Does it spark joy? Next, go through your things one by one and hold each item in your hand. Kondo's criterion for whether or not you should keep something boils down to one simple question: Does it spark joy? Well, for starters, that mousse from seven years ago doesn't even spark foam — so why are you holding on to it?
If something does not spark joy, Kondo says you should thank it. (Even if all it did was teach us that it wasn't the right product for us). Then we toss it, it or donate it.
Pro tip: Take your items to the office and put them on the free table. You never know — what isn't right for your thick mane may be perfect for your fine-haired associate.
