Tried it....hated it....
I was just cleaning the bathroom and while putting away the clean towels I noticed some products sitting around on shelves...stuff I tried and hated....mostly hair products.
I'm not fickle about my hair products, I trust some brand names more than others, I have a few "must have" things like the spritzy stuff that makes hair shiny, detangler, a certain brand and type of conditoner, but sometimes if they are out of stock, or just because I think there just might be something better, I buy something new...
Rarely works out for me.
I hate the product, maybe it does more harm than good, maybe it's just inferior.
I hate to just try it, hate it, throw it away. If it's not an expensive product, it's really not worth the hassle to find a box,pack the remainder with the cash register reciept, and make a trip into the post office to return it for a full refund.
If it's crappy and inferior, then I'm sure no one else would want it, so I don't give it away, yet...it gathers dust and takes up space, a nearly full container of stuff I know I will never use. It seems a shame to just throw it away.
I do throw it away, but only after I tire of it sitting on my shelf, along with others, just mocking me....

Most shampoo, body wash and so on have the same main ingredient. [amonium laurel sulfate] just mix 'em together and wash the car.

Re: Tried it....hated it....
...and start shampooing my hair in ArmorAll?
Arggghhh! I do just hate though, when I finally find the perfect products for me, hair conditioner, great shade of lipstick, etc....and they quit carrying it locally, or quit making it.
Then it's trial and error till I find a suitable replacement. Samples seemed a good idea, but anyone who's worked in manufacturing knows, samples sometimes are a "special" batch and what you buy in larger quanities off the stocked shelf may not be quite as good.

Re: Tried it....hated it....
Very good suggestions.
I also end up keeping a few too many containers around that have a some product left but I can't get the remainder out unless I cut the dam thing open...

Re: Tried it....hated it....
I'll ask friends and see if anyone likes the product, if so I give it to them.
Otherwise, I suck up and use it anyway :x
