Wen hair users, please advise

[UnderProtest]

So my SIL bought me the wen hair conditioner stuff for Christmas and I used it for the first time today. Did any of you use the amount they recommended. I have chin length hair and it said use 16-20 pumps. I did 6 and had a handful. Will it not work if I use less than half of the recommended amount?  Any other tips?

What happened when you tried to skimp? My hair feels fine today. And I don't have bad hair to start (no split ends, no coloring, etc) so I'm not sure what it's really supposed to do.

I have tried using it before, and I did not like it. I have fine hair. I think I may have been doing something wrong, so I would follow the directions.

I started using the recommended amount because I wanted to make sure it worked. It felt like overkill so I cut it down by about 1/3 and I never noticed a difference. I have super thick, dry hair and really like Wen.

Never. Like you said it always seems like too much! I have chin length hair and usually 6-8 pumps is enough. I have found that I use a different amount of pumps for each scent, so it's trial and error the first couple times I try a new one.
