioning them and fixing them. I'm very, very upset. I did go back and I talked to the girls working there about them and all they could tell me was "Yeah, you probably just got a bad batch of hair."

    This review is for the online services only, in-store has always been a pleasant experience. Ordered several items on Black Friday. Was very excited as I thought I got very good deals. I live in Canada and hate paying duties and shipping but thought it would be worth it as several items I was getting were "bonus." Package was delivered 18 days later but only 7 of the 14 items arrived!! I never received an email stating this. NONE of the "bonus" items arrived. I was charged less on my visa but still paid the same shipping cost ($12.95).

    Called them and they explained my other items were out of stock and she offered a 20% coupon. Ultimately, I feel cheated. I feel they used the so-called bonus items as a way to get people to buy things from the online store. Will NEVER order from them online again. They are not dependable. You just don't know what you will get in the end. As stated earlier, in-store customer service has always been great.

I got an email says my order is shipped. When I got the order, I didn't get any electric brush. I called Sally beauty supply. I spoke to a lady, she said the electric brush is out of stock. I asked her why I didn't get to informed before shipping the order. She said because we are out of stock for the electric brush, and this is the 3rd time, I got rip off by Sally beauty supply.

    Sally offers many bonus or free items with purchases. They have you purchase minimums then tell "You get the free item." The problem is, I never get the free items. Their excuse "we ran out" and the fine print says while supplies last? Then why did your rep tell me to spend more and that she was looking at it and it was available at the time I purchased. I don't believe this is proper sales tactic and if I want to pay to ship the extra product back I can.

    Today my husband went into the Southgate location to obtain his student discount card for enrolling in to barber college. The manager who was off duty was outside smoking her cigarette and came into the building still puffing it (against the law and on camera) became very hostile towards my husband. When he asked her who she was talking to like that, she called him a ** and to get out of her store and called the police. How embarrassing. The police came and she still was trying to belittle him then went further and took his information down for her own personal use and the officer said that was lawful since it was on an application which he asked for back.

    This was my first time visiting Sally Beauty Supply store. I bought Joewell Craft Styling razor for $20 from Sally Beauty in Kingstowne, Virginia. The sales lady there recommended aftershave lotion which she said I could return it back for a refund if I was not satisfied so I bought that also. When I got home I tried the new razor. This razor sucked. I did not get a good smooth shave and was not happy with it so I decided to return it back. They refused to accept the return! I was shocked. They said "Look at the back of the receipt, see the Product Return Policy. It says all sales final for blades and cannot be returned." Yeah right. I did not know that until after I bought it! They set up a trap. This store is a robber! Their products may be inferior. This was my first visit and my last visit to this store. Adios Sally.

    Sales rep at the Fenton, Mo location asked if she could assist me upon arriving. I inquired about the wella 50 and developer. Sales rep stated, "Do you have hair dye on your hair now?" I said, "yes, I do. I went from blonde to jet black two days ago." Sales rep states, "then you need to bleach your hair or strip it in order for it to process to the color you want." I said, "hmmm really?" I said, "You're talking to someone that put four boxes of hair dye on my hair in one day." I said, "I'm pretty confident I know my hair better than you, so I am purchasing the magenta and a 40 developer." Poor service from this sales rep along with a ** attitude. I don't even have a license to do hair but I am obvious more knowledgeable than the employee.

    Today 10/10/2014 I went into Sally's #3367 to exchange a hair color that I bought about 3 weeks ago. I could not find my receipt and all I wanted to do is exchange it for the right color. When I approach the counter I begin to explain to the associate ** who was in charge for the evening that I did not have my receipt and all I wanted to do is exchange the hair color. She asked me 3 different times if I had the receipt and each time I told her no, she then told me that it would be better to come back tomorrow when the manager was on duty. I then responded for an exchange for the same product I need the store manager to do it. All the associate could say is "it would be better to come back tomorrow when the store manager is here." Then she asked, "Well do you need it today?" I responded, "I would like it today that's why I am here." She said that she could do an even exchange with the receipt only.

