I think Modern salon and anyone else who promotes these diverted lines or these line that are owned by Procter and Gamble
should leave our business for all they care about is making money on the backs of stylists who are either unaware or apathetic to
the harm (selling in salon and at the grocery store, drug stores etc.) that these huge conglomerates are doing to our business.
Bumble and Bumble are at the store now, Moroccan oil, Big Sexy, American Crew, Nexxus (Unilever), Paul Mitchell. And then
they have the nerve to lie and say salons or spot buyers are diverting!!! Folks only manufacturers have enough SKUs to sell that
much quantity, HELLO! FIGHT P&G (Goldwell now) LOREAL, UNILEVER ETC. DON"T BUY THEIR BRANDS
