Scrunching and mousse, ick!


Question Posted Thursday December 27 2007, 8:41 pm

When I scrunch my hair, the mousse leaves my hair looking totally gelled and very sticky/dark. I tried Aussie Sprunch spray, but it still leaves my hair looking plastered together! Do you know of any products and or tips to keeping my hair natural looking but wavy?

-Try the Matrix "Amplify" line, and use their mousse.
-Do not put the mousse in your hair when it is soaking wet.
-Wait about five minutes, and then work a 1/2 palm size amount of it into your hair, making sure to distribute evenly.
-To make the curls less "plastered" take a blow dryer on low with high heat and work with your curl until they are almost dry. Remember to encourage waves by lightly scrunching.
-Take a palm size more mouse and work it into the hair to define the waves while not weighing them down.
-Spray with their hairspray for a long lasting, non-sticky hold.

Hope I helped. Matrix is a little pricey, but totally worth it!

Try a lighter product. I use Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum. It's the best product ever & it's worth its weight in gold. There's cheaper products similar to it, if you want to spend less than $20. Garner Fructis and John Frieda both amke really goos serums. Also, use less of the product, you might just be using too much.

use less. You might be using too much. Try some spray gel. if your using mousse you should be using a VERY little bit to be honest.

I use garnier fructise (however you spell that, I'm in no mood to spell check haha..)
Curl boosting gel, I also use the aussie sprunch spray. Do you put the stuff in before or after your hair is wet? I normally put my hair in a towel, let it dry a little, and then spray it and scrunch it. Also, after I do it to mine, sometimes it gets all hard looking, but if you just use your fingers and break it up a little bit well smoosh it, and kinda I dont know exactly how to put this into words, but squish it, it looks better.

But the main tip is, wrap your hair in a towel until its somewhat damp yet, and then spray it, because have you heard of beach hair? Go to the beach and then you go in the water...come out, it dries and its all wavy, you want that but controlled right? Anywho... hope I helped, if you need anymore help, or need me to elaborate on anything drop me a line<3
