Most Helpful Positive Review My must have product! I have been a lover of the John Frieda root booster spray for several years. I had not seen this newer formula so I decided to stick with the brand that I love and hoped it was as good as the other formula I had used but run out of. I am thrilled to say that it has exceeded my expectations and is even better than the previous John Frieda root booster spray for blondes that I have always used. I do use this root booster in conjunction with the shampoo and conditioner from the same line and blow dry my hair upside down to increase volume (I have thin hair that lays really flat on my head if I do not use product to liven it up). I have nothing bad to say about it. There is an obvious difference in my hair when I use this.
Most Helpful Critical Review Hate it! I have seen someone use a root pump before and her hair looked no different, but had lift. I wanted this same look so I purchased this product because it is affordable. I sprayed a little on my roots while blow drying my hair with a round brush and it made my clean hair look greasy! Then when it was completely dry, my roots looked stiff and as though I hadn't washed my hair in a day or two. It looked as though I had put hair spray on my roots and then brushed it. Not a good look, I am very disappointed.

I have fine thin hair. Seems like i should be a perfect candidate for this product but it really weighed my hair down. Noticeably flatter than after using other products. Will not buy any of this line again.

Cubs fan from Gretna NE
This product works great on my fine thin hair. It gives it lift and makes it look fuller. Hope they never quit making this product.
Gives a nice lift to my thick hair 5
Jen C from WA
I accidentally bought this not realizing it was a volumizer. I have extremely coarse straight hair on top and under it is wiry and coarse. Despite it, the added volume isn't too bad and it actually gives it life

yes! 5
Rivergirl from NY
I have fine color treated shoulder length hair. Most products weigh my hair down. I use this with hot rollers or blow drying. It gives me lift without stiffness or sticky and the lift lasts. Have used this for years and will continue.
This is a MUST if you have thin, fine hair!! LOVE IT! 4

I have a lot of hair, that is fine in texture but thick in volume. This product works great at providing volume at the roots.

Perfect to use with my volumizer styling tool
THIS PRODUCT WORKS GREAT!!! 5
Casa from MI
I finally found a product that adds volume to the crown and doesn't weigh down my very fine hair. THIS PRODUCT WORKS GREAT adds volume to fine hair. It even makes my hair feel a little thick. Have spent tons on hair products looking for what this product does for me. gonna stock up on this product.

Just used this for the first time and didn't notice a difference in my hair at all. Returning it and trying something else. The search continues!

I have very fine flat hair, but after using this product before drying it gives me volume and my hair looks alive 💕
Good not great 3
Bella from Pa
If applied on the roots and u blow dry it does give a lift and some volume.. however if u let your hair air dry it doesn't do that much. Hair stays fairly soft and does leave any residue. Packaging is standard, price per product amount is good. I'll use this randomly but probably won't repurchase. If your hair is on the thick side and u just want a little lift you will find this product useful.

Did not work at all for me... 2
Bandycaine1946 from Delaware
Bought this to help give some volume to my short thin hair - did not work at all - I even bought the shampoo and used it also - it made my hair even more limp and flat
Good for fine hair 5
CarolynMat from Wilmington, DE
I have very fine, straight hair with no body. This is a good product for a great price. I consider this my "second-tier" of hair products. I use the higher priced premium brands as my "first-tier" products when I am going someplace special.

Clean feeling volume 4
Colorgal from New York
I've been buying this for several years not w and I love it! Most volumizing products make my fine, straight hair feel dirty. This gives me a natural looking lift, yet I hardly notice it's there.
Great product! 5
