I really like it too, I'm not sure if it gives me enough hold but I do really like it

I love Beyond the Zone Tame Your Curls Mousse. You should try it, it honestly gives me better hold than any gel I've tried. I noticed where you said you weren't sure the Biotera Gel gave you enough hold, I feel the same way, although I like it. I never thought mousse would work for me, I thought it was too light for my thick thick hair. Also, this mousse isn't crunchy or gummy in your hair. Just a thought...

Mousse actually gives you hold? I liked it because it was light, which was good for my fine hair, but I never thought that mousse could give more hold than a gel...next time I'm at Sally's I'm definitely picking some up

I was totally SHOCKED that it gave me hold, even in the wind! I always associated mousse with limp, crunchy hair. For some reason this one works, and the smell is pleasant. It also gives shine.

I just put Biotera Leave-In Conditioner in my hair at night after washing it. Then in the morning, I re-wet my hair with a spray bottle (not too much water, just enough) and put the mousse in. If there are any frizzy spots, I put some more leave-in in that area. Sometimes I put the gel or creme on my ends if they are being stubborn, but really the mousse works well on its own. I can get 2nd day hair with this mousse, which I've never gotten before. I really am shocked that I can use mousse, my hair seems to like it, and I don't have to use a ton of it, even though I have a ton of hair.

Yes it is. The cone it contains is prefaced with PPG or PEG, so they are water soluble and CG. I am all the way CG. The Tame Your Curls is the only one of their mousses that is CG as far as I know, so make sure you get that one. Regular cones build up BAD in my hair, even the a-cone, so everything I use is CG.

The GVP Conditioning Balm really is amazing. I've never used anything else like it. I like it better than Deva One Condition.

I'm also liking Cure Care Conditioner, particularly for co-wash and as a leave-in.

I love Biotera Curl Cream!

So i tried the mousse today. Its not bad. Has potential. I do have some frizz which I am not pleased with but not giving up on it just yet. I do think the scent is a wee bit strong but I am not sure if its that or the condish. Lol! Will try again tomorrow

The eyeliner was a failure. Smeared bad
