Is it normal?

Is it normal when you first start DIY juice to lose your taste a bit? It tasted phenomenal to me on my rda at first now it's slowly losing flavor.

All I can think of is it wasn't steeped enough but is it normal at first to lose flavor when switching over?

DIY juices don't have near the sweeteners and some flavors are good then fade and then come back during steeping. Look for some snv, shake and vape, recipes and put the juice you're talking about up for a week or two. Some flavors do only last a few days before completely fading away. Trial and error. Singles will tell you this info.

ummm, sometimes. When I do my mixing, I usually mix several different recipes at a time. Taste testing all of these within a relatively short period will give you vapors tongue. So I just gargle with warm salt water and wait a day and then my taste buds perk right back up.

It depends on what your mixing up. Some flavors might fade, like lemon, or more likely you just need a break from it. Switch off and come back to it later.

It is also possible that not shaking it up enough and allowing it to steep caused the flavors to not mix fully or maybe even separate and float on top. So you vaped up most of the flavor in the first few tanks and are now left with less flavoring in the bottle. I am not sure this is the case, the other theories are just as valid.

Like others have said, it can depend on flavors and steeping time. What kind of juice is it and how long did you steep it for?

Also, vaping one flavor for too long (regardless of store bought or not) can bring on vaper's fatigue if it's the only juice vaped.

I did kind of have to "reset" my tastebuds from storebought flavors once I started DIY, but that period wasn't such a long time....

Could be several things, possibly all at once. But, I will say congrats on your first flavor! Sometimes mixing some one shot flavors that you can vape immediately without combining and steeping can be useful, as it gives the necessary patience for adequate steeping.
