Mousse gets overlooked by curly hair people because of what mousse used to be: alcohol, crunch and a sticky halo of frizz by lunchtime. This is a light hold styling mousse with avocado oil in it, which puts it in a different category entirely.

It foams out, spreads fast and disappears into wet hair, so you get definition without the weight a cream would add. Waves and looser curls keep their volume. The hold is soft, so nothing goes stiff and nothing flakes, and you can run a hand through the finished style without wrecking it.

8.5 oz / 248 ml. Best on 2a to 3b waves and curls, and on 4a hair when you want definition without a cast. Apply to soaking wet hair, scrunch, then diffuse or leave it to air dry.

Application tips

Two palmfuls for shoulder length hair, more for thick. Apply to hair that is still dripping, one quarter of the head at a time.

Break the foam down by raking it through, then scrunch upward until the curls clump. A gel can go over the top for extra hold. Dry it undisturbed, and keep your hands out of it while it is halfway there.

Results

Waves and looser curls get definition with none of the weight a cream adds, so the roots keep their lift and the hair still swings.

The hold is soft. Nothing goes stiff, nothing flakes, and running a hand through the finished style does not undo it. Frizz stays down and the finish looks like hair rather than product.

Composition
