OK...a lot of you guys recommended the Loreal NutriGloss conditioner...and I have it...only to find the A-cone in it!!! Granted, isn't that the one that isn't supposed to have build-up??? Yet, it is STILL a cone and it still won't come out w/ a conditioner alone, right? UGH UGH UGH!!!

Did I miss something that this was apparently CG-friendly??

HELP!

You got the wrong one. There is one that doesn't have any cones in it. I don't know why L'Oreal makes the bottles look the same but for different formulations...they really need to at least have some subtle differences between them. It gets confusing.

does it even have the blue part? does it say for curly and wavy medium to long?

It was brought up recently about the A-cone:

It appears that they've reformulated so the original version without the A-Cone is increasingly hard to find. I know I can't find it where I live it's been replaced by the smaller bottle with the A-cone.

LVPNG now has amodimethicone??

Also the original thread started by BB

L'oreal Vive Pro Nutri Gloss conditioner - I might be in love!

The same thing happened to me, Carrie. The one that you got was probably for "dry, damaged" hair, but apparently, the correct formulation is the one for "curly/wavy" hair. I got this off Drugstore.com, and as you can see in the list of ingredients, it has no cones.

Still frustrating...I'm having to start the whole CG process again because my hair was so ucky.
