Personally... I would just try ordering it online as a customer out of curiosity.... do it via cashback site, if it works you keep your customer happy. If not you haven't lost anything. No harm in double checking eh

I'm on C10 and so far not a single bit of interest in the new hair colours despite my promotion and the pages in the brochure. Guess I must have the 'wrong' customers for home hair colouring.

Thanks for reminding me, I've yet to use the free hair colour I got (I just haven't had the time) but was asked in work what the colours were like to use and what condition they left your hair in...guess what I'm doing tonight Good job I don't work Mondays, if you could see me now you'd wonder how the hell I manage to sell avon looking the way I do :rotfl:

I've tried at a carboot before, and to be honest we didn't sell enough to make it worthwhile. I'd hoped I could get a few reps, or customers for either myself or my reps, which would have made it worthwhile, but as for selling avon - nah! We'll be doing one last one this summer sometime, to sell the last of our books and other carp lol, and will sell of some of my stash v cheap (all stuff that's either old now, or I got for free anyway), so long as I get some money for it then I'll be happy!

Just doing myself an order with Vistaprint for some more business cards and other bits (all free just pay postage!) - and noticed they now do their own loyalty cards. You can get 250 for free, just pay postage - much better value than the ones Avon do x

I've two in stock but a bit late now to get them to you in the post (and, of course, you won't make much once you take postage into a/c).

Your best bet is to see if your SL can help or even other reps in your area maybe?

I did mine medium copper brown; the colour has stayed in so far through three washes. my hair is really really this and curly and there was more than enough for mine. Coverage pretty good, not at all drippy and didn't smell too strong. Hasn't really altered the condition of my hair, it normally comes out lush and soft when I have it done at the hairdresser but it really didn't alter the condition at all, for better or worse.

I'm doing mine *looks at box* Deep Red Mahogany and I'm naturally ash blonde :rotfl: Most of my hair is various shades of brown, I'm just trying to grow out some almost black hair - only 6" or so to go :rotfl: and then I'm going to gradually go a shade lighter each time I buy a colour. Stripy hair by Xmas anyone? :rotfl::rotfl:

Lol I remember a time when my hair was blonde, brown and black all in one go!

Thats what mine is now! I have 2" ash blonde roots, 4" 'mahogany glow' (Schwarzkopf Live which I only ever buy on offer!) and then another 6" or so of blacky brown :rotfl:

I just checked my invoice and 7 bottles of Skin so Soft are out of stock - how annoying! Anything else I'd accept but SSS is like avon's "thing"!

A girl ordered 5 from me this campaign and I just had to text her to say they're OOS and I won't be able to get them. This was her first order and probably her last after that! Grr.

Hi which Skin So Soft fragrance and products was this ? As I am on the dreaded mailplan O and have some SSS stuff to order and really hope all my stuff turns up.
I was really disapointed when had things not available in my first order especially as they were all for one customer from my territory who had spent nearly £60 with me and suprise suprise as had to let her down with some of her stuff last time, no order this time.
