Use Up the Stash Challenge: Session 3

I finally updated my placeholder to include my stash. I'll add a picture when i finish unpacking.

Finished SM (blk label) conditioner and Qhemets burdock root cream. I'm taking Afroveda off my Sept. target list. There's no way I'm going to finish them this month.

I just decided tonight (as I was washing my hair), that I am not going to buy anything else. There are two brands that are new to me, that I want to try through the BF sales. I will post all of my stash, later in the week.

And I have just used up my jar of Aphogee Curl Curlific Texturizer Treatment

Thanks for mentioning a PJ EnExitStageLeft

I'm still in.

My goals for this session is to decrease my leave ins and moisturizers. I also hope to find a staple shampoo. Most of these are from my stash when my hair was much longer. I cut my hair to a twa in November and it's still at the same length. I've been on a no buy since May and hope I can continue until the end of the session.

I bought two jars of SM purification masqueso that can be added to my stash list. Never going without that stuff again. If any of you ladies have scalp issues get chu some! This stuff works wonders and my scalp issues are severe imo.

I still haven't washed my hair in this weave yet lol. BUT I do think I'll get a couple products used up... Which is good!

Yesterday I used the last of my Silk Elements Kera Minerals Deep Conditioner - love it! I have a new jar I will start on next week. This is my new staple for sure.

I used up (and just now notice it wasn't included in my stash post) CJ curl rehab. I like it but I'm not feeling the price. Depending on curlmarts black Friday sale, I may repurchase.

Used up APB Watermelon Hair Spray This was of course wonderful. Love her leave ins.

Will attempt to make a dent before Black Friday. I have not participated in any of the sales since early this year.

Im out of hair hiding for a week. Still working on using up this one lonely shampoo on this list. I will be washing my niece hair tomorrow or Tuesday. Hope to finish it off on her LOL.

I just finished the CD Monoi Mask. I know that I have not listed my stash. I was hoping to whittle it down, before I did

Sorry I'm late. My first semester of law school is kicking my butt, but I'm loving it and the stress is making my hair grow baby grow. I don't have many products, but this is a personal no buy challenge, so joining is appropriate. If you see me buying anything, whoop my sorry butt.

Used up "I Love Juicy" Shampoo from Lush... In a week and a half I should finish the Trader Joe's TTT.

Also shouldn't have many uses left of Paul Mitchell The Detangler... It won't be a repurchase because sometimes my hair likes it, other times it does not. Plus it has all kinda of unnatural stuff going on in it and I'm trying to have MOST of my products be more natural.

Ladies I'm in. I've given away a lot of stuff this past few months and my stash is smaller than it's ever been. I'm not going to list everything but I LL try and post some pictures later

I'm in...haven't posted in the hair area in a while. I will post my stash and what I plan to use up by the weekend at least. I plan to do a lot of cowashing and deep conditioning, as I have let up on some of that the past few months.

How did you like it?

I really liked it. It has a lot of slip and moisturizes well.

I will use up Sitrinillah Deep Masque this week. I will start start on another jar as well. This some good stuff.

I'm thinking about doing my black Friday shopping early because of the curlmart sale and the baby coming in less than a month. If I do, I'm going to try to stick to staples, with only a few new products that have been on my to try list for a long time. I'm making my shopping list now.

ETA: I semi-failed at sticking to mainly staples. I bought 11 items. Only 3 are current staples. Sigh. I guess I'll be with you ladies a little longer. At least I saved $50. I won't include my purchases in my stash list until they arrive, but they are on my blog, along with the rest of my BF list.

Used up Tangles and Beyond Detangling Conditioner (not sure of the exact name). Not a repurchase.

We used up:
*Kenra platinum Hot Spray--I liked it but wanted to try something new. I bought L'Oreal Sleek It Iron Straight Heatspray (it's ok, but I won't repurchase when it's gone) and Oscar Blandi pronto Dry Styling Heat Protect Spray (can't wait to use this when the L'Oreal is gone)
*6 small Creme of Nature Argan Oil Intensive Conditioning Treatment packets
*apparently we threw away the Sulfur 8 grease when we were cleaning out DD's room. She HATED the smell and confessed she'd NEVER use it.

You know you have too many products when you find them randomly.

Randomly found an ApHogee 2 Minute reconstructor and I mentioned in random thoughts, I found a whole never opened flat iron!

Anyway, APHogee will probably be used in he next 2 washes.
