Had to make a run to Maryland yesterday and stopped at the BL around the corner from my sister's house....and NOTHING!!! They barely even had a health & beauty section and the only Skala they had was the FC. I thought with there being a decent Hispanic population they would carry it

I mean after driving 3 hours they could had at least had more than 4 jars

I guess they don't carry the Jar(sp?) one in this area unless I try the stores that are like 25+miles away

IDT was kind enough to send me some Skala. I just used the fruit cocktail mask and also used the avocado conditioner as a leave-in. The mask made my hair feel like silk. I am under the dryer and will post my results in the morning. Thank you Terri!!!

I found them at a Big Lots in Culver City off of the Sepulveda exit (near LAX)

I picked up 4 bottles of the Ceramide C3 and 1 bottle of Shea Butter. All for $1.

THANKS to the ladies that gave me info on BL with Skala. I'm making a trip on Friday.

Where in Maryland did you find it. Do you (or anyone else) know where to find this line in the DMV (or Brooklyn really)?

 

[chelleypie810]

anyone found the ceramide mask and leave in? if so i'll give you the money to send it to me. oh yea just bought 2 more jaborandi masks =)

I live in the DMV and this morning I found it at the Giant store in Bailey's Crossing (Falls Church area). Only they weren't a freakin' dollar . I looked in the BLs in Woodbridge and they didn't have a single one. So SOME Giants in the DMV has it but not all. HTHs

I think they have it in my city. I will check next week when I drive back. Right now I'm in Memphis visiting family but they dont have much here.

I'm not even in need of new products nor am I am pj but this thread has me wanting some Skala. The price point and quality of ingredients is really compelling - almost seems to good to be true. Of course, there are no Big Lots in NYC and the idea of paying full price is a downer. I wonder if there are any comparable product lines in terms of quality and price (and delectable product names). I'm also curious what Skala's Big Lots offerings are part of business strategy and if this arrangement is sustainable or lucrative. I only want to know this info for market research purposes . *Repeats mantra* I have no need for new products, I have no need...

 

[chelleypie810]

yay my mom bought me the ceramides leave in and condish..she said they didn't have the masque =(

I love your posts - so intelligent and thought provoking!

Other than one of the cheapies (White Rain or Vo5), very few of BL's products are sold at such a low price point. I have searched for products that would be comparable to Skala and the only one with similar products is Sedal. I have not tried Sedal, however a couple of ladies on the forum have (including HijabiFlyGirl) and they were not impressed. I, too, have pondered why BL is able to carry this product for this price, when it is sold for 5 or 6 times as much on Skala's website.

They also have it at AJ Wright, but it is $2.99 and you could actually buy 3 for what they're charging at AJ Wright.

And even that beats what folks are asking on Ebay! $8.49 for the leave in and $7.99 to $9.99 for the cons, poos and masques. Oh, that's right - the shipping is free!

 

[mzsophisticated26]

I tried the fruit cocktail masque on tuesday and it did nothing for my hair. Its thicker than the regular conds but it did not leave my hair soft like the ceramide g3. Sunday i am gonna cowash with the aloe cond to test out.

Are you going to give the FC another try at a later date? Will you keep using it, but add a few things to it? Thanks for your review!

ssooo....should I buy up the big lots condish so i can make a profit on ebay.

 

[Chameleonchick]

Okay I am officially done buying skala for a while. you guys turned me on to it, and I went crazy. I went to another BL today to get more and bought everything except two of each product to be fair to the next woman . LOL I'm done for a while.

It certainly is a thought, but who is crazy enough to pay those prices? Ya'll know I love me some Skala grin, but I ain't paying that much for it!

There are big lots in Long Island, NY. I was visiting a cousin several years ago and she does bulk shopping at BL in Long Island. Try typing Hempstead, NY into the BL Store locator. G'wan get your skala on, gurl

I had seen this line last month and had even picked up a few masks and leave-ins, but as a recovering PJ, I fought the urge . After hearing all of the wonderful raves about Skala, it sparked my curiosity and I stopped by BL the other night and picked up a few things. Aloe shampoo and mask, Shea Butter mask and leave-in, and fruit cocktail mask. Now why did I go and do that? I tried the aloe shampoo and masque along with the shea butter leave in yesterday and I loved it ! Gave me a great wash and go. I've been fighting the urge to go clear the shelves. But I think I'm going to have to... So much for my recovery. Darn yall and this Skala!

:blush3: Thanks! I really appreciate that. Now if only I was more diligent with my typing and proofreading.

Exactly! V05 occurred to me as a comp but even though they have fairly good ingredients, I can understand the price point because the products are watered down and probably cost less to produce. These skala products have good ingredients and seem very substantial - deep conditioners, masks, etc.

Your siggy brings a tear to my eye. A tear equal parts joy and sadness.

Thanks for that info.. I saw they had LI and NJ locations but it's a trek. I just might ride out there. I will not be getting my Skala on though, I'll be getting my market research on. Now that I think about it, I only have half a bottle of AOSHR and 1 jar of hairveda sitrinillah left, so I am due for some more deep conditioners. :scratchch Maybe I'll get my Skala on after all....

I thought she was in Memphis too but she is in Knoxville. Southaven had the Jaborandi condish.

 

[flowinlocks]

Picked up 3 bottles of Shea butter cond. today and another bottle of the Jaborandi. Still trying to find the mask & leave ins in this one and the Aloe. Still haven't found the Avocado formula.

 

[justicefighter1913]

Are you all finding the G3 mask and the avocado products in your locations?

 

[adw425]

I've been to Chicago to visit my family and I just knew I would clean up at Big Lots there, but no such luck. The BL on Cicero at or about 76th only had the ceramides conditioner and masque, which I made my sister buy and she loves it. I have enough of the ceramides so I did not need anymore. The Big Lots in River Oaks had no Skala products at all... I got the ceramides leave-in a couple weeks ago at the Big Lots here on Chamblee-Tucker and that was all they had. I will be over near the Big Chicken tomorrow so I will see what they have this week at the one on Roswell.

 

[flowinlocks]

Nope.

 

[MizzCoco]

Added a few more products to my Skala collection today. This BL didn't have much to choose from, but I did find the avocado shampoo and conditioner, and I got some shea butter masque. The shampoo looks so creamy and moisturizing, I can't wait to try it! I still have 2 more BL in my city so I'm hitting them up when I get off work tomorrow
