OMG I'm seriously freaking out!!!

Caramela · Feb 20, 2009

Ok, so last night I go to 2 different BSS in the area and all the huge green bottle CON have been replaced by those stupid Orange/Yellow bottle "new & improved" CON bottles!!! :wallbash:

Why didn't i stock up when everyone said they were going to be discontinued?
Well, today on my lunch break I'm going to run to Sally's because I think they have it but I'm going to buy as many bottles as I can with the cash I have in my wallet :nono:

What will happen when all the CON in the world is gone? :cry:

I know I'm late but I think it's finally "hitting" me : :sad:

Are you upset because they changed the color of the bottles? Aw poor chica...

Not the color, the formula.

The Five Stages Of Grief.

1. Denial.
2. Anger.
3. Bargaining.
4. Depression.
5. Acceptance.

:lol:

LivingDoll · Feb 20, 2009

You'll find some old formula, don't worry.

loolalooh · Feb 20, 2009

I hope you find some at the Sally's!

I have enough to last me a year or two. After that, I'm switching to Giovanni Triple Treat ... I think.

danigurl18 · Feb 20, 2009

i switched to Aveda Dry Remedy... i dont poo that often anyway

LivingDoll · Feb 20, 2009

If they ever run out of CON Green, I'm going back to Elasta QP Creme Conditioning Shampoo. That's the next best thing imo.

I actually read that this is better than CON. When I run out, I will start using this.

Caramela · Feb 20, 2009

Thanks, ladies. I think I'm just going to try the Elasta QP while I'm out today :yawn:

Oh wait, look I think I'm progressing past #2 Anger... :giggle:

supermodelsonya · Feb 20, 2009

Yeah, I'm sure there are some alternatives that are just as good, if not better.

You are!

You are bargining now. But, eventually will really realize you miss your beloved CON and become a little depressed. But one day you will fully accept that your CON is gone.

But, in the meantime, I say you should still check out every BSS you see and grab all the CON you see. :yep:

I could see some feeling that way. CON leaves some people's hair feeling coated. The EQP doesn't do that (at least it didn't for me). It is ultra moisturizing without the buildup. :yep:

I love them both. I used EQP when I first joined LHCF.

jazzyto · Feb 20, 2009

The QP creme conditioning is an okay alternative, its not as detangling IMO. I use Giovanni smooth as silk poo sometimes to stretch my CON.

HoneyDew · Feb 20, 2009

Roux Alpha 5in1 is also a good replacement, if you can find it.

Almost identical ingredients, as results as my mom told me.

I'm gonna pick up a bottle next time I see one. I love the Porosity Control Condish. :yep:

Wow they really change the whole formula ? Because it's one of my staple

Well, some people who have used the new formula say it smells and works the same. Most of us are boycotting the new formula in protest of the change. :lachen:

kweenameena · Feb 20, 2009

You could try finding some on Amazon or on Ebay.

I fell back in love with Nexxus Moisture Therappe....I found it at CVS.

Rapunzel* · Feb 20, 2009

i love neutrogena triple moisture shampoo :love:

you should try it if u dont like just make sure u have ur receipt

Caramela · Feb 20, 2009

Well, I went out on my lunch break. Even Sally's didn't have the green CON :nono:

I went into another upscale BSS and they didn't have either one (of course because it was "upscale") and then I tried the salon at Wal Mart. They had QP but only a few dusty bottles. The salon lady said they're about to stop carrying it because it doesn't sell and she tried to get me to try Redken Smooth Down or the Mizani Line. I stuck to my guns with the QP ... I wound up getting the Shampoo for Relaxed Hair and the Silk Thermal spray ... I'll try it out on Sunday I guess. So sad about this... I really am. Wait!! I'm on #4 Depression :sad:

Hi HD...is this a detangling shampoo as well?

seemegrow · Feb 20, 2009

Watch out there is a thread running around about Elasta QP being bought out by another company.

LABETT · Feb 20, 2009

GIRL, If you visit SC there is plenty of CON shampoo's in every BSS.
People here dont have to panic yet. :smile:

I don't know what I'll do after, but I have enough to last two years. If I find some more at other sally's I'm going to stock up.

Wonder if shampoo ever expires?

Heck! I may stock up enough to have ten years worth when I'm finished. 3 Huge bottles can last a year and a half or more. I'm talking about the one equivalent to 3 regular sized bottles! And they were on sale but I was broke at the time. All three bottles cost me less than 9 dollars. So if I can find a nother sally's with more, I'm going in there with like 60 bucks and stock up gosh darn !

I've actually thought about what I'll do when I can't find them again...find a place on line that can recreate formulas of favorite shampoos and cosmetics and place a huge order after sending them my last little bit. BAWHAWHAHA! :drunk:

Apparently so. I ended up not using it. I got it because of the claims on the bottle. i looked at the ingredients and i was like :blush:

um, this looks like CON!!

I don't like CON. it is crazy my hair loved it as a girl and teen-eager, but now I don't care for it.

I gave it to my mom, a DIE HARD CON USER. She said she likes this better and started using it instead. And that was even before we found out CON was being discontinued.

LovelyLionessa · Feb 20, 2009

I love the orignal CON. I found some last weekend at an Asian BSS. I tried the Elasta QP Creme Conditioning poo but I didn't care for it as much as CON. It's a shame what CON did with the formula. :nono:

Yep! Elasta QP Creme Conditioning is similar, except it doesn't leave film/ build up and it has a little cleaning power which is cool.