    So I left upset, frustrated, and confused. I couldn't understand what the big deal was on an even exchange with less than 30 days of purchase. I went home and looked high and low for the receipt after about 30-35 mins. I found it. So my daughter and I head back to the store #3367 to hopefully exchange with no problem. So we went back in and told her I found the receipt. I told her that I read the back of the receipt regarding the store policy and I told her that nowhere on the receipt does it state that only Store Managers can do exchanges without the receipt. She then tried to explain why she could not do the even exchange, she proceed to say that the company sends them email on new store policies as they change.

    Then an associate walked into the store and ** got that associate involved in the issue, which she had no idea what was going on. I have 17 yrs of retail up to about 2 months ago. One thing I do know you do not treat your customers wrong and that there is always suppose to be a member of management on duty at all times. I hope that everybody at this store #3367 will get some customer service training.

    In my life, I have had a few truly bad shopping experiences but nothing compares to what happened at Sally's Beauty Supply. I can truly say that my trip to the store was the worst shopping experience I have ever had. As I look back at what happened today, I still cannot get over the horrible and embarrassing experience I had today. On August 17th I purchased a straightener and a hair dryer from Sally's. On September 17th, 30 days prior to the return policy deadline, I came in to exchange the straightener and hair dryer I purchased. Prior to coming into the store I called and asked if they could look up my purchase transaction via the credit card I used. I was told that this would be no problem.

    When I arrived at the store, the sales associate working said she had no idea who would have told me that because they had no way of looking up transactions via credit card. “There is nothing I can do for you”, she said. Without a receipt, she said, I could neither return nor exchange the products I purchased. So I start looking through the thousands of receipts floating through my wallet and bag. After about 15 min I finally found the receipt and was able to exchange my item.

    On the 23rd of September I purchased a professional straightener that, although cost four times more, works like a champ! At this point I had already decided that I did not want to do business with a company that has such strict return policies. Because I had such an awful time the last time I came to exchange a product I decided to call the customer service line and talk to them. At this point I find out from the rep that the Sally’s employee lied to me and that they can, and do all the time, call customer service and trace my purchase. I asked the customer service rep to call the store, as I was walking in, and make sure that I don't have any problems. I walked in and saw the manager on the phone with the rep. I set out my items, along with a receipt on the counter. What happened next was like a real nightmare!

    The manager grabs my items and starts very rudely and loudly saying to me that the products I am trying to return have not been carried by Sally's for at least 2 months. Then another sales girl starts backing her and they accuse me of trying to return an item that they don't have and have not had! I kept asking them to scan the item just to make sure because I was sure I just purchased it. I had a receipt for God sakes! I went to the hair dryer section and grabbed the same hair dryer I was trying to return in a different color. I had pink and the space where the pink dryers were was empty. I took the box to the front and started showing her that it is the same hair dryer.

    The manager started yelling at me, told me to leave the store and called the police!! I have never been so insulted in my life! The police? What? I am a Realtor. I have my own business. What if my clients were to see me? Or the parents from my children's school? Embarrassment to the max. At this point in time all the 4 employees working are out there making a scene kicking me out, talking to the police. At this point I started crying. I couldn't believe it. How could they do that without even scanning my product?! I called customer service and Sally's legal department and both told me it would take 72 hours to research the claim. I asked the paralegal, why is it that no one in your company can just scan my product and tell me what is going on?!

    I Googled another Sally's and asked for the manager there. I told her what happened at the other store and asked if she could just do me a favor and check whether they carry the products I was returning. In less than 2 minutes she ran the codes and surprise surprise both of the products are carried by Sally's!! I came home and cried. I was humiliated, degraded, accused of being a thief, lied to, kicked out of a store where I spent almost 150 dollars and had 2 police officers come to make the situation even more embarrassing. I tried to contact the regional manager but no one seemed concerned. I feel like what happened was like something off a crazy movie. I can't believe that it is legal for stores to do this. I feel attacked, harassed and discriminated against because I was wearing a shirt with a Jewish symbol. That is the only thing I can find to explain what happened!

    A couple months ago I was looking a good wig that is 100% real hair. So I went to Sally's and they didn't have any short hair wigs. I had to look through their book and order one myself. So I ordered a short hair black wig. The lady that worked that night said that it will take 3 to 4 business days to get here. I came back 4 days later it was not in, so I waited a week later and it was still not in. So they said they'll call me when it comes.

