Provided you do anything different. I guess most dramatic was that I completely changed my cores from SAM and TT to BGT and Fig. I am still playing around, some days my hair looks great and somedays no as much. My husband stocked up on his brand of shampoo and then decided to change it so I have been using his salon shampoo Wen more as a conditioner about three days a week. If I colored my hair I probably would have just told him to finish his or dump it but I am finding that I like that extra bit of fluffiness. I don't think I could do this routine in the Fall months when I just need much more moisture.

Do you find yourself with an overabundance of one formula? I have too much 613, but i like the scent so I am using it as a shaving cream and body wash. I am still going to try each new seasonal, but going to keep the BGT and Fig, always!

For me, the biggest change is increasing the frequency of scalp oil treatments. In the past I would do an oil treatment a few times per month, now I try to do it the night before each cleanse.

This for me, too. I'm trying to use Remoist more often, as well. I'm happy with the formulas I use, so none of that has changed.

I replaced POM sc with 613 sc. I use 613 as an overnight treatment once a month and I've reintroduced SAM to my routine.

I am still doing pretty much the same thing. I have done lots of experimenting over the past couple of years, but keep coming back to the same routine. I use 20 pumps of cc, a pea size or dime size of leave in cc, and a pump of styling creme. I love the oils and RTM also. My number of pumps has increased from 16 to 20 because my hair is longer.

Oh true Hillary my hair is much longer so I using more pumps too. Maybe that's the reason my stock is dwindling. Lol

I'm using oils now, doing overnight scalp treatments a few nights a week. A year ago I didn't even own a bottle of oil, other than what's in my kitchen cabinet. I'm able to get decent second day hair whereas I used to be a daily cleanser. My hair is longer than it's been in years and I have new regrowth.

The main thing is that I started writing down what I was using each time in my pocket schedule. I was able to keep in my head better the effects of each CC, plus I was more aware of whether I could get in an overnight oil or remoist session instead of realizing afterward that I could have done it. I better balance my use of wheat based formulas and 613 with soy based. I feel like my hair is getting more what it needs, and I hardly ever have a bad hair day.

I am using the oils more frequently, and the SC every day.

I had a hard time getting the hang of the SC - using too much, waiting until my hair was towel dry, etc.

I have never been particularly dedicated to a particular formula (or set of formulas). I use and like several and rotate them frequently.

Recently, I fell back into like with CA and as soon as I get thru the several open bottles in my shower, it's next in line.

I no longer have to use Fig all the time. Once my hair grew out, I cut off all of the non-Wen hair, and I can pretty much use any formula I want now. I still use fig when I need a little extra moisture or sheen, but now I rotate bamboo, 613, seasonals and a little tea tree. I've also increased the oil scalp treatments, as I find that to be the thing that improves my hair the most.
