Are we allowed to buy staples if we run out??

 

[TonicaG]

This is really a good challenge and I should desperately sign up. I'm so bad, I should probably seek counseling for this awful habit of HAVING to buy hair products I know I don't need... My hair is healthy and growing really well, but if somebody on this board recommends a product, I'm at the beauty supply store looking for it... If I could redeem money for the unnecessary products that I've purchased, I could sit at home for about two months and chill!

...pray for me please, I'm so pitiful.

Please sign a sistah up...

Welcome Keshieshimmer, TonicaG, LivinLaughinLovin, glam-.Thanks for joining.


Danigurl18: You may replace staples because those are like gold to us, but you must find ways to use up all the other STUFF you have accumulated that are not staples.

I need to be on this challenge with you all. Lets see...
1) How many bottles of shampoo, conditioner, oil, etc you have? About 30, after cleaning out the stuff I absolutely didn't want.
2)Any creative uses you've found to help you polish them off. Mixing, using conditioners not intended for leaving in as a leave in.
3) What you want to buy to replace the bottles you've polished off (your wish list)
1. Keracare Humecto 5lb(yea baby) 2. Nioxin Follicle booster 3. Hairveda products

Phew... this is ridiculous. It takes me forever to use up shampoo because I only use it every 2 weeks or so. and I rarely straighten, so the serums and things don't get used much either. Maybe I will give the straightening products to my sister.

I gave away some products to a friend with a daughter a few weeks ago, so my list would have been worse last month.

Here's one for ya'll. I got bored today and was thinking that I really want to get to BSL by the end of 2008. I am already using MT. I have1/2 jar of Lenzi's Request so I added 1/2 tube of MN and some emu oil to make another topical growth aid. I read all the MN threads and the raves. So I will alternate this with the MT to USE IT UP.

That's not crazy. Earlier this year I took some MN, a dab of MTG and some Lenzi's and mixed it all up and used it...Or maybe it just means I'm crazy too
