I was using the Aussie Catch a wave for a while, it's sort of a cross between a light moouse and leave-in conditioner. I absolutely LOOVEEE Phomollient, it's so good. I love all aveda stuff. The smell is amazing, I'll be singing praises for aveda.

Phomollient adds a nice texts to my fine hair without any real weight or effort. It keeps my hair from looking limp if I don't blow dry and it is just enough texture to let me blow dry with a round brush to curl the ends under. It's a subtle effect, but just right for everyday.

HG product for sure. Just a small amount and your hair smells amazing and has a nice lift all around. Usually, i put this in my hair when it's wet, and let it dry naturally, and i find that i have nice volumous waves and my hair feels bouncier and like there is not product in it at all. Love this, and will buy again for sure.

I've used this foam on and off for years now (I switch products alot), and typically mix it with one of their gels (Confixor) to give it more hold. I have medium thick, wavy short hair and by itself it doesn't really do much to hold all of that hair. Today my stylist used it by itself and then followed it with the texturizing cream - that gave a soft effect. In the summer, this wouldn't work for me due to the humidity. I do like the fact that it is not sticky or weights my hair down and that you buy refills versus an entire new container.

I have been using this for four years now. My hair is fine and soft and most products weigh it down. Not this. It is light, yet adds volume, helps style it more easily and my hair doesn't feel dry. I use the phomollient almost daily, take it with me when I travel. Truly a product I can't do without.

Amazing. This product is by far the best styling foam I have ever used. It has a lovely clean, herbaceous scent to it. The formula is basically weightless once worked into hair -- I have very fine, thin hair, and I always have trouble with things weighing it down. Not so, phomollient!
Gives great body to hair with a blow dryer, but works just as well to combat frizz when worked into damp hair for me. I love this product. It is a bit expensive, but I feel it is completely worth it. Will buy again and again.

Seriously, this stuff is amazing. I use w/ the Aveda Curl Enhancer cream. The combination is my favorite hair products, and I've tried so many of them! Love that it's refillable, too. Very, very light. Does not weigh down thin hair.

LOVE this stuff! I have long, thick, curly hair and this is my HG product for it. I have tried SO many mousses, gels, creams, etc. to try to get rid of frizz and make my curls defined, without that crunchy feel, and this stuff works the best out of everything I have tried. I just put in a few pumps, let my hair air dry, and my curls are defined, and are soft to the touch. Sometimes I put in 1 or 2 more pumps after my hair is dry or partially dry and it helps tame the frizz even better. Will definitely repurchase again and again.

I wasn't sure about mousse, as I'd been told for many years that my hair didn't need it. I went on a limb and tried it after my stylist recommended it.
I like that it adds a teeny bit of volume to my medium, naturally curly, thick hair. It also helps keep it shiny and under control when I blowdry my hair straight, or just put it up in a bun, let it dry and wear it down later.
I've definitely stopped thinking that mousse is something for only curly hair.

I have fine curly/wavy hair and use this with mixed with Smooth Infusion Style-Prep Smoother (1 pump of style prep smoother, 2 pumps of phomollient for shoulder length hair) and I always have a good hair day with this combination.
I used the Be Curly Curl Enhancing Lotion for years but after using the phomollient and smoother, I now notice that the curl enhancing lotion weighs down my curls. I'm on my second bottle of phomollient and will buy it again.

I need to stop wasting money on Aveda products. This mousse does nothing for my fine hair. In fact, it seems to make it more limp and a little frizzier. I was expecting volume and manageability, and as it turns out my hair is harder to work with after using this.
My $4 Tresemme mousse does a much better job.

I have very fine,thin hair but I've always hated product -- the feel of anything like "hairspray". My stylist convinced me to try this and I'm a total convert. My hair looks much fuller but it doesn't feel "fake" brittle or sticky. I'm so dependent on this product now that if I run out while I'm travelling I find an Aveda salon or store to get a refill. And it is a refill, you save a bit over the pump bottle the original purchase comes in. This product is definitely a winner.

This is a great everyday styling product. It adds weightless shine just like Aveda says. The smell is nice and light as well. Three pumps is all you need for a little volume. I definitely notice a difference when I don't use the Phomollient. Hair seems lifeless and flat.

This is the best volumizer I've ever used. Mousse leaves my hair sticky--as it's very fine and has no body. The phomollient lifts my hair without stickiness. It is awesome I love it and use it every day!

I've been using Phomollient for about 3 years.
I have very fine hair. I apply it on my damp hair and it helps with styling. I like that it does not weigh the hair down.
It's also good for restyling throughout the day if you want to add more body.
Used alone, it's not always that good for calming frizzy pieces and fly-aways. I like to use it in conjunction with John Frieda Secret Weapon cream.
I'm not too fond of the smell. I like the packaging and how you can reuse the bottle. When I run out I will probably try other styling foams out of curiosity.

LOVE this product. From the refreshingly sweet honey scent to the very lightweight, lifting hold to the light-as-air non-crunchy, non-crusty finish, Phomollient is perfection. It makes my hair dry faster and keeps it from going flat and becoming greasy between washings. I use it on damp hair before blow drying and flat ironing, focusing on the roots, and that works best for me.

This is the ONLY product that keeps the bottom of my hair straight after I straighten it. I have a little bit longer than shoulder length hair and its naturally wavy but very thing. It does add some volume but I'm just so happy that it keeps the ends of my hair straight. The ends always get all funky on me. They will end up flipped in, out, wavy, curly etc etc. With Phomollient they will stay straight until I wash it again =)

This product gives my hair body, shine and curl but, for some reason, mid-way through the day, my hair becomes tangled and messy looking. So, for me, it's not worth the price.

Loved this for the first two weeks. My hair looked bouncier, fuller and shinier.
Then it must have built up, b/c my hair is verrrrry dry and lifeless now. Not to mention, this eventually gave me a rash around my hairline and made my head and neck itch.
I need to take a break from this product.

This product gave my fine waves a natural hold, meaning it was light. Waves are lightly defined and curls not encouraged. It's good when you want a more beachy look. Can't say it really added body like it's supposed to. And, I have to use more than the suggested 3-4 pumps.
