The Best Black Friday Hair Shopping Tips

Black Friday is almost here, which means the countdown to the biggest sale of the year has begun! Navigating Black Friday, both online and in-store can be difficult. There’s too much going on and too many sales at stake to just “wing it”, nowadays you’ve got to have a game plan! Let Perfect Locks provide you with the tips you need to snag all the best deals.

For Online Shoppers:

1. Create a wishlist: Wishlists are great because they allow you to keep track of all of the items you are interested in. You can even share it with friends and family so they know exactly what to get you, at a great price!
2. Sign up for rewards programs: Rewards programs are pretty great all year round, but Black Friday is when these programs benefit you the most! Some benefits to signing up for rewards programs like our VIP and VIPro annual subscription program include additional discounts, early access to sales! Sign up to become a VIP today!
3. Give us a call: If you cannot make it into the store beforehand, please make sure to give us a call or email so that we may answer any questions you may have regarding the products.
4. Know store policies: Great deals can make you want to buy just about everything in sight. However, it’s important to know the policies of the stores you are purchasing from. Read up on all the policies to make sure you understand everything from shipping, returns & exchanges and anything else that may affect your purchase.
5. Add items to your cart beforehand: Once you’ve made your wishlist and figured out exactly which items you’d like to purchase, add them to your cart! This will save you time once the sale starts because all you’ll have to do is proceed to the checkout to pay for your items.
6. Add order notes: If you are very particular about the color or texture of your hair, it’s important to leave notes on your order so that we may pull the best match possible. Leaving notes like “Tightest curl/wave pattern possible” or “darkest 1B color” will help us pick your perfect bundle!
7. Preorder items: Just because an item is out of stock doesn’t mean you have to miss out on that item or the sale! If an item you want is out of stock, simply select the “preorder” button to take advantage of the deal that day. Take note of how long the wait will be so you know when you can expect the item, once it is back in stock.
8. Know your payment options: Checking out is easy when you know your payment methods! Our online store accepts all major credit cards, debit cards, and Affirm. If you decide to use Affirm, it is best to apply for this financing option ahead of time, so that by the time you are ready to purchase, you are already approved and can proceed with the transaction. Want a faster checkout? Apple Pay, Amazon Pay and PayPal make ordering a breeze!

For In-store Shoppers:

1. Visit the store before Black Friday: Being the first in line on the big day is great, but it won’t help if you can’t decide what you want. You might miss out on sales because you couldn’t figure out if you’d like i-tips or tape-ins better. Instead, visit the store to check out all the items and get help from an associate to decide what you’d like to purchase.
2. Give us a call: If you cannot make it into the store beforehand, please make sure to give us a call or email so that we may answer any questions you may have regarding the products.
3. Get in line early: A lot of stores offer doorbuster deals, which are deals that only last for a limited time or are given to the first few customers. To take advantage of these deals, you must be among the first to arrive.
4. Bring a friend: Waiting in line for hours can get very lonely. Time will pass by much faster if you bring a friend or family member along! They can also work with you to ensure that you are able to get everything on your list. Divide and conquer Black Friday!
5. Know store policies: Great deals can make you want to buy just about everything in sight. However, it’s important to know the policies of the stores you are purchasing from. Read up on all the policies to make sure you understand everything from shipping, returns & exchanges and anything else that may affect your purchase.
6. Know your payment options: Checking out is easy when you know your payment methods! Our showroom accepts all major credit cards, debit cards, and Affirm. If you decide to use Affirm, it is best to apply for this financing option ahead of time, so that by the time you are ready to purchase, you are already approved and can proceed with the transaction.
