Most Helpful Positive Review Works well on my flat, fine hair. I got this half off on the Beauty Hair Days a couple of months ago (to reach the threshold for free shipping on another item, lol), and actually fell in love with it. I didn't know how to use mousse properly for my entire life, and I'm 24, until I got this.
Because this is a "heat activated" mousse, I apply while my hair is wet (after Living Proof leave in spray for addtl heat protection) and towel dried out of the shower, running my fingers through and tousling; then I flip upside down and blow dry. While my hair is still slightly damp, I can style it the way I want (curls hold especially well--my hair is naturally straight and flat).
I've noticed that after I use this product, the roots of my hair will stick up about 1/4 of an inch, which is much more than my usual 0.0 inch. That makes my hair look incredibly NATURALLY voluminous!
Most Helpful Critical Review meh Depends on your hair type how this will work on you. it gave me a slight lift, but made my hair crunchy and it fell out so terribly that I thought I would be bald. For my sister's very thin hair, it only made it greasy with no volume whatsoever. overall I don't recommend. the slight lift is not worth massive amount of breakage.

My fav volume mousse for curly hair! 5
AB from Arizona
You have to use this with a blow dryer. You will not get any results except sticker hair unless you use one. I have curly 3b hair that is medium thickness but lacks volume. I scrunch this in my hair and use a diffuser and I'm telling you- it's magic! It stays full all day and helps my curls have longer hold. It does have a texture, it's thickening mousse! It's going to leave your hair feeling a little different but for me it doesn't bother me at all. It actually just makes it feel a little thicker and not as smooth but in no way does it dry my hair out. It's an expensive purchase, but in my opinion worth it. I wash my hair every 2-3 days and I've had this for at least 6 months. A little goes a long way!

Not much for thickening 1
Liz from Chi
I have long fine wavy hair and this stuff make my hair feel gross. I don't see any volume or body with this mousse. Not worth the money.
Less is more! 5
Kaity from NC
The first time I used this I used way too much. My hair was straight up STICKY, a mess to blow dry and brushing was impossible. Second time around, I used about a palm's worth of product, flipped my head upside down, and applied from ends to the root. My hair still felt gritty, but looked great! For the first time probably ever, my hair was able to hold a curl without an entire can of hairspray. I recommend this 100%!

Makes my hair look very greasy 3
anything_grapefruit from Earth
I apply the foam onto damp hair from root to tip then blow-dry as the instructions say, and not only does it not add any volume, but it also makes my hair look super greasy even though I literally just washed it! 10/10 don't recommend.
smells really bad 3
Amber from Everett WA
I've tried to like this product for the past few weeks and I just can't get over how much it smells!!! even if it did do something for my hair, which it doesn't, it smells so badly I can't even get past it.
It takes practice. 5
Scarlett from Dothan, AL
Ok, so the first time I tried this, I hated it. It smells ahhhhhmazing but I realized the first time that I used it, that I used way too much. It made the hair on my scalp impossible to maneuver and work with. So I washed my hair again and started over. I realized that it doesn't take much from the root to tip to give volume. The second time around, I'm in love. I used half of what I used the first time and it made all the difference. This stuff has given my postpartum, thin lifeless hair magic again. I'm telling you buy it and play with it because when I put my Olivia garden roller brush and my blow dryer to my scalp, it gave me 1980s volume and my hair was so touchable and soft. I realized that I just used too much. This stuff is gold in a bottle. Buy it now!
Excellent for fine hair! 5
ellesbietta from North Carolina
Ok, this product is shockingly good! I have a medium amount of fine wavy to curly hair. This mousse makes my hair look much fuller! I use it by itself, with curl cream, or with a straightening balm. For me, I'd say it is about 50% fuller, not twice as much, but that is actually perfect for me. Whether curly or straight, my hair looks healthy and bouncy. There is *no* greasiness, crunchiness, or deflation later in a day. It even looks good second day! I am very impressed.
Dirty feeling hair. 2
Liz from Chicago
I have thin hair on top and thicker towards the bottom. It's just made my hair feel clumpy globby gross. Blow dryer made it more challenging as it just pulls my hair as I use the round brush for some more body.
Hair felt tacky stiff and filmy yes volume and hold 3
je ra from pueblo, az
I don't like my hair to feel producty so every new mousse trial is a risk. this does give thickness to the hair and helped my next day curling iron hold the curl, but at the cost of hair feeling filmy, tacky, stiff, instead of soft and shiny. i returned it
Great product. 5
Cindy from Ohio
Use sparingly! Works great for all day lift and volume.
This is my new mouse 5
Shelly from FL
Use it for volume for my thin hair

Melissa from Tigard, Oregon
I have tried so many different products over the years to get my baby-fine blond hair some lift that actually works. I was buying something else at Ulta and picked this up as an impulse buy figuring it would go on my "fail" list. Wow, was I wrong. A little goes a long way. This combined with my other new love the new Dryvar Single Shot brush and I actually have great volume. It's not inexpensive, but to me the ROI is on point.
Love It! 5
Peanut from South Carolina
I have fine hair that tends to lay flat. Most products make my hair feel dirty and looking dull. I live in a high humidity which exacerbates the situation. This product made my hair appear thicker with volume just as advertised. It looks shiny and feels so soft. What a wonderful surprise! I have a box full of failures under my sink. Finally I have found sucess.
OMG love this! 5
Emily from Lafayette
This stuff is absolutely amazing! I've been using it for a little over a week now and it has made styling my hair soo much better!! For me the more volume the better and this definitely did the trick!
Will buy again and again 5
Kathy from NYC
Best purchase ever.
I have very fine, flat hair and I would usually not use products on my hair as it would always add weight and make me feel like my hair is dirty.
I am IN LOVE with this product. It is lightweight but still delivers a nice volume. It does not leave residue. And it is very easy to use. 3 reasons for me to buy it again.
So Much Volume 5
MegB117 from Raleigh, NC
I have fine, thin, oily hair. This mousse is a miracle worker. I have never seen my hair look so full! I am so excited about this product. It is now a must for me. The volume stayed all day as well!
GET THIS PRODUCT! 5
The Blonde Brigade from Jacksonville, FL
The perfect mousse! Leaves the hair with the perfect amount of volume without weighing it down! Highly Recommend!
I would buy this if you are looking for full volume! 5
Nikki from NY
Use a gulf ball size in wet hair and blow-dry! It gives the best result for fullness and adds shine! It smells amazing!!!
Would definitely buy again! 5
Imogen from Los Angeles, CA
I don't normally like mousses as feel like they leave my hair feeling heavy and greasy, this was the total opposite, very lightweight, giving my hair great texture and volume whilst being easy to use
