Not sure. You said MHC Reconstructor was just so-so. :perplexed

You might want to reconsider that and go to the "Use Up Your Stash Thread":yep:

This title is some-what misleading and may not be the best place for you if you are seriously trying to do what you said you were trying to do.:look:

Gurl....Ain't nothin' over here but some Hard-Core Crazy Buying PJ's. :look:

I'm just over here keeping them company....:lol:

Hey....Just tryna' help a Sista' Out.:lol:

Froreal3, Beamodel,

This is not reduce yoour stash thread:look: we tried initaily :lachen: but pj couldn't do it, i think we lost alot of folks because they really wanted to reduce. I get caught up in the pjism but i learned how to pace myself and buy what i really need but still converse with my girls. We been here since 2009:grin: You can't stay away because its sharing informative thread:grin: love it.

You are right girl. I stay all up in here bc I feel like home in this thread. I'm on a no buy until Blk Friday but after that, I'm getting bck to my PJ ways lol. It's a bad bad habit, but I'm proud of it.

I can say one thing though, my hair has never looked better! :-)
 
Ok, so I'll just chill here and mostly lurk. I definitely need to use up/give away the majority of my stuff before Blk Friday. :yep: Then it's no holds barred! :lol:
 
Froreal3

You'll do better with the Buying. But it does take time. Just take it one day at a time.:yep:

As I said in another Thread, it's definitely a 'struggle' to overcome.:look:

Now my goal is to just buy 'less'. I can remember at one time have 10-12 Sitrinillah's, 15-20 Marie Deans, 20-30 Bear Fruit Hair's......(and that's just a few).

I've stopped all that craziness and just take a more sensible approach to my PJ-ism.:yawn:

I enjoy being a PJ - but I've started to set limits.
 
IDareT'sHair & Froreal3 I agree. It's a struggle but I too have scaled back alot. Now I'm down to just 2 backups as opposed to 6 and up. I now mostly shop for unique items to try and only purchase new items during a sale.

On that note T I caved and got 2 oils from KeraVeda. That deal is too good to pass up.

I know how we do Ms. Curly.:hug2: We'll do greater later:lol:

Which one(s) did you get & what scents?

On that back up note: I still keep about 5-6 back ups:look: but not 10-12.:blush:

Froreal3 Hi! I've given a lot of stuff away,used up a bunch of products....Only keeping the best of the best in my stash....Occasionally,trying a few new items here & there..

*Work in progress,but worth it.

Happy Hair Growing!
 
@Lita

I agree to Ms. Lita. It's definitely worth it.:yep:

And I love trying 'new' things and hearing about new things out there.:lick:

I've enjoyed spending every dime.:lol: :lol: :lol:

It's a Hobby just like any other hobby. Some folks are into Electronics, Cameras, etc.....I look at it like any other hobby.

I have a friend that loves to 'Thrift'.

Not my thing, but he likes it.:nono:

He's as bad as we are with his thriftin' as we are with Products.

So every weekend, we ask each other: "What Did YOU Buy?":lol:

I tried to get some Darcy's (pumpkin con) from curl mart yesterday & it was sold out..Wanted to re-up...Have 1 bottle left..This is my staple..

Happy Hair Growing!
 
IDareT'sHair My Dad is into electronics,Mom likes yard sales/shoes..We all have something..lol...

Happy Hair Growing!
 
Lita & IDareT'sHair I also enjoy trying new things. With my backups I tend to have more multiples for DC's and LI's but not so many in the other categories.

From KeraVeda I got the brahmi oil and the fenugreek oil both in Japanese cherry blossom.
 
@Lita curlyhersheygirl

That Boy will thrift all weekend. Eewww not my thing. :spinning:

I told him we should set a monthly amount, me for products him for all that durn thriftin'. :ohwell:

He definitely outspends me every weekend. He will thrift all day/weekend.:yawn:

I could never see the "Fun" in that.:nono:

He's always like: "What are you doing? On that Hair Blog?" and I say: "Where Are You? At the Thrift Store?"

And we both Crack Up.:lol:
 
Lita curlyhersheygirl

And 'basically' we only really ever go PJ-Hog Wild-Crazy, is when there is a Sale. :lol:

Granted, the Sales haven't slowed down since Mothers Day and I've been on the spend-train since then too.:nono:

And All these New Fabulous Vendors poppin' up all over the place hasn't helped either.
 
Hey y'all! It's been a minute!

I'm sure y'all already know about the Shescentit 20% off Labor Day Sale: ENDOFSUMMER

I had to hop on it, as I haven't used her products since 2011. I ordered:

Fortifying Hair Mask 16oz
Avocado Conditioner 16oz
Marshmallow Hair Cream 9oz
Pumpkin Seed Defrizzer 4oz
Kiwi Kiss Hair Butter 9oz

I haven't used these specific products before. When I first used SSI, I used the Honey Rinse Conditioner, Okra Reconstructor, Banana Brulee, and Macadamia Fixing Gel with success (with the Honey Rinse and Okra being my favs). I decided to try some of her other products this go round.

IDareT'sHair That's so funny :lol: At least he can understand the struggle. He sounds like my dad he thrifts all weekend too and in the summer he adds the flea markets. He has a barn at the back of his house full of stuff :nono: I keep telling him I don't want to see him on "hoarders buried alive" :lol:
 
curlyhersheygirl

Gurl....that boy got so much mess it ain't funny. He's addicted. (I got my nerves).:lol:

But um..yeah..that durn Thriftin' Flea-Marketin' mess ain't no joke either. :nono:

He's tried to N/B but failed repeatedly.:lol:

I told him to set a limit per pay-day. And who am I tryin' to give advice.:look:..:lol:
 
@curlyhersheygirl @Lita

Now I will admit, he did get a Brand new Dyson DC-40 still in the Box for $40 bucks.

And a Nutri-Bullet for $20 bucks and a new Dell Laptop or Desk Top for about $60-$70.
 
Thanks y'all. It was about time I splurged a little on my hair. I've been stuck at MBL for over a year *hangs head in shame*. I gotta get back on my hair game.
