Love the unscented line! This was a new find for me and I really love it as a stronger hold than the cream when needed.

I learned that my hair is slightly wavy, and heard this was good for fine hair. And wow! I had no idea my waves could be this pronounced. I do get the feeling that if I use this everyday it might dry my hair out. I'll use it ~4x a week. Still great!

Ive been using so manh products to learn what works for my mix wave and curly hair. I founf the og one of this but i didnt like the smell and it worked ok. BUT THIS ONE… omg. No fragrance (which i love) and it actually holds my hair. Im still trying to find ways to prevent frizz unfortunately this doesnt tame it that much for me but it helps my curls last for days.

I have a mast cell disorder, and I'm allergic to most every haircare and skincare product out there. This fragrance-free, protein-free mousse is the very best one on the market! It's so unique. It is THE ONLY fragrance-free mousse I have found that doesn't contain cocamidopropyl betaine, a so-called gentle amidoamine surfactant which I am extremely allergic to. Fragrance-free hair products are so necessary. Protein-free is great both for allergies, and for my low-porosity, fine, but high density, 2c-3a, medium-length, wavy/curly hair. A little bit goes a long way with this mousse. I find it has much more hold than it claims to have. Most mousses I've tried are just the opposite in this regard. I part my hair into two sections, and scrunch one tiny pump into each side, or section of my hair before drying with a diffuser. I use the SEEN Fragrance Free Blowout Cream as a curl cream before this product. I've never had such incredible curl definition, or gotten more compliments than I have while using these two products together. I find that this mousse does not work if I air-dry my hair. It makes my hair look stringy and crunchy, even if I scrunch out the crunch. There is no crunch to be scrunched out when I blow-dry my hair with a diffuser. But I still scrunch my hair out with the No Nothing Fragrance Free hair oil, just in case. Using this product to air dry my hair is the only time I have ever experienced a cast, or crunch effect with any other hair product, even the ones that claim to be strong hold. I normally wash my hair every daily, because my scalp is very oily and my hair is too low-porosity to refresh. But if you refresh your hair, I've found that spraying your hair lightly with distilled water, scrunching it with a TINY amount of this mousse, finger-rolling any curls that look weird, diffusing until dry, and scrunching it out with an oil works better than any method I've ever tried.

As a curly haired girl myself, I know that we curly haired girls are looking for a light mouse that will both define our curls and avoid frizz. This product will NOT do that, it will actually do the opposite. When I first tried it, I followed the instructions and put it on wet to damp hair and let it air dry. I put it in my roots to create volume and the mids and ends to define curls and prevent frizz in those areas. I put a little more on the back of my head because that's where I get the most frizz. I let it completely air dry before touching it, and when i did, I cannot tell you how both sticky and hard my hair was. It felt so disgusting. I even hurt to pull apart and try to comb through. IT felt so terrible that, that same day I washed my hair again because the feeling of this product in my hair was so intolerable. Because I did not want to waste the product I started using it to lay down my baby hairs. At some point it dropped on my floor, which mind you is carpet, the top broke. The dispenser no longer works. Therefore the packaging is cheap and badly built if it going to break with just one tumble on carpet. Would Not Recommend!!!!!
