Use Up Your Stash 2012 - Session 3

I used up a sample of Alaffia conditioner. Down to 1/4 bottle of the Deva Curl One. And down to 1/4 bottle of the KomazaCare Aloe My Hair Leave-in.

Decided to wait on buying the Hair One Olive Oil. I will pair the As I Am Cleaning Conditioner with the Deva Curl One Conditioner to try to get similar effects until one or both are gone. Then I will buy the Hair One.

Silk Elements MegaSilk Moisturizing Treatment, using this up today!
 
I am going to experiment tomorrow with my styling products. But it looks like As I Am Curling Gel may be a staple for me. It works great on my coils and I used it today to do my very 1st wng and it went well. It's easy to use, not sticky and it hasn't left any white residue on my hair. I think I will put it to the side and use up some of my other gels first. I will try it with another WNG in the spring.

Miss Jessie's Curly Meringue (sample) is GONE!!!!!!
 
I picked up 2 aussie 3 minute miracles and 2 aussie moist.

I finished off the Nioxin Restructuring Masque. My Keracare Twist and define cream is fighting the good fight against me. It's just a little bit left but I can't get it to budge.

Tossing the One N' Only Argan Oil and the Eco styler gel.
 
I have used up SSI Honey Rinse and Darcy's Vanilla Styling Cream. Woo Hoo ! :grin: The down side is BF is this week and I have a list of Staples to reorder and new conds that I would like to try.:ohwell:
 
It's wash day. So used up a little bit more of my Deva Curl One. Using it to balance out the As I Am Cleansing Conditioner worked well. DCd with AO Blue Chamomile. Used Komaza Aloe My Haire Leave-in. I have 1 to 2 more uses of that. Styled with Deva Curl Angel. Not sure how this will hold my coils but will see. I don't like it as much as the As I Am Curling Gel. It doesn't coat my hair as well or have the same slip. But I only have 1 to 2 uses of it left if I use it for my coils.

For November, looking to use up the Komaza Aloe My Hair and the Deva Curl Angel. Have to figure out what styler I will use after that.
 
Used up PM The Conditioner. I thought I had a few more uses left, but apparently not. I had to use water to get out enough to cover the other side of my head. I hate opaque bottles!
 
So proud of myself.... I was in target and picked up that GUD cherry conditioner and that Shea moisturizer lotion but eventually put them both down. Yay!!! Trying to shrink my current supply.
 
Dont ever ask your momma to M&S your hair. This lady had me looking like a grease monkey but at least my *(Lemon Grass) Herbal Essences Long Term Relationship Leave-In Split End Protector is almost gone. Should be gone by this weekend when I wash my hair.

The deep one? I was just neutral about that one until I added oils and honey. Then I really started to enjoy it. It's a possible repurchase for me bc it's affordable, easily accessible, and can be used for cowashing, 3 minute conditioning, and LHCF style DCing :lol:


Maaaan, I'm finally almost done with this, but now I'm going to try adding oils and honey. I just hope I like it enough to use up, not to add as another staple. :look: I ended up with a few staples that way.
 
My stash finally looks normal!! This challenge was very helpful in getting rid of a lot of stuff.

I used Giovanni Triple Threat Tea Tree Conditioner with coconut oil layered on top today and my hair is already dry. I usually mix honey and oils in the conditioners I'm using up so I might give it another try.

I'm thinking that trying to use up conditioners that don't work is not such a great idea for me, at least not right now-- my transitioning hair is fragile. I should start giving these products away or retry them on my fully natural hair.

That's a serious run on sentence you have there lamaria211 :lol:
 
I have several products that I plan to use up by the end of the year:

Nutiva Coconut oil
DB Coconut Transitioning Creme
V05 Shea Cashmere Conditioner (cowash)
Giovanni Smooth as Silk Deeper Moisture shampoo
Giovanni Smooth as Silk Exteme Protein Hair Infusion
DM Moisture Mist
Macadamia Natural Oil Deep Repair Masque (this was my staple DC when I was relaxed. It seems to be to heavy for my hair now. I will finish it up and revisit this product when my hair gets longer.)
Jojoba oil


I'm done with DM Moisture Mist. I used up the last of jojoba and jbco oil making a batch of sulfur growth oil.
 
I have to update my list but overall I did very well considering. I got some ayurvedic powders I needed, 3 hair products (+2 free BOGO), and hair bonnets. I will pick up some Tresemme Naturals and I am done.
