I dont know if this has been discussed already on this board. Forgive me and point me in the right direction if it has.
What is the longest time you have used a product/supplement for?
How long do you use it before you switch?
Why do you switch? It stopped working? Discontinued? You heard about or saw something better?
A few of my staple products have been discontinued but that only counts for maybe 1/8 of the stuff in those boxes.
The only product I have used continously over the last 4-5 years has been Pantene conditioner as a leave in. (The Smooth and Sleek used to be called Dry Damaged Hair Conditioner) I have tried other stuff for a brief moment but I always go back to this.
Gels I have switched up several times especially when trying the CG routine but stick with VO5 or Vital Care.
My curl activator has been discontinued so I stocked up but have been looking for a replacement for when my last 4 jars are done.
Rinse out Conditioners I pretty much have stuck with Suave through the years. I started off with Strawberry, then Coconut and now I use the Moisturising. It is cheap and I go through a lot of conditioner. Almost a bottle every week.
Deep conditioners I just got into this past year b/c I have been straightening my hair more than before and I need to replenish and repair it. I have stuck with GPB and Ion Moisturising from Sally's.
Vitamins - I pretty much just take the Horsetail Grass (when I remember). Been takingthis for the last 4-5 years as well. I tried others like EPO and Ester C and got weird side effects.
Shampoo - I dont even have the time to get into all that I have tried....VO5, Shaikai, Suave, California Baby, Ouidad, Jason Naturals, the list goes on and on... and I have no valid reason for switching up like I do.
Styling when straight is a whole different animal and I think that contributed to the bulk of my products since I wear my hair curly most of the time. I am always looking for something to give it shine, remove frizz, let it lay properly, straighten without damaging ...you know that miracle product...OK now I am babbling...
anyone else?
