Use Up Your Stash 2012 - Session 2

Ladies we have come upon the second stage of this challenge. I hope all of you are in a better position then you were in Session 1. I know I am. Not but much. Since I use up things very slowly. Great thing is I haven't increased my hair products but much. I only buy what I need. Now that I am starting school again..... This is going to be what I have to do for now Anyway. So ladies Who is down for Session two, I am just cuting and pasting the info from Session one :) below. If you no longer want to be in this challenge and see your name please IM me to remove it. If you don't see your name and want to join, just post it below. :) Thanks Ladies and Lets USE IT UP in 2012
Session 2.


Sessions are as follows:
Session 1 - Jan. 1, 2012 - April 30, 2012
Session 2 - May 1, 2012 - August 31, 2012
Session 3 - Sept. 1, 2012 - December 31, 2012

You can sign up for all the sessions or lets do one at a time


The Rules:

1. Use the suggested categories or add categories of your own, list your stash within 5 days of joining the challenge. If you have a REALLY Big stash, put in a little at a time. But keep your list updated with the products used, given away, exchanged, etc.

Posting a starting pic of your stash is optional. You can then update this "place holder" as we go along with details of what you have used, sold, exchanged and given away.

2. For each category you can include 1 item for a staple. Mark this item. You can purchase 1 staple item per category to have 1 on hand without using a pass. If you stock up on staples anything beyond 1 item must be put in your stash list.

3. Participants are allowed 1 product purchase per month

4. The idea is to decrease your stash not increase it. You are free to swap, sell, throw away and give away products to your heart’s content as long as the stash is "decreasing". The aim is to be reasonable and realize that we do not need to buy so much stuff but rather be more disciplined with our regiments and learn to establish our staples by actually using the stuff instead of continually buying more !!!

6. Also please check in every 2 weeks to let us all know how it is going and to get support so you do not fall off the challenge.

7. If you fall off the wagon, update your stash list and get back in the game. The idea is to encourage better spending habits, make wise product purchases and to gain discipline in our regimens.


Paste the following info if you’re up for the challenge

1. What are your motivations for joining this challenge?

2. List the products you hope to use up in your stash. Use your own categories.

Suggested Categories:
- Shampoos
- Conditioners
- Deep Conditioners
- Leave Ins/Moisturizers
- Oils & Essential Oils & Butters
- Herbal & Ayurvedic Products
- Styling products
- Other

3. Post a Pic of your "Stash". (Optional)

4. What are your goal(s) for the session
i.e. – reduce my stash by 20%
i.e. – to have 1 shampoo, 2 conditioners, 3 styling products, etc.
[Fill in your goal]

I am definitely IN! I still have a butt load of products to use up. SMH :nono:

I am going to case up some things and give them away. WHICH is what I am going to do at the start of each challenge to purge just a few things off on others who can use it.

I feel good because people that I give them too actually use them. SO that is a big PLUS!!!!

I plan to give at least 5 products away in the next month. Hopefully I can use up some as well. I am wigging it so, products move way slower then normally. We all know that is slow enough.

On a happy hair journey
Only products that need to be used up are on listed here. I have not included staples in this list since those are things that will be repurchased regularly.

Your stash is really small NikkiQ, compared to the very 1st session. Your stash count is actually smaller than mine :look: :lol:

I removed my staples from my stash products. My stash is larger than ever but I have purchased wisely to try and find my staples compared to previously when I just had hair products I had no clue about. By the end of this session I really want to find my staple moisturizers.

Wow, I am shocked that I got the guts to try a use up your stash challenge. I am on a personal no buy until Black Friday. Since I started the HYH and no heat challenges, I am using far less product and I haven't purchase any products in two months- so I think I can try this.

I traded a ginger shampoo, SD waterfall, and Oyin Hair Dew for IC heat protectant, CD Chocolate Smooth, and CJ coco. I am still curious to try products, but I think I will do trades from now on, and continue to reduce my stash.

1. What are your motivations for joining this challenge? I want to clear out the clutter in my cabinets, and purchase things as I use them.

I've learned my lesson with the PJism...sorta lol. I was buying stashes in bulk and had to stop. Granted I did find some really good products that worked great for me (like all my Curl Junkie products), but I've been trying to keep my product reggie simple and not switch it up way too much.

I am shamefully to lazy to go through all my products and list them. :/ I figure later I will line them on a table and take a group shot!

I honestly can't wait to box things up and give some away that is the only way I will get it to moving.

My sisters Bday is coming up and I am gifting her a Wen Ginger Pumpkin :)
Giving my best friend a box of stuff, she called today requesting her box of hair goods :lachen:

I'd like to reduce mystash by 10-20 products by the end of this session and each session there after. If I can I should be good by the middle of next year! Sad!

I need to start reducing my wig stash too, meaning not to buy anymore until I get rid of the ones I have and wear them until I can't wear them anymore. :nono:

I'm still in! :) I made a decent dent in my stash last session. I'll update my list later, I ended up buying a couple of new products :look: but they're staples... Well, all but one of them. *runs out*

I am in again. This challenge has really helped me. I went a little crazy halfway through the last challenge, but I self-corrected. I have used up some stuff, given some away, and even returned some things I can pick up as needed. I don't need to have 8 TJ Nourish Spa sitting in my house.

Motivations for joining this challenge? Use up non-staples.

Do you have that one product in your stash that when you look at it, it just gets on your nerves? You don't think it will ever go away? :lol:

I have this shea butter blend that seems like I have buckets and buckets of it. Ok, its not that much but it seems like it. I tried to use it every time I seal my ends and I swear it looks like there is the same amount in there that was in there in January.

I haven't brought myself to throw it out yet. But I feel so tempted. :lol:

I may melt it down and put it in a smaller container and maybe I will feel better :ohwell:
