Description
Imagine a liquid mousse. I use this whenever I need to evenly distribute volume throughout the hair. I spray this on towel-dried, combed out hair and it instantly volumizes without weighing anything down. Leaves the hair looking shiny and full.
An easy-to-apply alternative for those who have trouble using a traditional mousse, but still want to add thickness and lasting hold after styling.
How to:
1. Apply to towel dried hair before blow drying.
2. Use 5-7 sprays from roots to ends, making sure you apply as evenly as possible.
3. Flip hair upside down while blow drying for extra lift and hold at the root.
4. Once hair is completely dry, style with hot tools as desired.
Tip: This will provide great support, lasting hold and finish when styling with hot tools, which allows you to avoid using hairspray before curling or flat ironing.
Contains Zip-Up Technology™, our proprietary strengthening complex designed to "zip-up" split ends while targeting weak areas of the hair, smoothing the appearance of damaged cuticles and helping to protect hair from environmental stressors and color fade.
cruelty free | color + keratin safe
Free of sulfates, parabens + phthalates

Q: Do I have to apply heat (via blowdrying) to benefit from this product? I prefer air drying.
submitted by KaliM - 6 years ago
A: I think you will see results if you blowdry after spraying this to your hair. I apply this to my hair and let it air dry, and I see no difference whatsoever.
submitted byliz - 5 years agoA: I don't blow dry my hair and I really like this product - just kind of style my hair and let it air dry and fluff up with my fingers when dry

Since I’ve been using this product numerous people have been complimenting me on my hair continuously. Each person has said something similar along the lines that my hair looks longer and fuller. Needless to say I am extremely pleased and will be continuing to use and purchase this product! It also smells divine which is an added bonus!
Love it

I bought this product to use with my air wrap, but I haven’t seen much of a difference. My curls don’t seem to hold much better, or seem more voluminous. I also don’t notice anything bad, like greasier hair etc. so I will continue to use it to see if it makes a difference.
Too Drying

one of the first few ingredients is alcohol. very drying. I didn't like the condition of my hair while using. and No real volume, either.
Same as using nothing

This was a total waste of money. Same results as using no product at all. Total garbage.

I love anything for my hair that is this brand! It has really helped my hair become healthier! I have thin hair and this definitely gave me the volume I need without it making my hair feel dirty and nasty from products! I highly recommend this or any Kristin Ess brand hair product!

This product worked well on my hair compare to the Nexxus thickening spray. Roots lifted and volume was okay. Helped control oil weight. Kinda pricey.
Smell is amazing

I didn’t really notice much added thickness or volume to my thin hair from this. It didn’t make my hair feel dry and the smell is amazing. It’s not the worst product, but didn’t do what I was hoping for.
Leaves a residue in hair, crunchy texture

This product has a strong smell. The scent is nice, but if you are sensitive to strong fragrances, this product won’t be for you. While this doesn’t weigh down my hair, it makes it stiff and crunchy feeling, even if I use a small amount. I have tried to break up the crunch, but find that throughout the day, it hardens (similar to hair spray). I also don’t like the residue that is left on my hair afterwards. This hair did thicken my hair, but not enough to outweigh the cons.
HELPED MY FLAT, THIN HAIR.

loved the volume and fullness this gave my thin, flat hair. it didn't make my hair greasy or sticky. I does give it a textured feel tho. I didn't notice too much of a scent on this.

I've tried many products claiming to add fullness and volume to fine hair, but this one really does! I also love the moderate price and that it has no odor, nor is it sticky.
This does everything it says!!

When your curling routine involves maybe heavier moisturizing, or you use a heavier cream or leave in, using this instead of mousse or foam works AHHMAZINGLY! I LOVE IT!!!

I have long, thin, straight hair and this product worked amazingly. It gave my hair some lift but it also allowed for more support when styling. I sprayed it on my wet hair and blow dryer thoroughly. Idk why so many reviews complain about the smell because I think it smells great.
Not helping with volume

My hair is fine, but I’m not seeing any difference when using this product. It might be protecting my hair from heat while blow drying, but I don’t notice any difference with volume.
Awful

I hated this. I followed directions and it just made my hair feel gross and look greasy. Barely any lift for me. I’m someone that can go 3-4 days without looking greasy, but this made my hair look and feel awful. The smell didn’t bother me.

Great product, not a fan of the scent. Make sure you apply this to wet hair, then low dry and you will get a great result. If your hair is damp dry, then it is sticky.
Do not recommend for sensitive noses

Product does give volume but the scent is VERY strong. It lasts a while! It gave me allergies.. You can also feel the film, it’s very thick. It also did NOT hold style longer than an hour!

Only thing I liked is that this product thickened my hair like she was thick B. The only thing I hated was that it made my hair stiff as in I couldn’t run my fingers smoothly through my hair. I had to continuously brush my hair out all day cause it did not make my hair silky smooth at all. I was afraid my hair would break.
Watch Out for the Sprayer

I have naturally thin hair, and this add a great boost! The sprayer isn’t very accurate, so just be careful not to get it in your eyes. It’s a little unpredictable. I’ve wasted a little bit of product because of this.