    I waited 1 month and no phone call. But I kept waiting for them to call me. After waiting for 2 months for my wig to come in I called them to see what's up. They were not sure. After waiting 2 months and a half it finally came in which pisses me off because they lied to me about the wait time. But this is not even the worst part yet. The wig that I was given was 100% fake hair. I knew it was fake hair because when I used an iron on the hair, it melted the hair. It made me super pissed and the wig was poorly made.

    I did not bother saying anything or going back to complain because I don't think I can do anything about it since I already damaged the wig. So I just gave up and promised myself to never spend my money there ever again. The funny thing is a couple weeks later I went to a different hair salon called Val-u hair salon. They were very nice and sweet. I asked them how much their real hair wigs costs and they told $50-$80 only. That made me even more pissed that I had to pay $136 for a fake wig. I even bought a $55 wig there to test it out and I was very satisfied. The wig did not melt under a curling iron. I was able to style the wig. Never wigs from Sally's. They suck and their wigs are fake - not real.

    I shop at Sally frequently because I'm a stylist in the greater Columbus area. My home store is out at Easton, but I decided to stop in on the location on the East Side because I had something to do in Pickerington. I'm not sure what was going on today but that place was a mad house. I was in the shopping center for a little over two hours, popping in and out of Sally because I kept forgetting things. Over that two hour duration I witnessed a VERY pregnant girl come out a meeting in the back room with what appeared to be management, she was crying profusely. Earlier in the day the management had fired a homosexual man and he was crying in the parking lot when I pulled up.

    The help that I had received in the store from the employees was wonderful, I just wish they were a little more bubbly. The negative atmosphere created by the management (man in plaid shirt) made me feel uncomfortable and upset that he would treat employees as if they were animals. He caused a homosexual and pregnant woman to cry and there is no excuse for that. What has happened to workplaces morals? If you can't care for and treat your employees with respect how can I expect you to take care of me? I will no longer be shopping at Sally as I feel that there is a much larger problem than just this store. I would rather spend my money on the good stuff at Ulta!

I was shocked and embarrassed and of course asked why. She introduced herself as the manager and was immediately very hostile. She said that my daughter had a friend who was suspected of shoplifting. My daughter said "but that's not me and I am not friends with her. She is just an acquaintance." I felt sorry for her. She was very embarrassed but she remained calm under the circumstances. The manager on the other hand was hostile and was yelling. I asked if I could buy the product and she said yes.

    While at the cash, she said she didn't like my daughter's attitude. I told her that my daughter's attitude is not her concern and that to be frank, I didn't like hers. She said, "Fine, now you can't shop here either." I told her that I would like the number for customer service. She said, "You can get it online" in a very rude tone. I asked her her name and she said "Sara". I asked her for her full name and she would not give it to me. I have never been treated so badly at a place of business in my life.

    I went in to return a few items and when I got to the register, the employee picked up the Extended Warranty Plan that I was returning with my item, and mouthed something to the manager and then they gave each other this look. It was very awkward and weird. Well the employee starts to write on my receipt and then she said that they didn't have $53 in cash in the register, and that I could come back at a later time. They didn't even open the register! How do you not have at least $100 in cash in the register especially at 12 in the afternoon? I could not believe what I was hearing. I rather drive 20 more miles to get to the next closest store than go back to that one.

    It was the most unprofessional and rude experience I've ever had. What if I was purchasing an item for $20 and only had a $100 bill? I know they had to have been lying but for what reason? I no idea. I'm in such disbelief over that and very angry. The manager was there when I purchased the item also, and even then was she bitter and unfriendly. How she still has a job there is a mystery to me.

    I have bought many pairs of clippers and trimmers from Sally Beauty Supply. I just bought a pair of Wahl peanut clippers. I have owned them a few months. While trimming up a client's neckline, they became very hot on the skin. Also bought a pair of Andis outliner trimmers. When I received them it sounded like there was something loose in the housing. They have not worked well. So I bought the same pair again with the intent to return the first pair. Well, I got busy and missed the time period to return the first pair. The second trimmers came and I have had problems with them also. Only used a few times and the blade stops moving and they are not trimming the hair.

