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.

Combine each type into a mega bottle and make her use them before buying new. This is dumb.

Have her invite a few friends over for a swap party.

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.

I use a different type of hair product and we don’t host guests in our house.


I've used shampoo from bottles people have left after visiting and such to hand wash wool sweaters.

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.

How many of you complaining about OP's daughter's shampoo bottles flew on an airplane recently?

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".

Yep. It will go great with their infrequent access to running water.

And, I have used conditioner to shave my legs and I can say it works well.

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.
