This is a great product for elongating my 3b curls. Finding the correct amount to use is a bit tricky, though.

Firstly where im at, its everywhere but maybe its just because we are like 10 years behind every other country in the world *sigh* Ok this mousse is great for defining your curls even though it does leave some crunch. The saaddest thing though is that it didnt do anything about frizz for me..

I love this mousse. It is the first thing I ever tried in my hair and I've gotten so used to it I can't live without it! I first use Sebastian Potion 9 and then the mousse, and blow dry on low heat without disturbing the curls too much. Works great it high humidity!!

I liked this product because it defined my curls and made them manageable. I also loved the mousse applicator, it was really easy to use and did not even break after clumsy me dropped it a million times.

Decent for curl control, but watch out for the crunch factor.

My immediate reaction was "wow" with really good curl formation. But it was very, very crunchy, and once I scrunched out the crunch, the hold diminished and the wow disappeared. Also, it really was quite drying on my hair, making my hair feel "crispy" instead of soft like a gel or cream. The texture of the mousse is less creamy and more rapidly dissolving poof.

I've been using this mousse for some time now, and I recently brought it back out from my cupboard because I need more products to help my hair from my last nightmare haircut that I got. This mousse is good for the price. It's definitely not the best, but not the worst. It helps my curls form more into ringlets, however I do notice a bit of frizz, and if I don't use enough (or too much), the product makes my hair soft or too crunchy. Overall, not bad, I would continue buying it only for emergencies only.

Hmm.. I've had the can in my cupboards for about 2 years- I only use it when I am desperate. What I don't like is the consitency. When you dispense it, you know it is "airy" and not thick and rich. As soon as you clamp your hands to dispense it- it disappears. Don't like it at all.

I didn't care for the smell and I found it to be drying.

This is one of my most favorite styling products ever! It totally enhances my curls and offers great hold that really stands up in FL humidity! I've repurchased many times over.

this was awful. it made my hair crunchy, and frizzy. while it did make my curls tighter, i had horrible clumping so i ended up with a bunch of skinny little ringlets all over my head, topped with a ton of frizz. it was awful!

This is a good mousse, I think. It enhances curls and provides good hold. There was some crunch, but I was able to scrunch it out and my hair still looked ok. It worked well by itself and over gel to provide extra hold.

i'm with everyone on the poof factor once the crunch was out...I ended up jumping back in the shower and pulling out old products trying to squeeze out last drops of them to restyle my hair

left my hair feeling crunchy, frizzy and sticky--I was hoping it would work, but it didn't give me the frizz control I needed.

I loved this mousse. It worked especially well when I used a leave-in conditioner first.

I got OK curl formation, not great. Hair was a bit fluffy.
