I had some extra time on my hands and decided to see just how much I was spending on hair products. For my basic hair regimen I spend $57.88. What is yours? It can also include products  you have tried and or products you only had to buy once.

My regimen is about $72.00.  Wow I never knew I spent this much just for hair care!

My texturizer is 75.00, but I only have that done twice a year.

Otherwise.......shampoo and conditioner, 8.00, hair lotion 4.00, "expermimental" things 20.00.

32.00 without the texturizer.

I used to be a product junkie, and I use products for a long time or until it's finished (if it isn't harmful to my hair) to try to keep from spending 72.00 on just products.

Suave conditioner- .76

Suave 2-minute recovery- 2 or 3 dollars

motions shampoo- free

olive oil- .89

coconut oil- 8

---------------------

about 13 dollars   and up

Most of the products that I have tested, I didn't purchase. They were free samples from the companies.

I tried a few EO so that will add a couple more dollars...when I am done with those, they will not be purchased anymore.

Mine is pretty cheap.  I have plenty of shampoo, which I bought about 2 years ago (liter size), and I lather once.  I have plenty of conditioners (in fact too much).  The only real cost is my touch up, which runs me about 80 bucks every 3 - 4 months.  I would say I spent about $4 dollars this much.  And that was because I needed a clarifying shampoo.  I did buy some Shea Butter and Mango Butter Cholesterol last month.  And that was about $3 for the jar.  I have slowed down on my spending for real.

What does a pre-poo do?

It sort of acts as buffer from the stripping effects of most shampoos.  It also add lubrication to the hair and helps reduce dryness and breakage of the hair.
