Hair feeling a little lackluster as of late? From the weather to damaged hair, there are a plethora of reasons why your hair might not be behaving. One of the biggest hurdles you may experience this season is a lack of volume. If you’re looking for a way to instantly energize your strands and create a thicker feel, there is one surefire trick you probably haven’t tried in years — adding mousse to your mane!

Mousse – friend or foe? 

We all remember the first time we tried mousse. Part of the fun was squirting the foamy mixture into our hands and applying it all over only to result in seriously crunchy locks. The mousse of our childhood has come a long way from what it was and has been updated for real results. 

Fuller shapes and bouncy silhouettes similar to those seen in the 80s and 90s have gained popularity and like most other trends this season, the addition of mousse to hairstyles to add thickness has been seen all over TikTok. In an effort to recreate the look, salt sprays will be swapped out in favor of mousse for a full finish. 

How To Pick a Mousse:

When picking a product, your hair type and texture as well as your ideal finished look should be taken into consideration. In addition to this, you may want to try out various products if you’re blowdrying your style or air-drying natural texture. 

For best results try Keune Style Soft Mousse or KEVIN.MURPHY BODY.BUILDER.
