I am on a roll :yay: I washed tonight and have one more use of the Deva Curl No Poo. I will use the rest of the leave-in I made with the Giovanni, the rest of the week.

The I will move onto the Taliah Waajid mist bodifier. Only have a 1/2 bottle of that. I will meet my goals for September.

I may be able to reduce my stash to 1/2 by December. :yep:
 
Used up my beloved Hollywood Beauty Olive Cholesterol. I consider it a staple. I have some other deep conditioners to use up though, so I'm going to hold off on replacing it.

B_Phlyy How do you use your Hollywood Beauty Olive Oil cholesterol? I have some that I don't like and need to repurpose it.

I used up my Suave Humectant conditioner. Not sure if I will repurchase but if I do, it won't be until I have used all my rinse-out conditioners.

I have less than one use left of Kuz Restructuring Cream. Really disappointed because I just knew I was going to finish that Kuz Restructuring Cream today. Next week.
 
B&B creme de Coco condish is 1/2 gone I just mixed a little with my megatek on dry hair after this I may use Kera Minerals dc with oils and honey for an overnight dc in preparation for fridays chemical service;)
 
Used up Desert Essence Fragrance Free and Lemon conditioners. I am not convinced these are 8oz. I get only 2, maybe 3, co-washes out a tube. I can use TJ TTT about 10x to co-wash and 6-8x if I use it to detangle. I like them, but they are not economical.

Also used up Garnier Pure Clean Styling Gel.
 
Used up my AO HSR, my staple but wont be repurchasing for a bit. Going to focus on using up my Lustrasilk Cholesterol x2 and my Ors Replenishing pac (2-3 uses left) and Apogee 2 minute (one use left in that)
So far in total I used up 2 items :grin:
 
Used up a couple of samples ,i m on holiday,i brought with me the lisa Rachel cleansing conditioner and an old Joico moisturizer ,is this stuff suppose to stink or is just off?
 
B&B going in the trash n garbage :) I have to mix it with stuff just to keep it from making my hair hard and tangled to me its not worth it
 
CWing tonight, Suave-Everlasting Sunshine Conditioner should be gone. Will be back to update......
 
lamaria211 My heart nearly stopped when I ran out of mine last year. I had to take a moment to sit down on the bed. I bought the replacement, but my heart still weeps for the original so I haven't used it yet.

The new one isn't the same :( I'd rather use the regular condish as a leave in.

just finished the last of my HE LTR leave in:sad:

I know the feeling, I've been using Aussie Split Ender. To me it is more moisturizing and a little goes a long way. Using too much feels like buildup over a few days, but with HE LTR I never had that problem.
 
After I go thru with my chemical I may have to make a few purchases
I'm thinking
CJ repair me
AO GPB
Giovanni Nutrafix
Rollers
Setting lotions
And some more CJ rehab
Am I missing anything?
 
I spritzed my hair with the JC leave-in. I'm not feeling this product. If I wake up with hard hair in the morning, it's down the drain. I don't think there is any hope for this product.

I also disliked that leave in very much the only products from her line I do like is the nourish n shine and her replenishing condish

I have seen people on yt use it and say the love it :ohwell: Did you really like the replenishing condish? It worked well?

It didn't destroy my hair today. I think I will use it to wet my hair before I twist it up. I think I need to dilute it a bit. I'm still on the fence. I definitely won't repurchase but not quite ready to throw it out. I could use it for a mosquito repellant if it were summer :lol:
 
I used to swear by the condish but after I moved from NY to FL I couldn't find it anymore :( good product not to thick not to thin

Thanks I think I saw it in Target. I'm going to behave right now though and get some of these other products out of the way. :yep:
 
Lustrasilk cholesterol is gone! :woohoo:

I realize that my shampoos are gonna take FOREVER to get rid of! I only use a dab every wash day. This blows.
 
My AE Garlic conditioner is gone, I love what that conditioner does to my hair. It's a staple but I won't replace it until everything's gone.
