Most Helpful Positive Review This product gave me HOPE! For the last year I have struggled with my damaged hair. Just a year and a half go I literally had mermaid hair. I never had to do anything to it. I had the perfect beach waves and curls. Then I decided to start lightening it and practically chopped it all off. That was the worst decision EVER. From dying it and constant heat from my straightener(which I recently found was burnt out and frying my hair) my hair has loss all of its natural spunk. I can hardly hold a curl with how fried my ends are. My hair used to be my prized possession and compliments would happen daily. Since the destruction of my golden locks my confidence in the revival of my hair has plummeted. That was until my coworker gave me a sample of Don't Blow It. I used it the next day after my shower and was blown away with how instant my hair was reacting to it. Not only was my hair scrunching into a slight wave but I had a handful of curls appear out of no where! The next two days were bliss as I received compliments left and right. They all kept telling me how healthy, and natural my hair looked! On top of having damaged hair I also have a sensitive scalp, so many products make me break out in the ichies. Yet, not Don't Blow It!! I am completely AMAZED at this product and the hope it has given me. I was coming to terms with never getting my curls back, and it was devastating. Now, I'm leaving doubt behind, excited to have a second chance at beautiful hair again. Thank you Bumble and Bumble!!!
Most Helpful Critical Review No results I'm not sure what I'm missing here. I bought this product, hoping it would give some volume without adding more damage to my hair (it's pretty thrashed at the ends). I wasn't expecting the results a blowout could give, but I see no difference at all from using this. I may as well have air dried my hair with no product at all. I even watched the videos and applied some recommended techniques while my hair was drying. I'm very disappointed.

I have the shampoo and use this after shampooing when I want my hair to air dry. It gives me body and shine and leaves my hair soft and manageable.
Disappointed. Don't waste your money 1
Mchley from Ky
I usually don't leave reviews, but felt compelled this time. This is waaayyy too expensive and doesn't do what it says. It left my hair so greasy I had to wash it out. Smells good... but doesn't work.
Finally! 5
Kim86 from Michigan
I use this with the Invisible Oil spray with great results! I put a very small amount of invisible oil in my hands and rub together and apply only to the ends. I use a dime sized amount of this product from my ears down (my hair is pretty long) and scrunch in a microfiber towel while I apply my makeup. I then take my hair out and let it dry the rest of the way. Wow! Not limp, not frizzy. This stuff is amazing for hair like mine that needs encouragement to wave but flattens out with heavy products. It is hard to find something that works like this!!!
Don't bother 1
Sally from Phoenix
I hate it. I wanted to love it. What a waste of money. I tried it three times.
It left my hair greasy feeling and weighed down, like several days after a wash. I tried using less, I tried using more all with the same results. Don't waste your money.
The Best for Fine Curly Hair 5
Jilty from NJ
This is a huge frizz tamer without being heavy or sticky. I have tight, soft fine curls. For us Italian curls who don't have a thicker texture, this is amazing. It also doesn't irritate my sensitive scalp. Love!
So far would not recommend 1
Chicago from Chicago
I didn't see any change. It seemed to weigh my hair down a bit - I wish I didn't spend the money on it. I've used it a number of times - I'll keep trying but so far disappointed.
Great product for curly hair... don't blow it 5
Ann from New York
I have been looking for a product to give my curly hair life without leaving it with that crunchy feeling. This is it!!..... Beautiful curls and no crunch ...also great volume.
Great for Scrunching, styles wet or with diffuser 5
WENDY from WA
This is a great wash and go product. It styles wet or with a diffuser on cool setting
My new best BB find. 5
Karen from Okeechobee, Florida
I am using this everyday. My super fine hair has texture for the first time!
Keep returning to this 5
Heatheradair from Seattle
I have zillions of hair products. I'd call myself a "recovering Curly Girl Method" person who's not necessarily opposed to silicones. I REALLY want to use a single product (easy in the 'curly community' to get obsessive about cocktailing products and ending up with 4 different types of STUFF in your hair). I have very fine, fairly thin, quite long (colored) hair that can be very curly (if I really put effort in). Dries mostly wavy when I just let it air dry and don't fuss too much. This. Stuff. Is. Magical. for when I simply want to wash my hair, toss a single product in, air dry it and have hair that doesn't FEEL like it has product in it. This adds some definition, some volume and sole wave definition without weighing down my fine hair or leaving a cast. If you're expecting much hold: you'll be disappointed. If you expect a ton of curl enhancement: you'll be bummed. But if you want your fine hair to feel a little fuller, your hair to have a bit more "personality" and your waves/curls to look nicely clumped without crunch—this is your jam. Keep trying other products and return to this, constantly. On my third bottle (would be great if they sold a larger size. I go thru a ton of this).
Heatless product 5
Kate the Lazy Girl from LI, NY
I almost bought this a few months ago, but a store associate recommended the devacurl wave leave-in. Despite wanting to try this then, I went with the other product and wish I hadn't. I just bought this b&b don't blow it and I LOVE IT! I've tried a lot of air dry products. Nothing has given me great air dry style like this has. I wash, brush, then scrunch this into the body of my hair and throw it into a bun for a bit. I go to sleep with damp hair and wake up with beautiful waves. This really seems to bring out the best in my medium wavy hair!
