I love this product!!
I have very fine, thin hair. This is the ONLY product that I can find that gives my hair the lift it so desperately needs!

If you haven't used it it's definitely worth it
I have naturally curly hair that is thicker but sometimes lacks volume
Anyway on to the product review, I have tried multiple types of hair mousses/gels..
this is the only one that actually works and adds volume and also my natural curls come out as well. If not for this my hair would not look as good as it does.
My favorite things about this:
It has awesome hold and longevity.. It uses lasts 2 days as I usually wash my hair every other day
I am able to have my hair be not stiff or crunchy.. that's something I don't like.. I air-dry my hair and it is always soft when it dries

useless because it no longer sprays the mousse
I bought this product one month ago and it is still more than half full but it no longer sprays the mousse. I tried to find a customer contact number to get a replacement but this website does not offer any way for someone to reach a customer care representative. Very sad. I have something that doesn't work and no way to get a replacement!!!

The best
I’ve had many hair products over the years and this one takes the cake. It smells great and works very well without irritating my scalp or leaving my hair sticky or hard.

Perfect!
I’ve used this for several years. I have hard to hold, thin, and straight hair. I’ve spent so much on expensive products. This mousse is the only one that doesn’t weigh my hair down, and it stays coiffed the whole day. I use only a ping pong ball size. It’s really the only product that doesn’t leave a lot of junk on the hair, and that actually works.

Every Bottle Is Broken
The mousse is essentially passable. It does what it says. It boosts volume and holds the shape. But every single bottle I have ever purchased from a store (many different stores) or online has had a broken nozzle. Even reviews here talk about it, but L’Oréal has done nothing to address the issue. Honestly, I’m not up for a fight every morning when I do my hair. So, until they fix this issue, I’m back on the hunt for a mousse.

Check the Nozzle
I purchased this from Walmart. The product smell is okay, not terrible. The nozzle was broken from the can when I used it the first time. I had read something about this but forgot to check before I purchased. The product on my thin, fine, straight hair did nothing to improve my TFS hair. It did not harm it either. I use other Loreal products like sulfate free shampoo and am pleased with this.

Great volume and hold!
Love this stuff! I have fine hair that tends to lie very flat and constantly fall onto my face. If I take a golf-ball size amount and brush it back through my longish pixie cut, it gets marvelous height without any blow drying and holds its basic shape up and away from my face. If I need extra hold and shape, then once my moussed hair has dried, I wet my hands and run them through it again. Awesome product. First time I used it in my hair my wife said, "Ooh, it's so fluffy!" Good compliment for a mousse.

Good Product
This is my first Loreal styling product. I put a small amount on my short, thin, fine hair and can let it dry naturally, which I prefer, or blow dry. It doesn't have a strong hold for my hair type, but it does make it look fuller.

Nozzle broke
I love the product and the price, however I dropped the bottle on the floor and the nozzle broke off. I have tried to use the product with just sitting the nozzle on top however it's quite difficult. I now have over half a bottle that's difficult to come out. I've used this and several other Loreal products.

Scent Change
I have used this product for years. I LOVED the original scent, it made my hair smell so good that I actually got compliments. This "new" barely can smell scent is awful and it also doesn't seem to boost as well as it did before. Why change a good thing???? I won't continue buying this.

I wanted to love it but I never even got the chance. As soon as I went to use it, the cap snapped broken so now I have an entire bottle of mousse I can't use. I do use plenty of other L'Oreal products that I recommend and swear by, though, from makeup to other hair care products that are fantastic.

Bring Back Boost it Air-Whiped Densifying Foam!
I see that it is being recommended as a replacement for the Boost it Air-Whipped Densifying Foam. This product is not nearly as good.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE bring the Densifying Foam back!! It is the best product I have ever used! I ran across it in a department store one time, gave it a try, and haven't used anything else since. Everyone I have recommended it to loves it as much I do. PLEASE BRING IT BACK!!!!

Too Stiff
I tried the Volume Inject Mousse because the Air-Whipper Densifying Foam is discontinued. This is what was recommended on your page in its stead. It is so stiff and heavy, I can hardly comb thru my hair without pulling after I use it. It is barely usable. I've tried using just a tiny dab on wet hair, but it doesn't do much that way. Very disappointed. I'm not sure why companies keep discontinuing the "light weight" products in favor of extra-hold, stiff products. I can't be the only user out here who has fine hair and wants a "weightless" products.

It Stinks!! They changed the formula :-(
I used to purchase this all of the time and loved it, but ,the other day, when I went to pick one up, the label had been changed. I bought it anyway, thinking that they just have a new label, but, no, this mousse it sticky & stinky!! It reminds me of that old Aqua Net hair spray!! PLEASE bring back the old formula!! I will not be purchasing again....'need to find something new.

It really gives your thin hair volume! Only stuff I use. I like this along with air whip stuff. But I see its discontinued. I'm sad. Only a few left I have in stock! I hope they bring it back. I like them together because it helps texture of my thin hair.

Can't stand the smell
Picked this up thinking it was just the densifying foam in a new bottle. The second I put it on my hair, I told my husband it smelled like being at the gas pump and getting a little gas on my hands. I checked the ingredients to see if it contained any fragrances that I know I don't like (most notably verbena) and noticed that it contains propane. That would explain the gas smell! VERY DISAPPOINTED! I hate waste, but I have no choice but to throw the rest away because the smell turns my stomach.

Overstated Product Performance
I bought the Boost It Volume Inject Mouse because of the benefits detailed on the container, however did not experience the "strong hold" or "bouncy and volumized look". I don't use conditioners or heat styling tools; only use pin curl technique and allow my hair to air dry overnight. My hair was shiny but no increased thickening texture or hold. I used the product several times, adjusting the amount of product.without success. I have shoulder length fine thin hair and need strong hold.styling products.

stylish hair with out the hard head look
I have been using this for several months now and absolutely love it. I use it on my dry hair and then after the product has dried I run a brush through it really quick. That takes away any of the hard head look typically left by hairspray and moose.

Do not discontinue this!
I have never, ever, ever found a mousse that did anything but flatten and droop my hair. This is the only mousse I have ever used that works as actually advertised! I was happily shocked and awed when I used it and it gave my thinning, aging hair lift, volume and hold. Don't ever discontinue this mousse!

At first I really loved this product it thickened and volumized my fine hair to perfection, however recently I started noticing severe buildup and flakes on my scalp. And I know it is not dandruff because the only thing I have changed in my routine is this volumizing mousse. :/ does anyone else have this problem?

I honestly couldn't be more satisfied! I've been trying so many salon products to get a touchable but voluminous look. It smells incredible and goes on your damp hair like silk. I tried it before a shorter haircut (since my hair is already super fine/ short hair looks prettier/fuller) and it made me want to keep my length cause the added volume.Probably the best product ever, the shampoo too. It has made a 180 difference in my stubborn hair and L'Oreal better not discontinue this!

This is the absolute best mousse I have ever used, including expensive salon products. It s not sticky like some mousses are. It is very lightweight feeling and gives your hair weightless volume. I get compliments every day on my hair since I started using the mousse, styling hair spray, and the Volume Filler shampoo and conditioner. These products are the best!!!
