Way back in the old days, when I used to be able to get a haircut, I would often buy various different shampoos from the salon. I now have at least 6 partially used shampoo bottles sitting in the shower.

Do you think I could just combine the shampoos into one bottle? Would it really matter if I combined them?

I am another who has numerous (expensive) shampoos.  I would not mix them.  Some I need only a dime size of product to get a lot of suds, while others I need quite a bit more.  Also, there is a huge difference in scents.  Mixed together it could be a huge PU.

Thank you - I did not think about the scents. I am so glad you mentioned that.

It seems that I just reach for the shampoo bottle with the pump because it is fast and easy. The bottles from the hair salon, I have to flip the top, wait for the shampoo to slowly reach the top and squeeze out the shampoo. I waste a whole 5 seconds.

@drizzellla  - I wouldn't mix them either.  When you're at the end of the bottle, add a little water to get it all out.

@drizzellla   I'd test drive them by pouring some of one and some of one other in a small paper cup before mixing entire bottles together. Sometimes they sit on top of eachother just because of the ingredients. I also wouldn't mix a hydrating shampoo w/ a volumizing one. Try to keep types/functions together.

I mix lots of things to save space, so I would say go ahead and mix them, it is just shampoo, it isnt hair color,  but that is just my personal opinion.

I mix some Clairol Shimmer Lights (purple shampoo) into my volume shampoos.   Previously - I would mix my Sheer Blonde shampoo into my volume shampoo.  

I've mixed shampoos since forever .. never even thought about it.

I mix things all the time to use them up. I see no problem with it at all. Mix away!

The scents always seem to dissapate rapidly as soon as hair dries.

I've mixed shampoos, body washes, and liquid hand soaps without problems.

It's all detergent.
