Pretty Serious Problem.

For years - under the watchful eyes of my beloved hairstylist, Doug - I’ve been using THIS:

To achieve THIS:

But when I was running low on Nanowax on Saturday and wanted to grab another bottle after my Brazilian blowout @ Mint Salon in Midtown, they were OUT!  (Gasp!)  I asked Doug when they’d get more in, and he gently broke the news to me that Pureology stopped making it.  ERRRRRRRR…Now, hold that phone!!  WHAT?  They stopped making it?  It’s like Kleenex no longer making tissues, like Willy’s no longer making burritos, like Nickelback no longer making insanely bad music, like the Michelin Man no longer making marshmallows!  (Is that what he makes?) 

Anyway, I flat out refused to believe it and instead ran like a mad woman drove to ULTA as fast as I could only to see THIS:

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Say it isn’t so!!  Pureology’s Nanowax has been an important hair staple for me for YEARS…why now would they stop making their best product?!  It’s like my Abercrombie + Fitch Woods situation all over again, but at least 32x worse.  I don’t know what to do.  I actually bought hairspray yesterday, and can’t stand it.  My hair, Brazilian blowout and all, is having a pretty serious identity crisis.  The blowout makes it look gorgeous, of course, but it’s felt emotionally flat and deflated for days now. 

SOMEONE, ANYONE this is my plea: PLEASE contact me ASAP if you see Pureology’s Nanowax lying around anywhere.  The situation is getting more and more desperate by the hour…

not a laughing matter.

Side Note: Doug DID talk me into buying the sulfate-free Prive Shampoo + Conditioner to prolong my Brazilian blowout, and they’ve been really wonderful!

love that they come in a spray bottle so that they don't spill out when i knock them over in the shower or in my luggage

Also, Doug has been using THIS on my hair recently and I’ve loved it!

Prive's Concept Vert Volumizing Froth

Although it hasn’t been released to the mass market quite yet, people are already obsessed with Prive’s Volumizing Froth, and it’s recently been written up in Vanity Fair: http://alturl.com/7t68p.

While my love for + trust in Nanowax will never completely fade (I’m pretty sure that I’ll be able to find at least one more bottle on the black market w/ all those pirated movies, and kidneys and whatnot), I have confidence in Prive that they will be able to come up with something at least similar to it that I can start to cozy up to…
