Are you a shampoo waster?

Do you wait until you're completely out of shampoo before you buy some more? Or are you like me. Bored with the bottle before you finish it.

1. I weight until I am completely out.

Once I washed my hair with dish liquid LOL because I really was lazy and forgot. It was a mixture of the last drop of shampoo which I turned upside down to let it drain to the bottom and then dish liquid. My hair was sparkling :)

2. Nope

I use it until the last drop is gone. However I usually have 2 or 3 different ones opened at the same time & alternate between them. I never run out. :)

4. I always have a backup supply on hand

The top shelf of my linen closet looks like a small HBA aisle with two bottles of shampoo, 2 conditioners, 2 lotions, 2 body washes and a container of sugar-scrub. Under the sink I have 3 or 4 deodorants, 2-3 tubes of hand cream, several tooth brushes, 5-6 bars of soap and myriad other things. I am low on dental floss though.

5. I certainly hope no one would consider me a shampoo waster.

I use it until in only makes farting sounds when I try to get some out. When I can't get nary a drop out any more, for the last use, I fill it with a little water, shake it and use the last bit to wash my hair. You could probably drink out of the bottle with no taste of shampoo by the time I am through with it. Yes, I am a tightwad from the word, "go." :shrug:

6. I alternate between two different brands

One brand the first, the other the next.

Once both are gone, I buy 'em again.

(one is for cleaning, the other is for dandruff control)

7. I always lay in a stock of everything before I run out

But still use up the old bottles.

8. I don't waste it exactly.

I always run out of conditioner first, and I hate it when I have to open a new bottle of conditioner while I still have a quarter bottle of shampoo left. So, I end up opening two new bottles and saving what's left of the old shampoo for back up. If I end up with four or five of those, I combine them into one full bottle.

This all makes me sound a little crazy. :blush: :silly: :P

9. I used to switch shampoos and conditioners a lot because I couldn't find

the right ones for my hair. I tried a LOT of stuff that didn't work, and I have quite a few partially-used bottles at home. I can't bring myself to throw them away, but I won't use them either. I've tried giving them to family and friends, and some have gone that route, but I'm still stuck with a bunch of stuff I won't use.

I found just the right shampoo and conditioner, and I use them up. I also have a decent backup shampoo and conditioner, and I use those occasionally to prevent buildup from the other one. :) I'm happy with mine now, though!!! :woohoo:
