10 Signs You Have A Hair Product Addiction
Do you have a hair product addiction or just the exact amount of products that you need to keep your hair healthy and looking fabulous? Here are 10 signs that will help you identify It!
1. Every time you visit a department store or supermarket, you end up passing by the beauty aisle
So you make a supermarket list to get all those ingredients for the perfect roasted lamb, but somehow you find yourself standing in front of the beauty aisle checking the new hair products.
It’s like every time you step in, a magnet pulls you right to the hair product aisle and end up adding a bottle or two into your trolley.
2. You just bought a new product but heard there’s an upcoming hairline and subscribed to the waitlist.
You have not even opened the new hair product or tried it out, but you are dying to already try that new hydrating line that will be on sale within two weeks.
Maybe this new one will be “the one” you have been looking for… Can’t-miss the blue prince in the white horse, right? So you subscribed to the waiting list to be one of the first from your friends to have it.
3. You have bills due to pay but on your payday, the first thing you do is going to an online store and get some unneeded products.
Today is payday and days previous to it, you had written down all the due payments you have for the month but suddenly after getting paid your hair product gluttony just makes you think of that hair mousse that promises to add some volume to your hair and go to an online store to get some new products for your collection.
4. You have at least one hair product in your bathroom that you have not used in a year.
That’s right! Out of the bunch of bottles you have in your bathroom there is at least one of them that you haven’t opened or haven’t used in over a year.
You know you can hand it out to a friend that has the same hair texture as you or sell it on eBay but you want to keep it in your collection as long as you can just in case you change your mind.
5. Your bathroom looks like the beauty aisle of a department store.
Your products have taken over your bathroom! You have to make your way through to get to the shower. Oils, hair gels, shampoos, conditioners you name it cause you’ve got everything from A to Z when it comes to a hair product.
6. You go to a beauty supply just to get a new shampoo cause you ran out of it but end up getting home with much more than that.
You did not only get the shampoo but also a conditioner, two leave-ins, and a gel because you think your hair got tired of the 200 hundred other products you’ve got at home and these might revive them,.
7. You can’t leave a hair event without getting free samples.
To every hair event you get invited to, you can’t help to ask for free samples or participate into raffles to try out some products or have some extra stock of the ones you already have at home… It’s never too much product!
8. You take every hair product that your friends want to give you, even if you know they are not meant for your hair texture.
Your best friend has tried a hair product that does not work on her hair so she decided (like the rest of your other friends) to give it to you.
Even if you know that you both have different hair textures and that it probably won’t work on you either you still take it to place it next to those other products that you still haven’t use.
9. You moved abroad and so did your products with you.
You had to move to another country and decided to fill your carry on with all the products that you could fit in. You could have donated them to some friends or someone that might need it but the emotional attachment is too strong.
10. You check your bank statement and realize you buy more than three hair products every month.
You had promised yourself that this year you will start saving, so you decide to start checking your bank statements to see where is all your money going to. To your surprise, you realize that you buy more than three products each month.
