Vaseline won't hold my hair ;(
Well, I asked my stylist to recommend a product to tame my thin, fine flyaway hair and she told me to start with the lease invasive product of all, a light mousse without any alcohol. Well, since I didn't have time to make a search for the non-alcohol product and wanted to start the experiment, I went with this since it was available at my old stand=by "The Dollar Store" (LOVE IT) Unfortunately,...read more I don't think that any mousse will work on my hair even though it is very fine. I was able to tame down some of my hair that was sticking straight up by waiting until it was dry to apply this product. I was not able, however, to do ANY styling with this product. The only other help it gave me was to help some of the fly-aways go with the other hair in the direction it wanted to go anyway. That isn't what I am looking for at all. I want something that will give me some control and help me to tame this mess down and make it go the direction I WANT IT TO GO!!! Right now I am at the mercy of seven cowlicks that direct my hair in seven different directions. HELP! One important tip that the stylist gave me is to make sure my hair is dry before I apply this product. I’m just kidding about using Vaseline, but it seems like I would need something at least that strong to give me the control I need to make these cowlicks go in a direction they don’t want to go. I really don’t want to have anything that thick or greasy on my hair, so I’m not sure that I am ready to go for the gel. At this point, I find out which way my hair wants to go each morning and work with that just using the mousse to work with the stragglers that are sticking out. If I look at it from that angle, then the mousse is really helping out at this point!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful
