I Was Waiting For...

77yangya — Tue, 29 Nov 2016 18:03:49 GMT

I was waiting for the duo of 613 or 319 mousse on easy pay and I just wandered around and it's there! I'm on my last bottle of 613 mousse. I do have alot of the others which are really good but my favorite is the 613 and now I get to try the 319 in it! YAY!!!!! I found spritzing my roots with the volumizer gives amazing shine and bounce but again my favorite in this too is 613. I don't have the 319 volumizer. I'm not even sure if it's out but if it is I'll get that too. I have the 319 RTM and that's pretty good. My favorite now is the PJP RTM. After my hair is all done I spritz it all around with the 613 volumizer. Not for volume but for the extra amazing shine and it holds but keeps the hair really soft, bouncy, alive with movement, it's great!

@77yangya I can feel your excitement about these products! So cool. I tried WEN mousse for the first time recently and it was the 613. I like it a lot. I also am in love with the treatment mists and I want to try them all. Haven't tried the volumizers yet. On my to do list... I want everything!!

I share your enthusiasm @77yangya and @cac140!

I've had a bottle of 613 mousse for about a year, and haven't had much luck sporadically trying to use it a variety of ways and varying the number of pumps.

Then, Ta-Daa! two clenses ago the mousse does magic on my hair, and I'm in the usual Wen quandry of trying to remember EXACTLY what I did differently this time so I can repeat it next time.

I repeated my new mousse technique last nite and im thrilled to say my hair looks even better the 2nd time.

So now I've used about half of the 613 mousse bottle figuring out how to use it, and I'm thinking I'd like to order a bottle of FVWP mousse while I still can.

I used 10 pumps of the 613 mousse, and 10 pumps will be my standard application each future cleanse.

DOES ANYBODY KNOW ABOUT HOW MANY PUMPS OF MOUSSE ARE IN A 7.5OZ WEN MOUSSE BOTTLE?

@x Hedge I want that FVWP mousse too!! I have to draw the line somewhere. But that scent is out of this world...and you're right about it being gone soon. Ugh....I can't hardly stand much more of this WEN stuff anymore. I think I may have a little problem and need therapy....OMG......

Don't worry @cac140, you'll soon be able to harness your "buy everything Wen" desire somewhat. Well, that's when you'll "have everything Wen" in stash!

No seriously, it will soon start come together and into place - your Wen addiction, size of your stash, your most favorite products you like using most often, and the money you will be spending will - LESSEN! Mainly because you'll have everything!

I agree, FVWP smells DIVINE! I have not checked, but if there is a super great deal for a kit with this mousse, yeah why not. If there is not - later! They are quite expensive on ebay too, but there is one for $17.59 with $3.49 shipping - " Wen fall vanilla white pumpkin Nourishing Mousse. NEW!SEALED!#6921 "

Oh @cac140, your post did it! I'm so weak.

I went straight to A29040, FVWP and ordered it. . .and put it on AD for good measure!

But @sonechko is SO right. You'll soon reach a point when you'll be comfortably able to let a good Wen deal pass. I'm not quite there yet either.

Last year I realized I had enough CC to last me more than 2 years. I resolved not to buy any more CC until I'd I'd used up the ones I wouldn't reorder anyhow.

I set aside my favorite 5 and set about "using up" everything else by stepping up my cleansing schedule.

But by then it was easy to say "no more" to the SAM, POM, Fig, 2 of the rice formulas, and several seasonals.

Now I'm happy with ONE each favorite Spring, Summer, Fall, Rice, core, and 613 . Heavens isn't that enough variety for one head? One nose?

While buying no CC, for a year I indulged my jonsing to buy Wen on RTM (including The Maple Head Blunder) and 3 oils.

I WILL buy the Dec TSV CC since SHL, SCLV, and FVWP happen to be my favorite 3 seasonals. But that's it, since I already have enough on the shelf and TT on AD. That, plus the styling products I ordered today, shoud hold me till SCLV mousse is available.

At this point I almost hope I DON'T like Red Current.

@sonechko You mean there is hope for me? What a relief! So I just have to buy everything up first and then taper down from there... haha... Sounds good to me! I am learning though, you are right. Learning how much I go through and don't need to have this mega stash of CC's. Can't afford it anymore anyway. Love experiencing all the new scents and formulas. It's so much fun to be a girl isn't it?

