Herbal Essences Totally Twisted Curl Boosting Hair Mousse 6.8 Oz (Pack of 3)

Product Information

Over the last couple of months I’ve been trying out countless other mousses to compare and try to find a like-for-like replacement. But there’s only so many times a week I can wash my hair, and I’ve got almost 20 different mousses to try, so it’s taking some time. I’m sorry it took me so long to get this post out amidst all the panic. Testing takes time, and I didn’t want to publish anything until I had an alternative mousse to recommend for you. I’m absolutely delighted that the one I found is affordable AND my 20% discount code CURLMAVEN works on it at LOOKFANTASTIC! Longevity– if I use it consistently, washday after washday, will it dry my hair out, weigh it down, cause any scalp issues etc? Does it still look good on day 2 and 3, as it did on washday?

Results– are my results the same as they are when I use Pantene Defined Curls Mousse? Are they as defining and long-lasting? Does it give the same hold? Some images in this post are from Pantene Defined Curls Mousse, other images are from the new mousse I’ve discovered that is the best like-for-like replacement. Can you tell the difference? So I thought, let’s test together! If you’ve tried mousses that have or haven’t worked for you, share your results and recommendations in the comments on this post, so we can all figure this out together.

Mousse is the holy grail for curls. Forget the drying and crunchy formulas of yesteryear, a well-formulated mousse will give you the smooth, soft, defined, and full curls of your dreams. If you haven’t tried mousse to enhance your curls, you don’t know what you’re missing. Read on to find out how to get your best curls with a little help from your new favorite product. Why curls love hair mousse For naturally wavy or looser curls (2a-3a), a mousse with a stronger hold should be used to coax your curls tighter and create a firmer pattern. This will support and enhance your natural pattern. Mousse adds volume to your hair, creating fuller, more luscious curls. The aerated foam formulas create space between your strands, making your mane look even bigger.Another botanical-filled product, Cloud is a lightweight formula that delivers body and manageability to all hair types. Volume and texure come from natural corn starch, tilia tomentosa bud extract, and sugar cane extract, while sweet almond, linseed, olive leaf and arnica extracts detangle, protect against heat, enhance shine, and help prevent frizz. Alicia Bailey is a hair texture specialist as well as the global education manager at Design Essentials. If you have fine or thin curls, live in an environment where your curls tend to go limp, or like the combination of a volume boost, shaping, and softening properties, curl mousses may be for you. Meanwhile, curl gels typically offer stronger definition and hold with less volume and conditioning and curl creams usually provide more hydration with less hold and fullness. Hair porosity is the term used to describe how well your hair absorbs or repels moisture. So, first things first: Take the hair porosity quiz because it's the key to finding the right mousse. Done? Cool. Now listen up: "Low porosity hair needs moisture, and if it is prepped properly with moisturizing conditioning masks prior to applying a styler like mousse, the hair will be very receptive," says texture specialist Alicia Bailey. "The hair will appear moisturized and defined with long-lasting curls as a result." But I thought it would be helpful to share with you the criteria I’m looking at when testing and comparing these new mousses to the Pantene Defined Curls Mousse. Because it’s not all about the ingredients or results.
