Styling Cream, Mousse + Gel

	Redken Elastic Works 09 Redken Elastic Works 09 gives wavy hair well-defined curls that manage to stay bouncy and soft, not crispy or crunchy. I applied it to damp hair and diffused while scrunching. Surprisingly, my waves came out as loose curls that were low on frizz, as opposed to kinky curls that were stiff or frizzy. Straight hair types can u...More Buy now: $6.00 - $12.80See more Redken products Average rating from 13 members 9
	Aveda Be Curly Curl Enhancer We curly people are special. We can't cope with humidity. We can't run into the 7-Eleven after a day at the beach and not scare the clerk. Help can be found in this mid-weight curl-defining lotion, which consolidates smaller curls into smoother, defined sections. As hair dries, a wheat protein/aloe mix contracts to hold cur...More Buy now: $73.50See more Aveda products Average rating from 76 members 9
	Frederic Fekkai Glossing Cream with Pure Olive Oil Instead of coating hair in a slick shine like the name suggests, a recommended pea-sized amount (I used two) of this olive oil-based leave-in conditioner softens, shines and moisturizes without weighing strands down. Missing from the petite tube are the smell and greasy finish associated with UVA/UVB sunscreen. The cream is...More See more Frederic Fekkai products Average rating from 180 members 8.5
	Alterna Hemp Straightening Balm This light lotion is a safe option for O.D.-ers who just can't stop at a nickel-sized dollop of straightening cream (like me). Worked through wet curls before a blow-dry, it renders hair slippery and round-brushable without an oily silicone effect; my blow-out remained nicely un-wavy all day. As for claims its hemp seed oil...More Buy now: $11.25 - $20.00See more Alterna products Average rating from 30 members 8.5
	Alberto VO5 Extreme Style Curvaceous Curls Styling Mousse This hefty can of styling mousse reads like a wakeup call to those addicted to their flat irons: "Stop fighting your curl!" Packed with polymers to increase shine and make hair lie flat, a little of this light foamy agent goes far to scrunch into hair without leaving hands sticky or curls crunchy. Although thick h...More Buy now: $2.99See more VO5 products Average rating from 47 members 8.5
	Victoria's Secret So Sexy Volumizing Mousse Hairstyling products may not be the first things that come to mind when you think of Victoria's Secret, but the So Sexy Volumizing Mousse deserves a second glance. It's easy to style with and gives flexible hold that lasts all day. Never sticky, it can be a little crunchy if you apply too much (a palm full is enough for sho...More Buy now: $7.95See more Victoria's Secret products Average rating from 36 members 8.5
	Bumble and bumble Curl Conscious Curl Creme Bumble and bumble Curl Conscious Creme is excellent at coaxing curls out of slightly wavy hair while leaving strands soft, not crunchy. Apply a generous amount all over, then scrunch or use fingers to form whatever size curls you want. Ideally you should let strands air-dry, but if you're time crunched, use a diffuser to bl...More Buy now: $15.00 - $86.89See more Bumble and bumble products Average rating from 51 members 8
	Aveda Brilliant Universal Styling Creme "Universal"? Um, only if you live in a universe full of coarse-haired people. If you do, apply this thick cream to dry hair to infuse with moisture and shine via coconut, aloe and jojoba, plus a mega dose of that classic Aveda scent (people always comment -- it's <i>that</i> sniff-tastic). For those wi...More Buy now: $17.00See more Aveda products Average rating from 27 members 8
	Goldwell Profiler Mousse Wax Cotton candy meets bubble gum in the texture of this strong-hold bamboo protein foam that just may be the oddest product under your bathroom sink. Squirt out a ball of peach foam and rub between your palms; you'll see the thread-like fibers that deliver the structure, texture and height of extreme styles. Despite the label'...More Buy now: $13.93See more Goldwell products Average rating from 6 members 8
	Alberto VO5 Extreme Style Weightless Volumizing Mousse Big hair that holds overnight -- really. Applying this fragrant mousse is both fun and awkward; mild pressure on the whipped-cream-can tip releases a puff of mousse the size of a lemon. (You'll need three of those.) Unless you spray directly on roots (beware product overload), it can be challenging to work mousse into roots...More Buy now: $2.99See more VO5 products Average rating from 13 members 8
