Question

Does it give you volume?

Ladies!
Does this give you any volume or would you need to use another product with it? And what do you feel like it does for your hair? Curl it under, make it bouncy, soft??

answer 1

Gives me some volume (and I don't have any idea how) and removes frizz that I sometimes get on the fine ends if I use another styling product and then blow dry. Make my hair really soft.

answer 2

I found that my hair was really soft and I barely needed to style it with a round brush while blow drying my hair. The results were amazing and it gave me volume as if I had just walked out of the hair salon.

I've just started using this product and I really like it. It gives a lot of volume if you use the right amount. I've skipped all of my other products. Just two pumps for me and blowdry and my hair comes out awesome-voluminous, soft, and bouncy (yes!). It gives great angles too. I also use a straightner afterwards which adds even more shine to my hair.

answer 5

It does not add any volume for me. I have thick hair, so that's helpful. But it also is very light and does not weigh my hair down.

answer 1

Yes--quite nicely! If you don't have a bob, don't use it tho...it has a tendency to "glom" your hairstrands together to make it easier to blow dry into the perfect bob. I was VERY happy with it!

Yes, the only other product I use is a shine spray or serum after I am done styling.

answer 3

Yes, I used this product in place of the styling products I usually use. It added volume (I blow dry my hair upside down at first), straightened, and made every hair fall into place.

answer 4

In my case, it has replaced the need for any other styling products and my hair is very fine. I think if I really needed to do my hair huge I would add an additional product but for every day, its all I need. Hope that helps!

answer 5

most definately..i think it would be way too heavy with both.

answer 6

No. I still needed my volumizing gel. It is more like taking the place of the styling creme, or the styling oil to help smooth hair without weight.

answer 7

Not exactly. It's sort of like applying a mousse before you blow dry, but this actually does what it says it's supposed to. It makes blow drying easier and the results last for days. You will notice that your hair maintains its style without the harshness from the alcohol that is in hair gel or the stiffness in hair spray.

Question

Is this a conditioner or post conditioner or other.

Please explain the order it is used in. Do you need to have washed your hair to use it? I'm confused as to the use of this product. The information on what it does, doesn't explain how and when it is used. Thanks

I have oily hair and have to wash it every day. After I comb it out I put this product in and then blow dry. Done!

answer 2

You wash your hair and condition it if that is your normal routine. then towel dry put hercut on and blowdry or let it air dry.

answer 3

You start off by washing your hair as you normally would, and later drying it as much as you can. Then, you take the product, massage it within your hands and apply it to your still partially damp hair. Your last step is to style your hair by blow drying it and/or flat ironing it at your taste. Your hair should feel more voluminous and seem extra shiny.

Once it was on my hair, I really couldn't detect any strong odor. The smell is undescriptive. :-)

I have no idea--but that is a fabulous question....There are no markings indicating non-animal testing on the packaging, but this will definately influence my future purchasing of the product.