Bb products are the best! 5
Becmac from MA
I bought this full size after receiving a sample. It does exactly what it's supposed to do..adds some texture and makes my hair straight (ish) on non-blowdry days. If I through my hair up wet or twist, once dry it gives me effortless beach-y waves
No 1
T from Chicago IL
I had high hopes for this product & I hated it. It made my hair very dry, frizzy & brittle feeling. I immediately returned the product.
Finally Found My Perfect Product! 5
Katt from Shawnee, OK
I've always wanted to let my fine wavy frizzy hair dry naturally. I've tried so many products that didn't work. My hair was just too frizzy. The Bumble and Bumble website suggested Don't Blow It (fine hair) and Curl Defining Cream. The Curl Defining Cream left my hair stiff. Don't Blow It was the answer to my 60 years of prayer! My hair is long and layered. This product leaves my hair soft, bouncy and frizz free. This is the ONLY product that has ever worked for my unruly hair. I don't have to blow dry, straighten and wear a pony tail all the time!
Worked best with blow dry 4
Posi vibes from DC
For me, it didnt do anything when I air dried it. I mean, I noticed a difference, but not much.
I got a small sample in one of those Ulta promos, so I kept playing with it.
I have finally learned it is best on my fine hair with a blow out. It makes my hair super feathery that way and really shiny. I ended up buying full bottle after that. It doesn't have a heat protector in it though, so I am shopping for that now and trying not to break the bank while still getting a cruelty free brand.
Been using this for years, still love it! 5
lala237 from Minneapolis, MN
I have fine, straight hair that if I let air dry, is super lifeless and slippery. This is solved by styling products that require a blow dry, but I don't like blow drying every time I wash my hair. I tried this creme on a whim a few years ago to see if it would improve the texture of my hair when I leave it to air dry. IT DOES. OMG IT DOES. This product adds texture without blow drying, but my hair is still soft - the bottle is not lying when it says it doesn't feel like you have product in your hair. I have yet to find anything comparable to this product by other brands so I keep re-purchasing this. I go through probably 2-3 bottles a year, the con is I definitely wish this came in a bigger size.
Good for fine hair plus heatless curls 5
Mae from Texas
I received a sample of this product and it's amazing! I've been doing heatless curls for the past week but most styling products recommend you blow dry your hair and I wanted something without blow dries. When I saw this I was so excited. Follow instructions accordingly. I twist my hair using the tie that wraps around a bathrobe. I sleep with it and unravel it in the morning And my hair feels so soft and curls look natural. It feels like I don't have any product at all. This product will help me maintain a healthy hair since I'll be avoiding heat products; thank you for this! Oh and my hair is super super fine and straight. With this- after my heatless curls I have volume that LASTS ALL DAY! Also, this withstands TEXAS heat and humidity! Triple plus!
Didn't work 3
Jnoid from Long Island, NY
This did not make my hair less frizzy when air drying. So disappointed
Not for fine, super straight hair 2
BoyMama from Illinois
I had such high hopes for this product! My hair is naturally very fine (although I have a lot of it) and super straight. Like, no natural wave or volume whatsoever. This did nothing to add any additional volume or wave to my hair, despite excessive twisting. I will say, though, that it didn't weigh it down or grease it up at all. Just didn't see the results I'd hoped for.
Staple 5
staycp71 from Chicago
This should be a staple in every woman's cabinet. Makes my hair full of body and smells fantastic. I give all my girlfriends a bottle for their birthday's :)
Holy Grail product 5
Leigh from ct
I have tried every product under the sun to manage my very fine but wavy/curly and frizzy hair. THIS IS IT. I have stopped using heat on my hair and just run a dollop of this through damp hair and I'm good to go. Leaves me with shiny, bouncy volume.
I probably won't buy again 1
Meg79 from Texas
I'm so sad this product doesn't work for me at all. It makes my hair look flatter than it already is. Maybe I'm doing something wrong?
Good *if* used right 4
Beth from Portland, ME
I have fine, medium-length hair that holds a wave under duress, and the way I make this product work for me is by wrapping my wet hair in a towel for about 10 minutes, then taking it down and squeezing/scrunching about a quarter-sized amount into uncombed waves. Usually it only holds well for about 12 hours, so you may want to use a hairspray after it dries. Overall, it smells nice and my hair stays soft, I would just hope for something a little more amazing for the price.
It works 4
janickab from Irvine, CA
I was really surprised to see that this product works. After my first try I could still see some frizz, more or so the next day, but I'm sure once you figure out the right amount all will be fine.
Wanted to love it. I'll need to play with it a bit more. 2
LilSis from Pacific Northwest
I've only tried it once thus far, on my towel dried hair which always looks good if I blow-dry and always looks awful if I don't. Wispy, thin, flat, straggly, aging. I've used styling mousse, styling cream, everything... thought Bb's Don't Blow It would be the miracle I needed (the name suggests there are others like me, that was worth something!) but alas.... I will keep trying, maybe there's a trick. This coming summer I'll be full time off-grid camping, so I'm searching for a reason not to shave it all off (yikes). I still recommend the product because anything is worth a try!
