My solution to the end of the bottle...

Hello wenners! So this September will mark my one year wenniversary! It's kind of surreal to think I haven't had a bad hair day in almost a year :-) I've seen a lot of posts and expressed frustrations about the end of the bottle and diluting it or cutting it open never really worked for me. When the pump stops working (usually about a quarter or so left), I put the bottle aside and open a new one of the same scent. When I have a few bottles gathered, which is usually about once a month, I grab the almost empties as well as ones that I've been using for about a week or so. I take the pumps out and shake the almost empty one to get the wen down to the neck of the bottle and start to slowly squeeze it into the almost full bottle. When the squeezing stops working, I just tap the rim of the empty bottle against the fuller one (which I usually put on a towel on the table or floor) and then gently tap the bottom bottle against the floor to settle the wen into the bottle. The whole process takes me a few minutes per bottle and I usually wait til I have quite a few (ie a fgp, sggt, wvm) as well as space in newer bottles. This process is probably not for everyone since it requires a little patience and depends on your usage, but it works well for me since I always have so many different wens open at the same time and find that this way I have almost no waste and don't have to worry about trying to squeeze it out while in the shower. Most of my success is attributed to you gals and guys (I'm an avid reader of the wen forum) and just wanted to say thanks and maybe give something back that will help someone else!
