Defines curls with a light fixation.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The curl boosting from herbal essences stands out for its practical mousse-type packaging that facilitates application. Its fixation power is medium - high, defines the curls without leaving them stiff and controls frizz. The feeling is light, does not bulk or leave heavy residues. It provides good volume from the root and maintains shape. Its consistency is foamy, easy to distribute and absorbs quickly, leaving the hair soft and with natural movement.

Easy and effortless mousse
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This mousse is so easy and effortless. To apply, I made sure my hair was wet (not dripping) and then applied a generous amount before diffusing. The trick is to shake the bottle a little before dispensing. And be warned the mousse does expand a little!

Waves Definition 💆♀️
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have naturally wavy hair but with the humidity my waves get too frizzy and uncontrollable so I usually don’t give them definition on the daily. But I have to say that I am absolutely impressed with this product not only does it smell delicious but it’s super effective. I genuinely thought that after application it wouldn’t hold up and I was proven wrong. This is becoming my new staple for my wavy hair routine. 10/10 would recommend.

Nostalgia is a hell of a mousse
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 90’s are back! Herbal essences has tapped into my nostalgia for my preteen days! The scent instantly transported me back to using it for the first time. It was light and bouncy, applying to my hair was easy. If my hair was thicker I think it would have worked better. My hair got a little crispy/crunchy at the ends.

A great everyday mousse!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Herbal Essences Curl Boosting Mousse brings out my natural curls in a nice, effortless way. The texture is very light so my hair still feels soft and not weighed down. It gives my curls definition without feeling hard or crunchy. I have noticed it helps with frizz especially in humidity! It’s a great product that makes my curls look more put together without the hard work!

I liked it! Going to try more
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, I thought this was a fun product to use! I have a light curl to my hair, so it was fun to bring out that style. I really liked the scent, it as suble but made it feel fun to wear. I will be exploring more from this line to see what works best for my hair.

Great Moussse!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Haven’t used a mousse in my hair for awhile now, but definitely recommending this one! I used it to help with a slick back and it looked really great. I also used to style my curls as well and loved the way it turned out! A plus is the smell 10/10!!

Love it
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this mousse, definitely gave my hair some volume and it holds pretty good. Very lightweight which is good dor someone with heavy curly hair. A little goes a long way especially when your hair is wet. It dries quick but still leaves it with volume and smelling good too.

From Bedhead to Bouncy is 5 minutes flat!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We don’t have time to look back at bad hair days. This is for the women on the move. Whether you homeschooling, building a business, or just living your best life, this mousse is a secret weapon it has frizz control, it holds everything in place. Apply, scrunch and let the positive momentum take over. It’s the easiest win for the morning and it’s affordable.

Soft curls & it smells good
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think this stuff sounds really good and it keeps my curls nice and defined without making my hair feel crunchy. I also feel like it helps manage the frizz which is especially important to me as somebody who lives in a humid area.

Amazing for curls!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This mousse has been my go-to for so long for defining, lasting curls! It leaves my hair not only smelling amazing, but feeling, and looking it too. It doesn’t leave my hair with that drying, crunchy feel that I hate, and overall leaves me with amazing shine. The bottle lasts me so long and I will forever repurchase it! Definitely recommend.

Great Product for Soft Curls
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the smell of this curl mousse. I have tried lots of different brands, but I love how this does not make your curls hard. This Mousse leaves my hair and curls soft and manageable. When I use this product I can go 3 days and just have to refresh the back and not my whole head. Excellent Product!!!

Herbal Essences Curl Boosting Mousse
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Light weight noticeable difference to my curls! This mousse left my hair feeling free while other mousses leave me with a crunchy sticky feeling. I feel like it’s a good staple for a slick back curly pony tail! It washed out well and I felt like my hair was left hydrating. The light scent of berry was a good touch!
