where to buy couch roll, wax, paper strips etc - 15-05-07, 10:29 PM

Just wondering where do people buy couch roll, wax, paper strips etc we have been buying direct from a local trader who was very cheap but every month he adds on a little more in less than a year my basic order has gone up by 25% in the last 2 months and the quality is no where near as good as it was.
Thanks

I buy couch roll and waxing strips from salonserve.com

The couch roll is very good value and better quality than more expensive ones I have tried

Wax is another matter though, I probably wouldn't buy this from salonserve as I prefer brand names :-)

I get most of my supplies from Ellisons or Beauty Express. Good quality, good customer service, quick delivery.

Ellisons couch roll may not be the cheapest, but it's very good quality, the softest I've come across.

Get couch rolls from salon serve, wax from hive of beauty, paper strips from sally's.

Me and my friend buy box couch rolls between us so the P&P is cheaper, the other stuff I tend to stock up on at shows as it sometimes VAT free and there is no postage.

At the moment I get mine from Sally's. Once I am fully qualified though I am going to be looking elsewhere, just to compare prices and quality. Sally's at the moment is convenient for me.

Tanks for your help. I have just ordered some things from top to toe beauty prices same as others and no postage over £60 plus you get reward points. I picked up a catalogue at nec beauty uk as well as sienna x spray tanning system.

I use Beauty Express. I haven't used Ellisons although I have their catalogue - only because BE is so quick to delivery and I can order via their website (so I can order at silly times like 10pm etc), so I am happy to stick with them. I have been happy with their customer service too, although some products can take a bit long to get back in stock I have found.

I don't use a local wholesaler because I don't have one nearby. I live on an island and its not big enough to need a specialist beauty wholesaler.
