Use Up Your Stash 2012 - Session 2

So I just found out that I should no longer prepoo overnight because it just opens up my cuticles to much (to the point of roughness) so now ill have to tweak my reggie a bit and that probably means ill end up using my conditioners even slower:( now im down to doing 1CW and 1 wash and DC a week! My HE LTR is still 3/4th full and I have about 4 or 5 cw conditioners to open and use.
 
My saturday got all turned around so I missed the hair show. I could have still gone at 5 pm but I was like why spend $20 when I'm getting all my hair cut off next week :lol:

But I did stop by The Vitamin Shoppe for some vitamins. And I picked up a bottle of the Natures Gate Herbal Daily Conditioner. I want to try it because you can get a liter for less than $20. So if I like it I may make that my staple cowash DC.
 
Going to wash my hair tonight. Doubt I will use anything up but I will get to clean my hair. LOL
I have decided I will leave my hair out for a while. Half wigging will be my option for now. :gring:
 
Well this month was a bust. I only used up the last of the Redken All Soft Heavy Cream and bought five more things. No hair product purchases for me next month.

Does the All Soft Heavy Cream come in a jar? I have been using my liter of All Soft as a DC
 
So I used the Ojon Last night :lick: my hair was so soft washing it today with my Wen *as usual but with an extra umph. I know as if that wasn't the case. I could tell a difference for the better. I am sitting with a mix of Alter Ego Garlic Conditioner and Proclaim Argan Oil Hydrating mask on my head, Afterward I will be plating it and smacking on a half wig :)

Taking the boys to Chuckie Cheese to get out the house. :grin:

My hair felt so crunchy from the henna :( I put my newly bought As I am Moisture Milk on it and it solved that problem. Yet..... 2 days later my hair roots felt soft as butter but the ends which I put oil and other stuff on felt hard again :(

I will open up my Wen Vanilla Mint next Week :woohoo2: say what LOL
I am excited about that :yep: that isn't a use up product at all, but I am still excited I get to try a new flavor. :grin:

Do you henna down to the ends? Have you ever tried just putting henna on the new growth, or 1/4 or 1/2 of the strand?

After my hair started getting more brittle that is what I started doing.

I am going to try doing this. Once I finish with the roots I ususally go down the whole length. I will be able to use less just doing the roots. Thanks

Cool. I hope it works for you. If you are using it for color, I know that henna can fade over time. So it may be that you may want to do the whole strand every 4th time you henna.

But I was covering gray, and I noticed that once it was covered the henna didn't fade. I wasn't able to tell my gray hair from my regular hair.

I am living breathing proof that there is a cure for PJism! I havent bought ANYTHING in a month:) and the best part is I dont even have the urge to:)
 
Used up Trader Joe's Tea Tree Tingle; I have 5 left. I will probably buy 2 more in the next week or so. I want to stockpile so I don't run out.

Ogoma, the poo or condish? I'm considering using the condish as a co wash conditioner. If it's the condish, does it have slip?

So starting in December I am getting the gift card that will be used for hair purchases only! If I don't spend it in 12 months, I use it as I please but it will be reupped with another allowance of $$$ to have for allowed hair supplies :)
 
I finished Claudie's gel, and komaza califia leave in. Claudie's gel was great,but it is a small size for a lot of money, gotta find something large size, and cheaper.

That's a good idea.
 
My hair really doesn't like many low priced products :nono: She's just picky, picky, picky.

So I tried the Natures Gate Daily Herbal Conditioner. I loved using it but it did nothing for my hair. So will try to drop it off at my neighbors house so she can use it on her kids. I gave her a big box of stuff earlier which I thought she would say it was too much. :lol: Nope she said she used some and that the conditioners worked well on the girls hair.

She said she used one conditioner and it just tangled her hair up. She didn't remember the name but I bet it was that Yes to Carrots.

I want to try some more botanical conditioners but will stay away from the low end stuff. And won't bother with Nature's Gate at all. :nono:
 
@faithVA

Well I hope my hair grows up to be the Diva your hair is :lol:
 
No way I am tryna tune her down some. :lachen:

I must say though, she behaves so nicely. Right now Ojon is killing it.... I usually get lets say 80 hairs out for the week at wash day :yep:

I got maybe about 20 hairs this time. I was like :shocked: at it.

I am skimpy with using my products so right now. Dudley's PCa and DRC, Alter Ego Garlic Conditoner, and Large 14.7 oz Ojon (will pick this up with my hair card) is going to last me atleast 3 years a piece.

The others last a fairly decent time.