    I have spent a lot of money for these supplies. I am wondering if they are refurbished and Sally is selling them as new as I have not had luck at all. I have had similar pairs with trimmers bought over the years. But it just started dawning on me that maybe it's Sally Beauty that's the problem. Has anyone else had similar problems? It is so frustrating. I mean their prices are good. But obviously now I am feeling that I do not want to purchase these products at Sally's anymore.

    I went into store to get a leave in Big and Sexy and they said OK but they did not have that BUT HAD THE SAME PRODUCT AS A MIST. Then they went on to a hard sell about hair extensions on sale that were clip on and I am almost 60 with a bad back and the color was off so I said I would take them but go home and think about it and call my hairdresser and I WENT BACK NEXT DAY AT OPENING and had not even taken bag into home and they said they had a no return policy. I then contacted corp. and was treated like dirt.

    I WENT BACK TO STORE AND the girl who sold them to me was there and I gave the unopened box to her and left them and she filled out a form BUT DID NOT GIVE ME A COPY. I waited for a call from a manager but never got one..I went back to store today, Thursday and they said they "were opened and knotted" and I have no idea what that means and I never touched the box. I said, "well then YOU SOLD ME USED EXT. OR YOU OPENED THEM OR SOMEONE IN THE STORE DID." I filed with the Attorney General and you. They do not post ANY SIGN VISIBLE TO CUSTOMERS or where it can be seen nor do they all sales final. They put it on the receipt AFTER THE FACT and the ext. are locked on the wall and you could not read the back of box and it is NOT VISIBLE AND THEY ALL KNOW THEY HAVE NO RETURN POLICY and this is over $100.

    Hi! I have been using curling iron for over 20 years. For over 10 years I used my Conair curling iron which I finally decide to replace with Sally's Ion 1-1/2" curling iron over a year ago. My Conair curling iron never got sick of me I decided to retire and replace with Ion Curling Iron. Last Thursday, I washed my hair and was about to curl my hair and I noticed my curling iron didn't get hot so I started checking to see if my outlet is working okay. Then I discovered that my electric wire had literally came out and that got me really scared. I could have gotten electrocuted if I didn't pay mind to it. I had spent over $50 on this product and certainly was not expecting to last less than year. I am very disappointed with their product. I am not sure who to contact regarding this matter. But I would definitely re-think before purchasing a new one. I started using Perfecter and I love it.

    I am a salon owner and have used Sally's for 25 years. My assistant was sent to the nearest Sally's to purchase a trimmer blade. Mine dropped on the floor and needed replacing. I sent her with the proper blade requirement. She did not know so the clerk assisted her by giving her the wrong blade. I fixed the blade, old blade, to work. I went to the store with the purchased blade two weeks later since I am very busy and could not get there any sooner. The clerk told me the store policy is not to accept returned blades even if they have not been opened, gave me a number to call for the main office, so I did same story except I could call the manufacturer.

    Sally's is an authorized representative of Andis and is responsible for the products they sell. They need to be responsible to the consumer of those product, or else why should we go to them to buy instead of purchasing online cheaper and with better customer service. I explained to the Sally's main office that they have lost my business forever, good bye after 25 years as a professional customer. I will not recommend them to my customers either. Guess I'll order online and make a little profit from it as well. They Kissed a very profitable customer good bye for their $22.00 blade and a bad return policy. As a stylist and salon owner they need to imagine the money they blew off for this.

    This store refuses to comply with the stated product return policy printed on their receipts. The ESOL women in this store display an unappealing attitude, i.e. a 'perfunctory' hello, without even a hint of eye contact. They fail to make eye contact with those who do not speak in a foreign language to them. Often their demeanor is friendly to foreigners, and cool, avoidant, neglectful and disrespectful of Americans (aka non ESOL/foreigners). I doubt this behavior, lack of responsible and professional service is what the founder of Sally Beauty Supply had in mind when they founded this company.

