How did everyone do in February??? I gotta admit... I'm getting antsy now!!

I did buy some Semi di Lino Serum on Ebay. I got a great deal, and my little bottle was getting low, so I had to jump on it!! (I replenished, so don't

me!!!

)

Aside from that I also bought Dudley's PCA Moisturizer, to replace my UBH Moisturizer, which is almost finished. (Which, BTW, was a big mistake, cuz me no likie...

)

Anyone else have any confessions??

 

[CrownnGlori]

I confess that I brought some GPB because Avon didn't have my conditioner in their mag for the first 4 brochures. Come to find out the discontinued it.

Then I realized that even though I had a good amount of products, I didn't want to use those products anymore. Mostly gave them away. I bought Shikai and Amla oil towards the end of the month.
So I guess I'm out......
It was amazing the control I had, It has taught me a thing or 2.
I liked sticking with products my hair loves so I think I have learned my lesson.
Thanks for the help

I bought some braid spray and some oil sheen...this challenge interfered with the braid challenge. Sorry, Lindy....I didn't make it.

 

[TinyT]

Well I have done well, and I haven't bought anything. I have replenished plastic caps, and hair clips for when i wash my hair in sections. But I discovered that after I use alot of the stuff i don't care about. I will stick with mostly kenra, jason naturals, and aubrey. I have found my favorite shampoos, conditoners, leavein's, still working on stuff for when i do a roller set. But anyway, I have narrowed things down. Thanks for the challenge Lindy, I needed it!

 

[Nutmeg]

I got a hooded dryer (after not having one for 4-plus years) and I am getting some products from Profectiv, ONLY because they are responding to an email I sent before the challenge about some Sally's not carrying their full line. Otherwise, I've been good...

And wait, only one more month? I thought we were going 6 months, yes? Did I miss something?

 

[inthepink]

I failed miserably.

And the sad part is the products that I bought are not even currently being used.

 

[aqualung]

I've behaved! I only restocked MSM since I joined the challenge (late) on Feb 2nd. There's nothing new I'm particularly expecting to buy, either...WHERE DID THE LOVE GO?

This challenge is not helping the mini BSS on my shelf, though. I'm just using up my beloved staples while the experimental products that didn't work as well collect dust.

Hi Nutmeg, I'm glad to see you're doing well with your challenge, and Yes, we are going 6 months, but some people were concerned that 6 mos. was too long, so I designated April 1 - April 15 (two weeks) as "CHEAT WEEKS"... So that if there's anything you REALLY feel you HAVE to buy, you can do so at that time without getting a

.

Then we'll continue on until July 1!!

I'm doing a pretty good job of using up some of my stuff, so I MIGHT see if I can continue w/o purchasing anything, even though there are some things I'm dying to try...

Aaaaw.... OK CrownnGlori... I'm glad you learned something from the challenge though!!! Good luck on your hair journey, and DON'T slip back into "Product Junkie Mode"!!!

JenJen and Hairlove!!!!!

Especially you, Hairlove!! Bad Girl!!

JenJen, you're off the hook, cuz I can understand your having to buy new stuff for your braids. Good luck with that challenge!!

Hairlove, do you want to try doing the challenge for this month, or are you out completely??

 

[Nutmeg]

Cool. I'll get some Dove conditioner for co washes during the cheat week.

 

[Tee]

Still going strong! I even discovered some great products (IC Poliser Serum with Aloe and Rusk Sea Kelp Conditioner) in my stash that I had never used!

 

[pooh123]

I restocked on Motions MoisturePlus but I did cheat and get another widetooth comb from Sallys.

I'm going to stick true to the challenge from now on though.
