Description
I love mousse! This one is epic because it gives so much volume with no sticky, tacky feeling so I can create the ultimate hair flip! It keeps the hair voluminous and bouncy and rinses clean leaving no residue behind.
Plump it up! I use this at the root before blow drying to get maximum lift and the best hair flips ever.
How to:
1. Apply a golf ball-sized amount of mousse on wet hair, evenly all over at the root.
2. Apply whatever is left on your hands to the rest of the hair.
3. Blow dry with a round brush or with your head flipped upside down for maximum volume and bounce.
Tip: Avoid applying this on partially dried hair. Best results come when applied to freshly washed hair.
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

I had thought this seemed like a good product if I didn’t get too much on the ends of my fine hair, or it would get too stiff. I did not use for a few months, and now nothing comes out of the can. There is at least half (or more) product left in the can that I will end up throwing out. What a waste!

I realized I was using too much product which left my hair greasy after a day. My hair maintained bounce and volume for days once I began using the recommended amount.

This is the worst hair mousse I've ever used. Left my hair feeling sticky and looking like straw. Strong perfumy smell gives me a headache. Volume? Nope. If you like helmet head and dull, sticky hair, this product is for you.
Easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have pretty fine hair and I struggle to find a mouse that doesn’t weigh it down and do the opposite of volumizing. This product works just like advertised and helps me get the volume I have been searching for.
Awesome product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this mousse for a couple of weeks now and it is a game changer! I can never find one that doesn’t make my hair feel crunchy and doesn’t make my hair look oily…until now! It gives my fine hair the volume it needs!
It's ok

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a hairstylist, I like to try different hair products just to see how it works and then I can recommend or not to my clients. Well, this volumizing mousse is not that great, because it's getting stuck to the brush and pulls your hair in process of drying. But it makes your hair feel thicker and lifted, of course, hair feels a little bit stiff because of the hold in the product. It will be harder to dry hair yourself.
Great volume

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My hair tends to be lacking in the volume area. I got this mousse to help with that and on my, my hair has great volume after trying this the first time. Washed my hair, then put some of the mousse on before i blow dried my hair. My hair looked and felt great.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This volumizing mousse works pretty good. It does add some volume which is great and it also smells really nice. You don’t need a lot, a little goes along way. It doesn’t leave a crunchy feeling or any residue and it seems to hold up throughout the day.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] this has been a great mousse for my hair. I like the scent of it and how easily it works on my wet hair. once I dry my hair, I do have curl and some volume to my hair. Definitely like the curl aspect which is a bonus.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm pretty stuck in habit for my mousse but have started trying to branch out. This isn't the hard, crunchy hold that I'm used to, but it's a good control. Smelled good, applied easily and I was still happy with it towards the end of the day :) give it a try!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have wavy-curly thick hair and use mousse to help hold my curl. I really like this product and it is ALMOST perfect! It gives soft hold and plenty of volume. It also smells amazing great. It does dry a little bit tacky and has more of a matte finish, but those are my only complaints. I need to play around with using different amounts and see if that helps with the overall effect. I will continue to use this and buy again, however!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] At first I was using too much and it made my hair pretty stiff in parts. But once I figured out the right amount, it's been great. I like to use the soft curling wand that I sleep in and then add this in the morning for fullness, and I love my hair. Smells good too.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my new Kristin Ess Instant Lift Volumizing Mousse. The smell of this mousse is amazing. It has a nice light hold but also keeps its shape. It's not flaky or crusty. And it washes out easily. My favorite mousse so far. I definitely recommend trying it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My hair is long and naturally wavy. I found this mousse to be not sticky or tacky however it only held my curls for a couple of hours. Then it fell flatter than ever. The scent of the product is light, barely noticeable.
Just okay

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I haven't used mousse in a long time because I never liked the feeling of it in my hair when the product dried. I would say this product is better than most in that sense, but it didn't really add any volume more than I get when I use a diffuser. I'm just not a fan of putting products in my hair, I guess.
Best mousse!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This mousse is great! I used this on damp hair and blowed dried and styled. My hair had lots of volume but didn't feel weighed down and didn't feel stucky. My hair felt like I didn't have mousse in it but looked twice as full as normal. It's the best mousse I've used!