    Today I took my two daughters, ages 2 and 6 into Sally's in Gilbert, Arizona off of Germann to purchase nail polish. My 6-year-old daughter was walking ahead of me. She walked over to the nail polish, picked one up and said, "Look mommy, pink." The lady working there was next to her helping another customer looked over at my daughter and told her to put it down so it does not break. I looked at her and said, "It's okay, she's a professional," in a joking manner. The lady responded rudely, "I've seen the professionals drop and break them too." Then I asked my daughter to put it down and said, "Let's go." I did not want to spend my money in a place that treated us so poorly. My daughters are mixed. I hate to think that it had anything to do with color but I can't think of any other reason that she would have treated us so poorly.

    I decided to take my daughters back into the store to purchase the nail polish and a few other items. So I walked out the store thinking I am not going to spend my money in this place. Then I thought, "No, I am going to go back inside and purchase the nail polish for my daughter. I'm not going to let her ruin our day together." I went back inside with my daughters browsing the store. I did not say anything to the lady the whole time I was in there. As I was browsing the store, I hear whispering so I walked around the corner and there she stood with security. I asked why she called security. She said she was gonna ask me to leave. I said why. Security asked us to leave. I said why?

    He did not respond either. I said, "Can I have your name?" He said No... So I asked the employee for her name and the number for customer service. She gave it to me. The security asked me if I have all the information I need. I replied yes. Then my daughters and I were walking out the door as the security followed behind us like we were criminals. I took a picture of him because he would not share his name with me. He then followed me and took a picture of me. I kept walking as he continued to follow me talking to me. I said to him, "I'm trying to leave like you asked me to." Then I went to my car with my daughters and left. I called Corporate, was told they will contact me in the next 24 to 72 hours. So that is where we stand right now. I am a regular at Sally's and can't believe we were treated so horribly. I can see if my daughter was playing in the nail polish or tearing things up. She just simply picked it up to show it to me. She cried on the way home :(

One item in particular that I was looking for was blocked by one of the employees unloading a basket and she refused to move the basket out of courtesy, which then I was forced to ask her to move. I was in the store 20 minutes before I had to ask for assistance. The item I needed was out of stock on the shelf. I then asked when they would be placing it on the shelf. The employee responded with "We just got our shipment in," which was late. As a good customer service representative she could have offered to open the box while I was in the store. Instead, I had to ask, "What time will you open the box?" and she told me to come back in an hour.

    At this point I gave up on trying to give them chances to redeem themselves and went to another location (store #3213), which was absolutely amazing. I received all the help I needed, and more.

After I asked for her assistance she gave me a bothered look.

    She was very rude. I ended up choosing whatever I wanted without her help. When it came time to pay, my husband was so upset that he decided not to buy the clippers. I paid for my things and she still had a very rude attitude. Nonetheless, I left very upset and without saying thank you! I didn't get her name because she didn't have a badge with name. She is tall light complected Mexican gal and was wearing glasses. The other cashier was giving another young lady the same or worse attitude. I love good customer service and would've back there; however, in this case it’s different. Those young girls should not be working there!

    I purchased a handheld Gold Hot professional 1,600-watt styler dryer on Friday, 12-11-2009. Upon using it, one of the attachments, which is a comb, kept falling off. I had to resort to my old blow dryer (I have an older version of this blow dryer, which I bought at Sally some 15 years that is still working), except that two of the attachments (combs) are missing some teeth. I decided to purchase this new one to replace my older version - same brand, just a more updated version.

    I decided to return the item since it was not performing up to my satisfaction. I needed a return, not an exchange, or refund. What are the chances that if I exchange it for another on, I will not experience the same inconvenience? I took it to another Sally (not the store it was originally bought at) and decided to return it. I would have taken it back to the store it was originally bought at, but I was passing by another store (where I always shop at) and decided to do the return at this location. I was informed by the sales associate that I had to come back and see the manager the next day because they were not allowed to return electronic items they can exchange or do a refund. They were, however, allowed to refund the item.

    On the back of the sales receipt, it clearly states their Product Return Policy: “Except for Special restrictions stated below, you must have an original receipt dated within 60 days of purchase for refund or exchange. All refunds made to original form of payment. Special Restrictions: Hair, Body Jewelry, Fashion Earrings, Ear Piercing, Blades. All sales final. Electrical Appliances and Shears: No returns or in-store credit without original receipt dated within 60 days of purchase.”

