COLOR WOW Xtra Large Bombshell Volumizer - New Alcohol-Free Technology for Lasting Volume and Thickness

Why did you choose this product over others?: Lots of reviews said this product was not sticky and doesn't weigh down the hair so this was the reason why I bought it. It is a bit sticky in the hands and takes a good 3-5 minutes to evaporate off. The bottle says to use 2-3 pumps on each section and apply root to tip. It looks like a lot at first but I did it anyway. After it slid off the barrel, I was upset to then feel the product in my hair and see it dried in the hair like mousse but after a few brushes, the clumped up strands separated into individual hairs and it felt like there was nothing in my hair. My hair felt clean. My hair right now: I am a victim of having flat hair no matter how many layers I get put in, products used or length hair I have. I am of Indian heritage, have fine silky glossy hair that is thinning, I am nearly 40 and have psoriasis on my scalp. Having a good hair day is difficult. I even lightened my hair to stiffen the hair structure and bought an airwrap to help and my hair still dropped. I got so fed up and now have a chin length bob haircut with small side fringes. My fringe has started to flatten as it's grown and the rest seems to clump together and weigh down. The hair at the back of my head has decided to start parting itself and flattening on my head just after a few hours of washing and hairdrying it, which is really annoying and looks silly, in my opinion. After using product: I used the airwrap (big barrel) and 2-3 pumps per section on wet-damp hair. I had about 20 sections that were going on the barrel. My hair had dramatically lifted after taking the section off the barrel, which never happens with other products, but I knew not to get too excited because my hair always drops. Got to the fringe last and it was beautiful how it came off the barrel and after running my hands through the hair a few times still held it's shape. I looked like a mushroom but I knew it would drop. After 45 mins, no surprise, my hair had dropped a little bit but still had good volume. I was still doubtful that after a planned day in the sun, it would be flat soon enough. I got through a whole day of doing things like washing dishes (which steams and ruins my hair), heat in the house, outdoor heat, a bit of sweat, karaoke, drinking, wind and my hair was still volumised when I went to bed. It had fallen a tiny bit more but was still way better than anything else I've used before and even my husband said how it had held up really well. I've woken up this morning and it is still voluminous and still feels and looks clean. I am tempted to wash my hair again today and do it again because I'm not sure how long the volume will stay and I am due to go out again in the heat. Overall I think this is a winner. I'm not sure how good this is for psoriasis but I don't care if I can look this good. The volume helps to hide the flakes. The hair on the back of my head is flat today, probably from sleeping on a pillow, but the parting is not there because I styled it better and think this product has helped the roots to point in the right direction. 3 pumps is alot but if you have lifeless hair like mine, and you are going out for something special, do it. I don't normally leave reviews this lengthy but I know there are women out there who struggle to get that volume and sometimes the salon can't even get it right. Tips -You have to work fast for your hair not to dry out, otherwise I suspect it would be sticky. -Pump directly on the roots, rub it in a bit and slide product down to the tip. -You have to overvolumise to beat the dropping of the hair. -Whatever heat appliance you use, lift the roots towards the ceiling. -Cool set each section. -Brush hair upwards to keep the direction of the lift in place

EDIT: ok so I have tried using the money mist and then this mousse as well, my hair in long and fine, I dry my hair using a round brush and then I flip my head forwards and dry the roots and no word of a lie, my hair looks and feels thicker, it’s given me volume, to make it last I use some texturising spray. I think with these products we need to try different ways and see what works, more/ less product, everyone’s hairs different. I would say try and see what works for you. Yes it’s pricy but I would definitely buy again. Sadly this does nothing for my hair, definitely have no extra volume even when also used with the base of root treatment too. Hair does look nice though but definitely no volume. Not sure I would recommend sadly.

I’ve used this over the past few days when drying my hair & it is fantastic. My hair looks & feels amazing and I’ve had several comments (even though I’m having my hair cut tomorrow). It’s a foam, but much lighter than a normal mousse. It leaves a slightly greasy residue on my hands, but that washes off easily. I just blow dry my hair as usual and wow! The results really are incredible. I don’t write many reviews on here, but this is worth it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

OVERPRICED !! Not great at all I have tried every volume mousse product on the market bought this used a few times but ditched it after that best volume mousse is PANTENE

I bought this to use alongside my Dyson Airwrap and it’s helped with styling. The mousse has an unusual texture — much lighter and less sticky than others I’ve tried, which I really liked. It doesn’t leave my hair feeling crunchy or weighed down, which is a big plus as I have very fine hair. It gives a nice bit of hold and definition, especially straight after styling. That said, the results don’t last quite as long as I expected considering how highly rated it is. Overall, it’s a solid option if you want a soft, touchable finish and don’t like the usual sticky mousses — just don’t expect ultra-strong hold.

It’s ok 🆗

I was a bit sceptical really about using this product but it is excellent and makes a big difference to my thinning hair by giving it much more volume.

This product is very good for very fine hair. Its light and non greasy. Works well with the root thickening spray and thickening pump gel for fine hair
