4kidsmom - 8 days ago
If I could give this product a zero I would. My 14 year old used this product once a week ago and has been experiencing extreme hair loss ever since. She’s is so upset and I am trying to figure out how to help her. She usually has super thick hair and now you can see how much it has thinned out. I’d love to send a complaint to the company because this is not ok.

I love the product but this is the second time I buy a bottle and the lid breaks so I can’t get the product out and there’s so much product still in the bottle. I don’t want to keep buying a new one.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is one of my favorite drugstore curl options. It has a great holds doesn’t make my hair feel too crunchy. I have 2b/2c hair and it does a good job of defining the waves.

Restored Curly Madam - 1 month ago, Verified purchaser
I brushed out my 2b-3b waves/curls (fine, thin hair) for years. The last few months i started to figure it out again. I wanted products that don't have alcohol. After a ton of research and a few flops, I tried this. I want to cry I'm so happy. The price is right. I used one pump worth through my lengths while in the shower and my hair was soaking wet. Also a teeny tiny amount of the NYM gel. This mousse gives me volume, my curls are slightly held, but my hair is soft and bouncy (as promised). I'm now a NYM Curl Talk believer.

Smells like a sneeze

chellejae - 1 month ago, Verified purchaser
It smells like someone’s spit after they have chewed Big Red cinnamon gum. Smells kind of like someone’s sneeze. Honestly smells gross I expected better. The hold is ok, it’s more on the sticky side and results in crunchier curls that are a little more difficult to break the cast on. I won’t be buying this again but I suppose in a pinch it does an ok job

Helps manage wavy hair

4 out of 5 stars
ashleyrose245_4566 - 2 months ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A little bit goes a ways with this product. The mousse expands a lot when dispensing. The first time I used it, I used too much and was left with weighed down hair that had a sticky and stiff feeling to it. I experimented with the amount of product needed and found the right amount to provide the best results for my hair. When I use this mousse, I have noticably less frizz and more defined waves. No matter how much product I use, there is still a sticky/stiff feeling to my hair once it's fully dried but it's not terrible. I will say I am not a fan of the scent. Overall, it has done a good job at helping my wavy hair become more manageable.