    The blow dryer was purchased on Friday and returned on Tuesday, so that was just four (4) days, and I had my original receipt. They refused to accept my return. The next day I called the 1-800-ASK-SALLY and spoke to the Customer Service Representative Candice and told her what happened, and if their return policy had changed, then it would not be applicable to me because on my receipt it was different. I was informed that it had not been changed. She then contacted the Store Manager Kathy and told her that I will be stopping by to return the item that evening, Wednesday, 12-16-2009, between 5:00pm and 8:00pm.

    Upon trying to return this item again, I was told that I was unable to. I made three (3) trips to the store just to make a return/refund for a simple item. If their store policy has changed, then they need to have it in writing on the back of their receipt. I was informed by the CS Manager Candice that the Store’s (Sally) policy has not changed. At this particular store, the manager is the one informing her sales associates that they cannot do refund, only exchange or store credit. If this policy is the same at all Sally’s, I am not sure because I have never done a return before. I can, however, assure you that I just purchased about $70.00 worth of hair products between November 30 and to date. I will be looking for those receipts and will be returning all the unused products, and henceforth, my money will not be spent at Sally's. I will gladly take my cash somewhere else whose return policy is not conflicting.

    I was in the store and noticed that a blow-dryer and crimper was tape together as a combo deal. When I asked the sale associate lady about the products to be 19.95 for both, she that was not the price for both that she made a mistake and did not put the right price on the products. On one box had a price of 19.95 and the other box had no price listed. There was other combos taped together that one box had 79.95 and the other box had no price listed on it. The store refuse to give me the listed price of 19.95 for the combo products that was price with a price sticker. The flier only lists, free gold-n-hot crimper with purchase of this dryer with gold barrel 1875w with coupon. At the bottom it has a number 444137 Expires 12/31/09. Then the associate came over and ripped off the tag and said she made a mistake and I could not get the price. I had her call a supervisor and who ever she talked to said she could not give the price and I call the corporate number 1-800-777-5706 and they said all they could do for me is to give me the price of 39.99 for the products

    A couple days ago my friend told me about a shampoo called Shimmering lights. She said they sold it at Sally's and it will keep the color bright and natural if I used it for highlights. I had my teacup chihuahua with me in her carrier when i went to the store. I looked to see if there was a sign that said "no pets allowed" and there wasnt. I figured since food wasnt sold there,it wouldnt be a big deal since i had a carrier anyway. Most stores let small animals inside, if they're inside a carrier. I go in and go straight to look for the shampoo. I noticed a store associate looked at me and followed me. I was getting the shampoo and conditioner to pay for them, when the girl came from behind me. she said pets werent allowed in the store. I told her there was no sign outside that said "No Pets allowed' and that my dog wasnt harming anyone, she was in a carrier. She was very rude and didnt let me pay for what i went for. I go leave my dog in the car and went back in the store. i've just gotten my new credit card and used it to pay for my items. the same girl was standing there next to the cashier. I felt like she was watching me. I handed my card to the cashier and it wouldnt go through. The girl that had kicked me out for having my dog told me it was declined. I told her Ive just gotten the card and i havent even used it yet, but it was activated. She said they werent going to take it. but the cashier decided to try it again, and it went through. Their registers were processing the cards a little slow, as what the cashier was saying.

    On November 12, 2008 at approximately 8:30 pm. My niece and I entered the store to purchase beauty supplies. When we arrived at the counter to cash out a cashier by the name of Dorthy pushed my niece's products to the side and called the caucasian lady behind us to the front and began to cash her out. When I questioned the cashier on why we were being skipped. She then told the lady she would be right with her and then began cashing us out. As she was cashing us out she began talking to the caucasian customer about me and my niece. Saying that we don't live out there and that she hate that the store has to carry black hair products because she hates dealing with blacks. I was so upset me and my niece began to leave the store. I then stopped and told her to take the products back and give me my money back. she had refused and told us to get out of the store. I had to call the police to get my money back. This woman should be fired for how she treated us. It is clear that Dorthy has a problem dealing with people of color.
