CREME OF NATURE..Discontinued (APO BHM Forum):CON Users come inside!

⏳ Limited Access:

Register today to view all forum posts.

What did they tell the ladies at CON? Did you type a script for them to read? :giggle:
I told them to tell the woman that they are calling on behalf of their wife and their shampoo is being messed up because they are adding sulfates and jacking up the price. These guys here will do anything. I work with a bunch of pranksters.
 
OK..this proves that the world is about to come to an end....I think I can hear the Locusts in the distance.

THIS IS WHY I AM A PRODUCT JUNKIE! You can't aford to get too attached to something because you never know when it will be ripped from your shampoo and conditioner covered hands!

Off to make phone calls, write letters and e-mails AND STOCK UP!
 
Your kidding.
Is this some type of reccesion thing where these companies are needing to stop making products!?
Oh the black products will be first to go if thats so :nono:

Breakthru discontinued last year or so. I think they replaced it with their Oil Recovery line.
 
Hello everyone. This is a thread that my sister started on BHM. I am going to copy and paste it from BHM and hopefully you guys can add to the cause. TIA.

The title was "Creme of Nature is GONE"

...Unless, we can come together and do something about it.

I hate to inform the trusty CON users that the old CON shampoos (the red and green bottles) are now discontinued. You can still find them at some BSS and some grocery stores for the time being or until the stock runs out, but after a while they will be no more. They are now replacing it with the new "Organic" shampoos. Not only are the ingredients totally different, but the new shampoo contains 3 sulfates (which the old CON had NONE) and the price has jumped approx. 2 dollars (from 2.63 to 4.54, in my area).

Not to mention it only has 2 "certified" organic ingredients.


I first read about this on LHCF, and didn't believe it. But I called CON's customer service line about 10 minutes ago and found out that this is true. The old CON shampoo will no longer be available.

If you're anything like me and you want this shampoo back all you have to do is make a quick 2 minute call. The customer service rep that I spoke to told me that there would be a chance that the marketing team will rethink their decision. But as will anything, there is strength in numbers. I already called and told them how I felt, but 1 call is not enough. So that's why I am urging ALL of you to call the CON team and just express your displeasure. All you have to do is state that you are displeased that CON has discontinued the old CON poo/that you've used it as a child/ that you won't be buying from CON ever again/whatever your reasons, etc. Even if you do not use it and/or don't plan to use it, we could still use your help.

I told them that I was a member of various hair boards so they are expecting your calls lol. I am so sick of these companies messing up a good thing. CON has been around for YEARS, so why would they do this?

Share this with anyone that you like. Here is the number and other information. Ladies, please don't let this one go. The product was such a good product. It was cheap, didn't contain any sulfates, and had great ingredients all of which is now being taken away.

I have a thread around here talking about how that organics crap almost made me bald. I lost a ridiculous amount of hair with that mess. It completely destroyed my hair (for a minute.) :wallbash:
 
Breakthru discontinued last year or so. I think they replaced it with their Oil Recovery line.

Oh okay :lachen: Went Overboard

I hadnt even tried it yet, it was just a possible alternative :lachen:


So now we have

Roux Alpha 5 n 1 (which i cant find on the internet....is it Roux porosity controll shampoo?)...but idk about Roux since i think their both very close under the same brand since they both have porosity controll with the same ingredients, and Honeydew said the shampoo was about the same...It would be great if they changed one and left the other but idk

Elasta Qp Creme Conditoning (cant even find this everywhere :nono: Never know when they'll discontinue :nono:)

I'm still able to find the Breakthru in some of the BSS's in my neighborhood though.

I know they changed the look of the Breakthru bottle but it's still the same orange color etc. That's weird to me. Why bother changing the look of the bottle if it's discontinued anyway.

That's interesting. I guess I'll have to rack up on that too. *sigh*

best price - better thant he BSS: http://www.metrobeauty.com/Hair-Car...ve-Shampoo.html?CFID=5892908&CFTOKEN=96798178

I just ordered 2 bottle for my mom last week - $5 shipping.

