    dispenser stops working

    I purchased this wanting to give it a try but after 2 uses the mousse comes out watery and doesn't foam up like it should making it completely useless and the container is still full. I would not recommend this product for this reason. nobody wants to spend money on a product that essentially breaks after 2 uses.

    Good but worthless after a few uses

    It works great but you would genuinely be lucky for the cap to last more than 3-5 uses. I’ve now had this happen to 3 of these bottles and it just doesn’t seem to ever be fixed and the rest of the can is a waste of money since you can’t even access it

    Fave mousse for curls

    My go to mousse for curls. It doesn’t get crunchy and a little goes a long way. I have wavy hair and this works to bring out more curl in my hair. It doesn’t get frizzy either. It smells nice and not overpowering.

    I normally don't write reviews but this product missed the mark big time. Not only is it super sticky, it starts drying immediately so you can't even work it through your curls fast enough. It feels crunchy and it made my frizz worse, honestly. Terrible stuff. I still like the curl creams though.

    The only hair product I need

    I've tried a bunch of different routines and products for my wavy hair, but ultimately, I ended up just sticking with this mousse. It's literally the only product I use to make my hair wavy, soft, and shiny. I saw that some reviews complain about it making their hair crunchy– once your hair is dry, you're supposed to "scrunch out the crunch". Meaning, use your hands to squeeze your hair in an upward motion to get rid of the crunchy texture and leave your hair with a soft, wavy texture. NYM should probably include this step in the directions on the packaging; I only know this from watching YouTube videos. People have also mentioned the smell, which isn't my favorite either, but it doesn't make your hair smell weird. My partner actually compliments how my hair smells after using it. My only complaint is that the mousse comes out super fast; you have to dispense it for the shortest amount of time possible to not get too much. But I love the product so I'm still giving it 5 stars!

    I like it

    I have straight hair and I didn’t come to the conclusion it might not be for my hair type, I might try the other mousse they offer. However, this one still made my straight hair look pretty curly!! My hair was pretty dry before I did anything so I went back in with water to dampen it and when I put the product in it did make my hair a little stiff so I went back in with some hair oil and I think that helped.

    Fine for a quick one day style

    Gives a decent hold but leaves my hair feeling greasy and coated, even after breaking the cast. Does not work well for multiple day styling for my hair.

    I have used many other brands and it would make my hair flakey and would not give any volume at all. First time using this brand and I loooove it!!!
