| I’ve heard that people use shampoo or conditioner on their legs before shaving. Try this. |

Soap is soap. I use unwanted shampoo to clean toilets or the tub or as hand soap, if it's gentle enough.
You could also offer a bunch in your local buy nothing group. Practical items like that get snapped up quickly in my DC area group. |
| And, I have used conditioner to shave my legs and I can say it works well. |
+100 Spoiled rotten. Stop running the planet OP and Offer it on buy nothing. |
Yep. It will go great with their infrequent access to running water. |
| Definitely post to Buy Nothing. I recently saw many contenders for a used stick of deodorant. The gifter promised that it had only been used once "on clean pits". |
How many of you complaining about OP's daughter's shampoo bottles flew on an airplane recently?
|
| I think the waste is a micro issue. Sounds like OP wants an uncluttered house and is looking to donate useful stuff. I think people responded as if OP were a terrible parent but there are much, much worse things than letting one’s kid buy new shampoo before finishing the old. Really. Chill out. |

I've used shampoo from bottles people have left after visiting and such to hand wash wool sweaters. |
It doesn’t happen that often but occasionally we have a bottle that my daughter doesn’t like. I’ll use it for this, it works. Another option is to tell my husband to use it. He’s not that picky. |
| People in my local buy nothing facebook group would take that stuff! |
|
Have her invite a few friends over for a swap party.
|
| Combine each type into a mega bottle and make her use them before buying new. This is dumb. |
|
Use unwanted shampoo as hand soap I've done it it works just fine.
Your daughter is very wasteful I would make her use ALL of it before buying anything else. Waste not, want not. |