Too funny!! Laughed out loud at that one! You bought it AND put it on auto delivery! Love it!! And you hope you don't like the red currant! Thanks for the chuckle....haha... I like your system though. I need to do better. I have five seasonals sitting here, all opened but at least 2/3 remaining in each. Think I'll skip the TSV... Yikes!!! Did I really just say that?!?!... Progress... I got the TSV last time and will get to try the red currant and the cherry blossom in the Spring. That should hold me over for a while!

Re: I Was Waiting For...

x Hedge — Wed, 30 Nov 2016 01:23:22 GMT

@cac140, I also have the Sept TSV.

I delayed the Red Current shipment until Spring so I can get Red Current with the December TSV delivered first. I'll keep the December TSV because I know I want the other seasonals included. But if I'm not gaga over the Red Current I'll likely skip over that (Sept TSV )shipment and wait for Cherry Blossom, or cancel the Sept AD altogether.

Is that clear? I never would've thought of that without the experienced Wenners posting their learned strategies here.

(THANK you all!)

Now that I've gotten rid of my over-supply of CC's I'm leery about building it back up. I find I LIKE having room to move bottles around on my Wen shelf.

Yep. If a Girl is to have an addiction, then addiction to Wen is the sweetest and the safest! You are right, you'll learn how much you go through, but most importantly - what Wen you love and use the most. Of course - allowing yourself a pleasure to try all the new formulas, is the part of our process! See how much you are liking the new FVWP? Me too! But, it may happen so, that by the next year it won't thrill you as much, and you'd only get one puny ODO of FWVP, if any at all. This happend to me with Summer Vanilla Lime Coconut. I looooooved it first, and this year got none of it, but only SHP on nicely priced ODO with A/D. I ended up cancelling the A/D, because my SHP opened bottle will take me to the summer, expecially that I have other great CCs to use. This last 8-10 month I did not really spend too much money on Wen CCs at all! It's new Wen EDPs that t

Re: I Was Waiting For...

@x Hedge That is very clever thinking. Yes, these people are so helpful with their suggestions. I wouldn't have thought to do that. I know I could switch to the CA for one of those TSV (Sept) shipments but I can't give up my Tea Tree in the big size and definitely want a SAM. I think the smartest thing I could do is just take the auto-delivery shipments of the TSV with the two new seasonals, use up what I've already got which is plenty and see how far it gets me. I'm guessing quite some time. Like almost a year. The biggest surprise of all with WEN is how much less often I need to shampoo. Never saw that coming. Figured it would be the opposite. Every third day works for me. Used to be every day. So happy about that.

Yep, there sure is, @cac140. Not only you'll learn how much you go through, you'll also learn which CCs you LOVE to buy the most! And even those, only when there are fantastic deals offered. Of course, allowing ourselves to try a new CC release, is a real treat and a must in my opinion! See how much you (and I) loved this latest FVWP!

But it may happen, you won't like it all that much next year and buy only one single little ODO! I was just crazy about Summer Lime Coconut at first, but this summer I did not care to buy any at all, and went only for SHP on great ODO deal with A/D. I even cancelled that A/D recently, because SHP opened 32 oz bottle will last me probably till summer, considering all other CCs I love to use.

Honestly, I did not spend all that much on CCs this last 8-10 month. Where Chaz got me, was on new releases of EDPs........ And on 319 NBT....

But it's okay. If a woman must have an addiction, Wen is the sweetest and the safest one to me!

cac140 — Wed, 30 Nov 2016 01:40:28 GMT

@sonechko I do adore that FVWP and would love to get the whole styling set so I smell that beautiful fragrance much longer. But I'm going to hold off until next fall. Also decided I'm not going to buy any more CC's for a while and let my auto-delivery from Sept. run it's course. As for those new EDP's mini's...... Oh my......

I love all things 613, but ever since I started the Wen Kids for 1st cleanse & a mix of WK's & seasonal for 2nd, I need alot less styling product..I think the WK's cleans so well, & my hair is a bit thicker looking, (which isn't easy for baby fine, thin hair)...but 613 SC has been a staple since I started, the mousse I use sometimes, the other SC would be VWP...those two are tops in styling products... getting new Wen makes me happy, I will never get tired of those boxes coming!
