Not super impressed
My hair is long and fine, so I'm always looking for volumizing products. This mousse is easy to use, but I wasn't very impressed with the end result. My hair doesn't look any different than it would if I had blow dried my hair without using any product at all. I've attached 2 photos. One shows what ...

Hair Type Wavy Hair
Very good volumizing without big hair. Most surprised how it textured my hair to a nice smooth and healthy looking. Worth trying@
MADE HAIR DRY DRY
Hair Type Wavy Hair
This product was a Huge waste of time and money. After applying to freshly shampooed and conditioned hair and then blow drying on Low with a diffuser, 1/2 way dried my hair became like a brillo pad. Horrible! I immediate had to SHAMPOO OUT AND RECONDITION. Plus the smell is quite strong. Ugh!
Volumizing & Light-to-Medium Hold
Hair Type Wavy Hair
I bought a bunch of different brands of hair products from Ulta and this Volumizing Mousse really does help with volume and has a Light-to-Medium hold. I really like that I can scrunch my hair to show my natural waves or I can blow-dry my hair straight easily with this mousse. It's a bit sticky on the hands but it washes off easily without lasting residue. I'm able to wear 2nd-Day hair with this mousse! I give it a bit of a scrunch, blow-dry and I'm off for another day! Amazing and I will buy this again!

Yuck! Hate this! Dry, crunch, tangly hair.
Hair Type Wavy Hair
I gave this a few tries, styling it in different ways each time and each time the result was the same: awful!! My hair feels like it's never been conditioned before, it feels like it would go up in flames if I even looked at a match. I want to get back in the shower and wash it again. Blegh, in the trash it goes.
Nice

This product is nice but not amazing. It does leave volume but if I use too much it makes my hair a little bit crunchy. I've also used superior volumizing mousse.
