NGL I kind of love the idea of giving the Roma family that begs for money in my neighborhood shopping center some open bottles of shampoo. Joke’s on you, suckas!

You're an adult and haven't found a shampoo and conditioner that works for you? After all these years?

NP. I also have curly hair and it’s very different than having wash and go normal hair.

+1 from a different NP.

The snarky PP carping about "you're an adult and haven't found one that works after all these years?" must have easy-care hair or hair that didn't change at all with age. How fortunate for that person, but the smugness and judgement are not a good look, no matter how perfect the hair might be.

I do this as well. I'm one of the PP's who posted that OP should stop indulging DD. If I have a body wash or shampoo that I don't care for, I use it instead to wash my delicates, and my make up brushes. Either way it doesn't go to waste.

NP and we do the same. Hand wash delicates; or as a hand soap; some shampoos make a decent body wash but that depends on your skin's needs; wash out hairbrushes (I wouldn't trust makeup brushes to a random shampoo, though); wash the mud room sink where the clothes washer vents water; etc. OP, show your DD there are other ways to use up products rather than throwing them out. I do understand what it's like to buy a product and discover it's just not for you and my own DD and myself have had that issue too! But wasting stuff is basically throwing money down the drain. Oh yeah...please recycle the plastic bottles, too, if you have bottle recycling in your area!

I'm the original PP. I also have curly hair. I've been using the same shampoo and contusions since college. Even if I needed to change I wouldn't find the need to throw away a 75% full bottle, because that's wasteful as hell.

Read the above. Shelters don't accept opened bottles.

I would make a box and leave it next to one so that people can just pick what they want.

Leaving a box of half-opened bottles of stuff on the sidewalk, when you have no idea whether anyone will see or want it is....dumping a box of trash. You're just leaving it for someone else to get rid of it. It isn't the favor you think it is.

sometimes companies change things, your hair also changes as you age, grey hair and then coloring your hair can change your hair needs. I can't believe you haven't changed up your routine since... when? I used pantene in my 20s. That would never work in my hair now.

Yep- put on Buy Nothing or give to a friend/relative.

OP, post it on Buy Nothing, you will be surprised.
