Q: Is this the original formula of Nexxus Mousse Plus Volumizing Foam Styler in the Gold Can (original formula)?? the new formula in the pink can is not the same and highly inferior to the former formula.
submitted by Cindy - 9 years ago
A: interesting you said that. i thought i ordered the gold can but received it in pink instead. i wasnt sure if it is the same formula and noticed a bit of a difference... i tried a different brand but found that even the pink can is it still better than other brand. but you are right, the gold one is a lot better.
submitted byHomeGirlTraveler - 9 years agoA: Thanks for your question. The gold can is no longer available; we've asked our team to update the photo. We're disappointed that you didn't like the newer formula - please feel free to reach out to our team at consumer.services@unilever.com for assistance. Thanks!
submitted byNexxusExpert - 9 years agoBrand expertA: No, unfortunately it is NOT the same formulation and it is highly inferior. I don't know why Target stopped carrying the original Nexxus Mousse Plus Volumizing Foam Styler in the Gold Can. I haven't found a similar substitute try Biolage Volumizing Mousse. It's better than the Nexxus Pink can IMHO.
submitted bycybermama16 - 9 years agoA: The photo depicting the original product is not what I received--which was the inferior new mousse. I returned the item.
submitted bykfc - 9 years agoA: This is the new formula in the pink can. For my hair it works great but my hair is straight and thinning. The old formula was strong hold and heavier. I like the new one better.

Q: Does this contain formaldehyde releasers?
submitted by Karen - 4 years ago
A: Thanks for your interest! Formulations are subject to change. For the most up to date information, we suggest checking out the ingredients listed on the label prior to purchase. We hope this is helpful. If there is anything else, please feel free to contact us again.
submitted byNexxusExpert - 4 years agoBrand expertA: Frankly, the above answer provided by the NexxusExpert is highly nonspecific, evasive, and might suggest that the formula does contain formaldehyde releasers. Thank you, Karen, for asking this question as the misleading answer provided by NexxusExpert has prompted me to discontinue purchasing any Nexxus product.
submitted byconsumer - 4 years agoA: None of the ingredients listed are formaldehyde releasing. You can easier find that answer by googling. FR ingredient names are listed on many sites.

Q: is it color safe?
submitted by jp - 5 years ago
A: Hi JP! Our Nexxus Mousse Plus Volumizing Foam is recommended for all hair types. You want to dispense about a golf ball size amount in the palm of your hand, and then spread it from your roots to ends of your hair with your hands or a comb. Hope this helps!
submitted byTarget Beauty Consulting - 5 years agoBrand expertA: Thanks for reaching out-that is a great question! Nexxus Mousse Plus Volumizing Foam is safe to use on color-treated hair. Our products have unique technologies that help keep you hair vibrant. If you have any other questions, please reach out to us directly at consumer.services@unilever.com.

I’ve been using Nexxus mousse for years. It’s always had a clean, neutral scent; a scent that wouldn’t linger. This new bottle has such a strong, god-awful scent of magnolia mixed with Bradford pear tree. If you’re in the south, you know what I’m talking about. I absolutely cannot STAND the scent to the point that it makes me gag.

atPinkLady - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
I love this product but I am disappointed in Target’s service and delivery. This item was out of stock in the store so I had it delivered but the container is basically empty. You can see that the item leaked during shipping. No padding or protection in box so it probably bounced around during the delivery process. 151 people in line for online chat and 30 minutes to wait for online support. Cannot use online Fix Issue for this item. On crutches for 10 weeks and unable to drive so basically I am out of luck on my $16 purchase.

Been using this mousse for years and years but the latest can is just terrible. It used to have just a very light, subtle scent but now it's very strong and offensive. I've tried to use it twice and both times I've had to jump back in the shower and shampoo it out. I can't speak to any difference in how the new formula works, as some other reviewers have, because I haven't been able to leave it in my hair long enough to find out. PLEASE go back to the old formula. And if you do go back, let us know because it sounds from the reviews that many of us will no longer be buying until we know that's happened.
Good buy

The new scent is awful, I have used this product for years, I have allergies and I had no issues with this until they changed the formula. As soon as I applied it I immediately got sick, I washed it out and I couldn’t get rid of the smell. Please bring back the old formula. There are a lot of people that can’t tolerate such strong scents.
No longer foamy....

I love the way my hair looks worn this product. I try to wash my hair only every 3-4 days, using this product in my after care routine. I use a moisturizing shampoo I’ve used long before, same conditioner, and after starting to use this product, I’ve noticed my scalp flaking. The mousse dried out my scalp, though I do my best to avoid it even contacting my scalp when applying. I’d love to use this product, but if it comes with flakes in my hair, it’s not worth it. I’m mourning not only the loss of great product, but the loss of money after having bought 2.

I’ve been buying this product for years, and the new scent is very strong and abrasive. I just used some and it’s all I can smell — even overpowering my perfume. Why was the scent changed? I’m afraid I can’t buy this product anymore and need to find some other brand, which I hate. It really has been my go-to mousse for years and it was perfect as-is. Please change the scent back!!

Why, oh why, Nexxus, would you change the formula scent without warning? I’ve been using this product since the beginning, loyally. I use it over my Davines mousse…but this new smell is not for me. You guys should have done your due diligence and put New formula or New fragrance on the package. Please bring back the original. :(
New formula smells HORRIBLE!

I LOVE this product! It seems to have a light scent - nothing I've immediately noticed anyways. It takes a very small amount for it to do it's job in my fine, wavy to slightly curly hair. Once my hair dries, I do feel a little bit of a crunch but I'm assuming I just didn't spread the product through well enough. I usually use a wide tooth comb to help break up any areas that get a tad crunchy feeling and it works out beautifully. I lost weight really fast due to a medical issue and that caused s good chunk of my hair to fall out. Since it's started growing back, I have frizzy looking hair due to all the different looking lengths I've got going on. This mousse tames those frizzies! They aren't nearly as noticeable. I have also noticed this stuff helps bring out more of my natural hair texture too!! Since my hair thinned out and was fine to begin with, I lost a lot of definition. I'm gaining that back but this stuff really enhances my natural texture despite me having fine hair. This is hands down the best stuff I've ever used due to the light hold and volume I get from it highlighting my natural texture. I find after a long day, my hair will look slightly greasy at the end of the night when I use this stuff - I have fine hair though and there are LOTS of products that can do that. Overall, I honestly feel like I found my go-to mousse since it keeps my hair perfectly managed throughout the day.