EDITED TO ADD:

The porosity control shampoo is NOT the same. Totally different. The Alpha is just like CON.
 
I just completed my call.

I asked the Rep if the products were being replaced with the new Organic line.

Obviously she has received a few calls because her response was "Just where are you getting this information?" To which I replied "Trusted sources" :look:

She seemed a bit bothered. Her name was Jean. :lol:

You should have said "Just answer the d^%$ question!"
 
OMG, thank you ladies so much.

That product has to be there for my future daughters' hair. They know they need to stop playin with a black woman and her hair. Okay, that was a stereotype, but I am so glad you guys are down!
 
Alright ladies what is our backup plan just in case these mo fo's did discontinue CON. We need to find out an equilivent shampoo. What else is out there that we could use with similar ingredients???

Dear Crème of Nature Representative:
I recently learned that you are planning to discontinue your original line of Crème of Nature Products. I must say that I am absolutely OUTRAGED to hear this! I have been using this shampoo since I was a little girl and I am now 35! It is the ONE product that I have been able to use faithfully over the years to keep my hair healthy and well conditioned, it is the absolute foundation of my hair care regime I have recommended this product to SO many people and they too absolutely love it and attribute their new found hair health to this product.
I have tried several products from your organic line and they all pale in comparison to the original line. It is sad to say that is you follow thru with your decision to discontinue this line, I will not longer purchase your products.
I think you will soon see what a cult following this hair care line has. I know that my letter of complaint is not the first and certainly will not be the last!
PLESE DO NOT DISCONTINUE THE ORIGINAL CRÈME OF NATURE LINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sincerely,

Thats good....you should say something about the sulfates though if your not finished with it.
I dont have a fax...wish i did. But the call will be there daily
 
Thanks HoneyDew!!! Hopefully we can get a good list going.

Off topic~ How on this green earth did you know that your co-workers are on the LHCF? HAHAHAHAHAHA I cracked up.

Girl, I am the network administrator here. There are a lot of hits to the site from IP addresses that are not mine. :rolleyes: One of my co-workers went on a rampage once blocking sites and blocked LHCF. Oh HECK NO! LOL I fixed that. Carry on co-workers! I support LHCF surfing during work hours! LOL

I did not go search who the IP addresses belonged to though. Part of me just did not want to know! LOL Then it would be weird when I have to deal with the person. LOL

So right now the Roux Aplha, Breakthru (its discontinued but you can still find it in BSS's Esq.2b was saying), Elasta Qp creme, and Oscar Blandi
 
OMG, ya'll are not playing:lachen::lachen:

I feel you though. i like CON too. I never had a shampoo make my hair feel the way it does. I'm just sad it took me so long to start using it.

If they discontinue it, that would be a real dumb move because after all the phone calls and letters they KNOW they are gonna lose out on alot of customers.:yep:
 
Y'all almost gave me a heart attack. I was trying to get work down when I saw CREME OF NATURE DISCONTINUED go by on Ispy. Not a good feeling.

I have to run out and get some for my twist out tomorrow. My mother *loves* this stuff. If they discontinued it she'd probably shave her head bald.
 
Ya'll weren't playing about hitting up the shampoo were you!!:lachen: I just went to the website and clicked 'Buy now' on the ultra moisturizing shampoo (green bottler) and guess what it said?? 'OUT OF STOCK'

Although it does look like this new line is just a new prodcut and they may continue to sell the old products.

I'm still going to the BSS this afternoon and stocking up:yep:

I bought some... :sekret:

I dont even use that stuff but if yall pitching a fit about it, then I need it in my life.
 
Oh okay, so you haven't used the shampoo yet?

Shoot, I wanted a review.:grin:

The shampoo actually looks and smells great, but Im broke right now:nono:. I plan to pick up a whole set of shampoo and conditioner and leave in when I get paid in a few weeks though.:drunk:

BTW they give you your money back when you buy one of them, its a mail in rebate!
