We don't run wholesale pricing tiers or minimum order quantities. What exists instead is a licensed-stylist discount of around 20 percent on proof of licence. Ordering more packs gets you more packs, not a different price per pack.
There are no wholesale tiers here
No price breaks at 10, 50 or 100 units, and no minimum order. There is a licensed-stylist discount of around 20 percent on proof of licence, and that is the whole commercial structure. The stylist discount
Bulk in this category usually means a tier table, and we do not have one. That is worth saying in the first screen rather than after a page of copy, because it changes whether this is the right supplier for you.
What follows is the straight version: what we do offer, and how to work out what to keep on a shelf.

Four products, one discount, one pack size. It is a small catalogue and the commercial structure matches it.
Working out what to hold
- Count your regular tape-in clientsThe people actually on a six-to-eight week cycle with you, not everyone who has ever had them.
- Average their sandwich countThirty for fine, up to sixty for thick. Take a realistic middle.
- Work out packs per cycleSandwiches divided by 30, rounded up, times the number of clients.
- Hold one cycle plus a marginEnough for everyone booked in the next six to eight weeks, plus a spare pack. Running out mid-appointment is the thing you're buying against.
- Remover separatelyAbout 30 removals a bottle, which is roughly one full head.
Holding much more than one cycle ties up money in stock that gets no cheaper for sitting there, which is the practical consequence of having no tier pricing.
Storage at volume
- Cool, dry, out of direct sunlight. Not the shelf above the dryers.
- Tabs flat, not stacked under weight, so they do not bond harder to their liners.
- Remover away from heat sources. It is flammable, and a salon has irons running all day.
- Rotate stock so older packs go first, even though we publish no shelf life.
Where this is the wrong supplier
If you need a tier table to make the numbers work at volume, we don't have one and we won't pretend the stylist discount is the same thing.
If you need a larger pack size, 60 tabs is what we make. Three hundred tabs is five packs.
Amazon generic tabs are cheaper per tab and will stay cheaper per tab. What you trade is the matched release with our remover at the next move-up, which is a real thing but it's not a price argument.

- Tape-in extensions, professional. Written for the working stylist: turnaround economics and the four skills that separate professional work.
