This did NOT help with frizz and may have even caused more! Plus, it feels like it's full of chemicals and made my hair crunchy! Ick!

Yikes! I have been a faithful user of L'Oreal Studio Line Mousse for years. It's perfect for my hair. But as I grow my wavy/curly hair out I thought I needed something to enhance the curl. This spray was very drying on my hair and I agree with other comments - it definately makes your hair dry and flyaway(frizz frizz frizz) plus the alchol in it stinks. I have used this once and definately won't use again due to the drying factor. Back to the Mousse!

I love this product for scrunching my hair. My hair is very long and straight so if you don't use this my hair doesn't scrunch well. But as soon as I start to use it again my hair looks so pretty. Veyr happy I found this. Thanks to cheerleading otherwise I probably never would have thought about using this. Plus it smells good. And it isn't very expensive. Def a good buy!

I like almost everything about this product. It does not make my hair crunchy, but soft and touchable. I spray all over my damp hair, scrunch a little, and let it dry before I add some gel or mousse. I hate the smell, it makes me choke if I spray too much. I'm usually not sensitive to product scents. I also can not get this anywhere near my roots because it makes my scalp dry and itch like crazy!

I've been using this product for about a year and usually get really good results (depending on the weather). My hair is naturally curly/wavy, and when I use this, it makes it more on the wavy side (which I love). I also like the fact that my hair isn't crunchy when I use it, and it doesn't put a lot of buildup in my hair. With other products, it made my dark hair look wet/greasy and I hate that. It doesn't really do much for frizzies though (not a big problem for my hair though). I would recommend using this, but not for days with high humidity if you get a lot of frizz.

I bought this because I love to try new hair products, and it was on sale. It leaves my long wavy hair very frizzy with very little curl. On the bright side it's fairly cheap.

Background info:I have just-past-the-shoulder thick wavy/curly hair.This product made my hair frizz terribly and gave no curl definition. I also was not fond of the chemical smell.

This is a pretty good product as long as you're expecting a hair spray rathen a curl activator. I use curling mousse or gel and a shine serum and then when my hair is dry or almost dry, I spray this in and rescrunch. My hair is thick and heavy so the curls tend to droop when dry and this helps them hold their form better I think. It does nothing for flyaways and frizzies though, but the other products usually help with that. When I've used this alone, it didn't really do anything for me.

I just don't see the point of this product. It doesn't seem to condition my hair at all (and with alcohol high up on the ingredients list, maybe that's no surprise), doesn't do much to eliminate frizz, doesn't define and hold my curls either. To me this is a very do nothing product.

I really like this product. Paired with the "Springing Curls" mousse, this is the best combo I have ever used on my curly hair. Activates the curl and holds it in place without making it feel 'crunchy.' Not too fond of the smell, though, but it fades once the product is dry.

I am convinced this is nothing more than hairspray. I have very thick hair, past shoulder-length with loose waves, and this stuff did nothing to enhance curl OR reduce frizz. I don't understand how anyone got good results with this.
It was too sticky to even scrunch with, created a lot of build up, and made my hair feel like straw, with no curl or wave, but plenty of fly-aways and frizz.
What a useless product.

I like this stuff. I have straight hair that's layered and wanted to get a product where the blunt lines of my cut weren't so obvious. I didn't work for curls for me but I noticed that if I put it on damp hair at the roots, brush it through and blow dry with a round brush I have good volume without any stickiness. I can run my hands through my hair, but it's full. (usually it not)

I have used this stuff since I was about 8 or 9 years old (I'm 24 now) and have never stopped loving it! I've tried a LOT of expensive salon products for styling curly hair, and this is one of the best I've found. I just detangle my wet hair with a leave-in conditioner, then spray this in and scrunch. My curls stay intact all day and don't frizz - plus it doesn't leave sticky build up! Always a staple for me - and for the low price, it's worth a try.... ;)

My sister has sworn by this product for years. When I permed my hair last winter, I started using this & the curling mousse. Together, they work miracles.

Just so-so. Good hold, crappy "activation" factor. It's a little crunchy and fake looking I think.

I have some curls but since my hair is long and very, very, very thick... it ends up being straight with a slight bend. This product did NOTHING. Could be that it doesn't work on thick hair, but I've had better luck with hanging my head out of a car window!

This was good for "refreshing" my curls on days when circumstances conspired to prevent me from showering. Usually I will just stick my head under the faucet and apply conditioner, then comb out the tangles. Pumping Curls did not do well at holding my hair in place while it dried into smooth curls instead of frizz.
