Hair mousse and foam for volume and definition

Mousse has made a big comeback, and today's formulas are lighter, softer and far less crunchy than those of the past. A styling foam adds body and lift at the roots, helps blow-dries last longer and gives curls and waves definition without weighing them down. It is one of the best styling products for fine or flat hair, and curl-specific foams are a favourite for frizz-free, bouncy curls.

What mousse can do

• Volume: lifts fine, limp hair from the roots.
• Curl definition: shapes natural curls and waves and helps control frizz.
• Hold: light to strong hold that keeps styles in place.
• Care: many foams include conditioning or heat-protecting ingredients.

How to use mousse

1. Shake well and dispense a golf-ball-sized amount into your palm, more for long or thick hair.
2. Apply to towel-dried hair, starting at the roots for volume.
3. Comb through for even distribution, or scrunch it in for curls.
4. Blow-dry with a round brush, use a diffuser, or let hair air-dry.

Tips for curly hair

Apply foam to very wet hair, avoid touching it while it dries, and once dry, gently scrunch out any stiffness for soft, defined curls.
