Advantages: Non-sticky, good price

Disadvantages: Not much volume, ideally need to use with another product, not long lasting results

Flat hair is a curse - I've had poker straight flat hair for pretty much my whole life, and finding a product that creates long lasting volume is a challenge. The last one I had was an Andrew Collinge mousse which has since been discontinued. So upon finishing that bottle, I went in search of a new product. The Vo5 mousse was the only one on the shelf for less that £10, so due to budgetary restrictions I opted for it. On application the mousse has a non-sticky texture and is easy to put into the hair. The immediate effects were about average, with some volume at the roots, however this soon fell. My hair did remain smooth and soft all day, and using the mousse with a volume spray helped gain more volume, and slightly longer lasting results, yet still not what I was promised on the can.

Sadly, it seems when this bottle runs out, my search for volume will continue...

Summary: Not so volumous :(
