In Knew I Was a Product Junkie When...

I Knew I Was a Product Junkie When...

*In a conversation with my girlfriend I used the words "Line of Demarcation"

*On payday Friday's my first stop is the BSS [and I already have a mental list of what I'm getting]

*I can differentiate between the slip from CON, Humectress & Humecto

*I started carrying a tiny jar of Elasta QP Recovery in my purse for emergency application (gotta take care of that "line of demarcation" right?)

*I saw 1/2" of new growth in 3 weeks and a tear came to my eyes

*I stopped my stylist dead in her tracks to ask her "Does that have mineral oil or petroleum in it?????" [And she looked at me like ]

*I started this thread

In Knew I Was a Product Junkie When...

*I compiled a product wish list on my blackberry (and update it regularly)
*I shopped in the beauty aisle in the 99cent store (got V05 99cents)
*Every time I go into CVS, Walgreens, Duane Reade, Target I am in the hair section
*I have more shampoo than I can use in a life timea--and i hardly use shampoo anymore

I knew I was a PJ when:

*I bought 4 conditioners at Walmart last night (Suave Biobasics, Sleek, Awapuhi, and that damn Herbal Essences that everyone was raving about)
*I started going to the BSS at least twice a week (sometimes I just go to read labels )
*I had to put myself on a PRODUCT BUDGET that I'm trying HARD to stick to
*I had no problem ordering stuff that goes on a horse's behind
*I saw something new at the BSS and would not buy it because I had to check with the ladies of the LHCF first

Every morning in the staff meeting - instead of taking notes, I hand write my regimen and products to research and try.

I knew I was a PJ when:

I had no more room in my bathroom or linen closet for products. I had to buy rubbermaid containers for the overflow.

I also keep a wish list of products I would like to purchase in 3 places

My male friend of 20 years came to town for a visit, he was looking in my cabinets for some peroxide, discovered my hair product stash and said girl you sure do have alot of hair stuff, are you doing hair on the side now?

My son wanted to give me a gift certificate to Trade Secret for Mother's Day

I could name a few others but I am too ashamed.

My name is Nikki1971 and I am a PRODUCT JUNKIE!!!

 

[scoobygirl]

I knew I was a PJ when:

I got light-headed entering the asian BSS
When I became on a first name basis with the people at Trade Secret
When I started emailing hair companies to give them advice

I thinking I'm getting better though. Now if I can only get my skincare PJism under control I'll be set

I knew I was a PJ when:

I curled up in bed with my new leave in conditioner so I could read over the label again and again.

DITTO!!!!!!!

~~My friends come over and are in awe at my extensive collection of supplies. They proceed to ask for hair consultations.

~~My play time funds are not the way they used to be

~~I'm on LHCF looking for new products to purchase every single day.


My name is Browndilocks, and I am a Product Junkie. I'm trying to gather up the courage to liquidate my entire estate and use only the products that truly work for me. SIGH

I do this from time-to-time too. It's great at keeping me fully alert during a staff meeting.

LOL! it's nice to know i'm not the only one who does that!

 

[curlygirl493]

I rather buy some new hair care products than some new shoes/clothes...

 

[Starian]

Instead of taking a newspaper with me when I'm on the toilet, I usually have a bottle of shampoo or conditioner in my hand, reading the label. I know, ewww, right?

 

[LABETT]

I am doing better with buying new products plus I dont have any more storage space.
