It's a 10! -- knock off??

[robot.]

i was in Bed, Bath, and Beyond a few weeks ago when i stumbled across a part of the store that had shampoo, conditioner, soap, lotion, brushes, vitamins, condoms, deoderant... ERRYTHANG!

now, i don't know if you guys have a Bed, Bath, and Beyond, but they typically sell towels, kitchen appliances, picture frames, bedclothes, etc... NOT health and beauty stuff! it was by far, the coolest BB&B i'd ever been to.

anyway, i'd spotted this beauty on one of the shelves:

packaging looks awful familiar, right? it's called Top 10 Miracles, obviously a knock off of It's a 10 Miracle Leave-In. almost the same coloring and bottles too (although obviously less fancy than the original).

only now i realize i should've looked at the ingredients and the prices, but they've got to be more affordable if they're in BB&B (not to mention a knockoff). but they head a leave-in, deep conditioner, and spray heat protectant (which i don't think the It's a 10 has).

just thought i would bring it to your attention.

here is the It's a 10 website, so you can compare: http://www.itsa10haircare.com/its_a_10.html

here are the only sites i could find on the knockoffs...

leave in: http://store.otcretail.com/p404079.html
heat styler: http://store.otcretail.com/p404277.html
deep conditioner: http://store.otcretail.com/p404178.html

the prices are way more agreeable than the It's a 10. next time i go back, i'll be sure to take a look at the ingredients.

Is this product only available at bb&b that have the beauty shop in it?

 

[robot.]

I didn't even know there were beauty shops in some.

I would guess anyone that had a beauty/hygiene section.

Wait a minute!!! Condoms in BB&B erplexed That just sounds so out of place

is it near the straighteners and blowdryers?

is it near the straighteners and blowdryers?

no, this was an entire section by itself. it wasn't appliances so much as it was stuff you would find at Target - shampoo/conditioner aisle, soap, lotion, etc.

 

[chelleypie810]

ooohhh ok. Hm I guess I could check it out, but when I went looking for organix at mine I couldn't find them so they probably won't have these either

i didn't see it.

oh just pass me a tissue ill wipe away my tears

yeah i found it in pathmark! i nearly KILLED myself when i left cause the deep treatment was only...$6!!!! Then when I went on folica I saw the its a 10 one and saw that nearly $30 price tag and I swear I was soo mad I didn't get it! Then I didn't see it. Then one day when I was shopping without the SO I saw it again and nearly broke my neck running over only to realize it said TOP 10 MIRACLES. I was likeerplexed.....oh well! I'll buy it anyway!

i wonder how similar the ingredients are? because 30 bucks is wayyyy too steep, especially when you got a cheapie version right around the corner.

I bought the heat protectant because it was cheap from Pathmark when they had a sale. I dont remember the ingredients but i dont think it was bad. It also made my hair feel soft after blow drying with it


Oh yeah its called Freemans top 10 Miracles

They do have a papaya and mango shampoo i might want to try

Freeman's, like the facial masks?

And thanks for the mini-review.

I love the leave in conditioner. I haven't tried the pricier version so I don't know how they compare.
