I have purchased every curly hair mousse product available. And I always come back to my favorite Dove curl defining mousse. The price is amazing and it works better than much higher priced products.It has enough hold that your curls won’t get frizzy but it isn’t so hard that it makes your hair crunchy. The curls are soft and shaped and lasts all day, they don’t get droopy or flat.Using a diffuser after applying the mousse does help keep the curls longer and fuller. For more casual days, I let it air dry and it keeps the volume under control throughout the day.I love this mousse!

This is, by far, the BEST mousse I've ever used for my curly hair. I've used a lot of different mousse products over the years, all different brands, ranging from expensive to inexpensive and this is the best one I've tried. It is amazing on my frizz-prone, tight curls. It keeps my curls frizz-free and looking nice all day long. I highly recommend!

This is my second time using the mousse. It is very lightweight and effective for curly braids. The first time I got this particular mousse was for my French curls, and to the black girlies who do braids, we know how difficult it is to manage those curls and the hairstyle overall. Guess how long it lasted? 6 MONTHS! DON'T JUDGE ME. Overall, it's a nice product, and I'm giving it a 4/5 simply because it could always be better, but it does the job I need it to do.

This mousse is a great choice for those with fine, thin hair. It doesn’t weigh the hair down, which is a big plus, and it helps define waves beautifully without making them feel stiff or crunchy. It’s lightweight, easy to apply, and provides just the right amount of hold for a natural, soft finish. If you’re looking to enhance your waves or curls without adding heaviness, this is definitely worth trying!

I have bought this mousse recently and I love the texture it gives my curly hair and keeps it looks good. But it’s hard to spray the mousse. The top part always gets stuck, It sprays for few days and then it gets jammed.

Amazing! Long (well past shoulders) curly (fully natural; no perms; no color) hair that I wash, style and diffuse on average twice a week (Mondays and Fridays unless I have plans that call for "fresh" tresses or the Thursday up-do in a clip just ain't working!!). For years; my typical cocktail was L'Oreal Ever Curl Cream roots to ends (heavier on the back and ends) Suave pink can mousse (two to three handfuls heavier on the roots to crown) and CHI Magnified Volume hairspray all over (I prefer my hair crunchy and super high!) but I came across this in a magazine and figured I'd try it out. (Note: all products available on Amazon...YAY!!)First time using it I figured I'd stick 100% to my "normal" hair routine to see how using just this new mousse is and I was beyond impressed! I liked how this felt creamier and heavier than most other mousses (as a word of caution the lighter/air-er the mousse it usually means it has more alcohol in it which just dries hair out and makes it look frizzy). A total win and I'm officially a convert - snatched up two cases of it right away; couldn't afford to have it be discontinued on me!!PS...In case you're wondering; said routine is below; yes it's lengthy (hair wash to dry and styled = approx 45 minutes) however it's only being done 2 to 3 times per week...First...Wash; condition and squeeze excess water (roots to ends) out hair. DO NOT fluff, dry, flip or otherwise muss hair in anyway once conditioned! In my opinion curly hair behaves best the least you mess it up! If tangles and hair fall are an issue take a wet brush into the shower to work condition thru hair and comb out loose strands...rinse and condition again once tangle free. I also don't think the shampoo and conditioner matter as much as the styling products...just stick with anything that is marketed for dry or damaged hair.Second...Apply (liberally) L'Oreal Cream to wet hair (all of it) focusing product on what would be the "ponytail" of hair (basically the parts of your hair that you'd clear a ponytail with; the back and ends); wet brush product thru right side up and upside down. Remain upside down and towel squeeze ends (w/cream in it).Third...Come right side up apply 1 to 2 handfuls of mousse (depending on length) to damp to wet hair (all of it), focusing product on the opposite parts of hair curl cream was focused on (basically the roots, sides and crown ) flip head upside down and apply 1 to 2 handfuls of mousse (depending on length) and finger comb to distribute products thru (just once when upside down) front, back and sides. Once finished applying product towel squeeze (upside down) as much of the hair as possible to remove excess water. DO NOT fluff or muss curls with towel instead move thru sections squeezing stopping and starting at each sections (don't rough dry with a towel EVER)Fourth...IF YOU LIKE VOLUME and CRUNCH remain upside down and spray hairspray all over head focusing (when wet) on roots (for lift), sides (more lift :-D ) hairspray; and ends (to retain the spirals or ringlets)Fifth...Diffuse hair upside down on hottest setting till 90% dry. Flip head up hairspray, hairspray, hairspray (again for volume and retaining definition and diffuse upside down on cool until 95% - 98% dry. Remain upside down; scrunch & break up curls from the scalp/root; more spray (if desired); remove diffuser and upside down on medium and cool setting until completely dry). Right side up you can blow hair around without diffuser to give it a more tousled effect but once dry refrain from touching or fussing with it as long as you want it to look nice.In case you're wondering YES it is a lot of hairspray and product (I have long L O N G hair) and no it doesn't flake up - you have to use good hairspray. If you have a problem with flaking little hit your roots with a fine mist water bottle (or instead of wearing perfume on your skin put it in your hair) and that'll handle the visible ones. Any hairspray will flake up during movement in sleep or if you fuss with it but the steam from a shower will settle it.When I sleep I pull it all into a clip as high on my head as I can get/stand it and it usually lasts me (easily) three days but I often push it to four by rocking the ponytail on the third day and the pineapple top updo in a clip the 4th day. To shower I use a terry cloth lined shower cap and more often than not just the steam from the shower alone will reactive the products in your hair, reset your curls and keep them springy. When you go that long not touching, washing or brushing your hair you're bound to have a ton of hair fall (average person looses 100 - 150 hairs per day) so don't be alarmed when you're pulling clumps of it out the shower...I recommend a hair guard screen (...also available on Amazon!) as well. I typically avoid dry shampoos (unless my scalp smells from workouts and only then I use as little as possible).Good luck and I hope that helps!!!

This is my favorite mousse. I have high density super thick real long wavy 2b hair. Because of my hair being so thick and long it's heavy and easily weighed down. This mousse doesn't flatten my waves or weigh my hair down at all! It has good curl control and hold, and keeps shapeAlso this doesn't make your hair hard or sticky. So my hair is touchable. I can use a little and have a little wave or I can use more of the product and scrunch my hair with my fingers for more dramatic waves.I have tried other brands of mousse but I always keep this one.
