USE UP YOUR STASH 2013: Session 2

EnExitStageLeft

Well-Known Member
I hope Ms. @JJamiah doesn't mind me starting Session 2. I knows she's been super swamped with school.

SO HERE IT IS LADIES :grin:

If you don't see your name and want to join, Please thank this post and YOUR IN :yep: . Thanks Ladies and Lets USE IT UP in 2013

Sessions are as follows:
Session 1 - Jan. 1, 2013 - April 30, 2013 DONE!
Session 2 - May 1, 2013 - August 31, 2013 IN PROGRESS!
Session 3 - Sept. 1, 2013 - December 31, 2013


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]

Cream of Nature / Jojoba & Olive Oil Deep Conditioning Treatment

I used this up last night. There wasn't much left, so I had to mix in a little bit of the Aussie 3-min conditioner. My texlaxed hair didn't like either of these but my natural hair seems to be moisturized. Next time I DC I'll try the Aussie alone and see how my NG responds. That would suck that after finally using the product up and I end up repurchasing it. :perplexed :drunk:

Hey, ladies! :weird:

1. What are your motivations for joining this challenge? I looked in my hair closet and realized I needed to reform my product junkie ways, so I cancelled my hair box subscription and now I am trying to cut my stash down to the basics. I'm also a new natural and realized that I may have low porosity hair, when I thought it was high before. So, as part of cutting down my stash, I'm also trying to figure out what works for my hair in its new state.

Shamefully I have been shopping and will box up some products for my sister soon. I will update my list after I get things shifted off. I start my next semester in about 13 days... :nono: I know... But, it is what it is.

Thanks so much for keeping the thread going. :)

I've used up my Hairveda Sitrinillah Deep Conditioner and Beyond the Zone Last Call Hair Mask. I gave away my Mixed Chicks Trial and Travel Pak, Roux Porosity Control, and my Aubrey GPB Conditioner.

Being in here kept me from going on a hair product shopping binge, but I did buy peppermint castille soap to try in my conditioner. I keep looking at my stash list whenever there is a sale at Curlmart.

Girl I tried to take 5 classes at the beginning of my senior year of college and nearly lost my dag'gon mind. I said never again and kept it within 3 to 4 classes until I finished. I just was not about that life :lol:.

I have 1/2 bottles of an Aussie 3 min and ORS replenish condish left. I'll also be using up (within this Month) 1 Bee mine moisturizer and Shescentit moisture most. I'll repurchase both of those:)

Thanks to Target's generous return policy, I just returned my Camille Rose Curl Maker gel. It wasn't working for me. I had some curls from it, but they were frizzy curls.

Sally's gave me a 30% off coupon so I bought more As I Am products. I bought the Leave-In which I love. I also bought the conditioner and the Double Butter. Those were the only products I bought. But I did buy some clips and some spray bottles.

I went to pick up some hair Friday to put in kinky twists. And picked up the new formula of S-Curl and a jar of long aid activator. Want to dilute the S-Curl for my braids. The long-aid was $.99. Someone mentioned in a thread that it might be more moisturizing for my hair.

My hair is in flat twist extensions right now so probably won't use up anything. Will use mostly the S-Curl and some oil to keep my hair moisturized.
