I'm still here but still haven't used up anything. I have faith I'll use up a few things soon. I'm back to my mini braids and this heat is making me sweat a lot. So I'm washing every 2 days or so.

Glad you joined! :smile:

I've been avoiding Biosilk products: I have the Biosilk Hard Rock Gelee and luuuurve it. It has made me want to trial more Biosilk products, but I can't go down that path. :cry3::smile:

Used Up Soultanicals Slip N Slide. This smells good and moisturizes and detangles my hair great but it goes bad too fast.
Yup!! It’s a great product!
Soultanicals never goes bad in my household lol

I m too lazy to list all the products can I take pics instead or would it be triggering ?

Received a Garnier Whole Blends Shampoo sample in one of my magazine subscriptions....Dang it!

But the good thing is from July - September, I'm off the wig challenge, which means I will be washing/cowashing my hair every week. So, I expect to get rid of a lot of samples on my list.

Purchased:

Shea Moisture 100% Virgin Coconut Oil Hydration Daily Styling Gel

Photos won't trigger me either.

Adding to the stash:

- Obia Coconut and Shea Shampoo Bar (found while cleaning my closet)
- Kinky Curly Knot Today
- Kinky Curly Curling Custard

Used Up:
- Annabelle's Perfect Blends Herbal Conditioner

Tossing:
- Mielle Organics Honey & Pom Twisting Soufflé
- Mielle Organics Honey & Pom Curl Smoothie
- Mielle Organics Honey & Pom Curling Custard

I tried to make them work but they are just eh for me. They were okay with twist outs but since I cut my hair I've only been doing wash and gos and I don't like them at all for those.

Also, I don't have any deep conditioners at the moment but the Redken All-Soft Conditioner works well as a DC for me so I'm not in a rush to purchase.

I will also include the dates used, given away, repurposed, purchased or added in parentheses.

So um yeah. Starting session 2 with 1 less product than I did in session 1 despite using up so much. But I know it's because of all the hair samples I received over the past few months. And this session probably won't be any better. I'll be straightening my more often so I won't be washing and styling as much.

My goal for session 2 is to use up at least 15 products and get the overall stash down to under 65 products. I don't plan on buying much so hopefully I don't get plagued with a bunch of samples.

Total to start Session 3 = 67

Did meet part of my goal of finishing at least 15 products this quarter. But my overall stash is still over 65. And as usual, it's due to receiving samples. I swear, even when I don't request samples in orders, I still get them and they almost always send hair samples. It wouldn't be so bad if I didn't get shampoos. Those last forever for me.

Making a super loft goal to finish up 25 products for this 3rd quarter. Since a good portion of what I have is samples, I think I can get a lot moved out. My plan is to alternate using up a sample then a full size to make sure everything get rotated through. Also going to try to avoid samples as much as possible. If I do get some, I might just pass them on.

I'm a little different. What got me in trouble was buying a few items from good sales, companies going out of business & getting free samples throughout the years. Unfortunately, I couldn't work through my product stash fast enough and it kept growing and growing. But, you are definitely right, we only need a few products at a time.
