WEN MOUSSE

Jhincher — Sat, 07 Feb 2015 17:24:13 GMT

I bought and POM. I used six pumps, have short hear, and it suds up like shampoo on me. After my hair dried, it was heavy and my scalp itched. I had to wash it out. I have tried it three times and the same thing. Am I using too much, evidently I am doing something wrong. Love my WEN CC's!

Sorry on my iPhone - but before someone comes along and just tells you to call salon, I will answer... Yes I think you are using too much. Also you really don't put it on your scalp. It is a twist push and rake motion. So you are just raking it through the top of your head.

You are preaching to the choir with me,

Nothing holds my hard to hold a style hair and can't get any of the style product to work for me.

Try only one pump, then 2 and use up the bottle and just know your hair will not look like Joy's.

I use 6 pumps and my hair is bra length, so I'd suggest you're using too much.

Run the mousse lightly through your hair with your fingers, do not pat it down or scrub it in,(in other words, don't work it) then dry.

Best wishes,

Short hair here - I have never successfully used more than 4 pumps.

This is my all-time favorite mousse. When I got it first, I thought I was spending too much money for a styling product. Nope. I love it and it lasts a long time. Worth its price for me.

My hair is above my ears, so I will try it again in the morning using only two pumps and running it through like you suggested. I want to love it! Thanks again

My hair is mid back and I use 6-8 pumps, 8 when I want a lot of volume and curl. Definitely used too much.

I still have SHP mousse but don't really use mousse very often. Prior to Wen I never used mousse very often either. I have just never had much success using mousse. That being said, I agree with the others that you are using too much product.

Hello, Not sure if anyone has told you yet, make sure your hair is really wet when you put it in. I have shoulder length hair and Love the moose. I use 1 or 2 pumps and style cream mixed and twist into wet hair. I have curly hair so in the summer when the humidity is nuts I use two pumps other than that I use one.

I have short hair and use 5-8 pumps with no problem. My hair is heavy/curly though.

Also, you have to scrunch it into the hair.

I have tried all of them and the 613 mousse is the best of them all and will be good if your scalp is sensitive.

Yes i know I am not a wenner but the mousse is pretty decent

Re: WEN MOUSSE

VaBelle35 — Mon, 09 Feb 2015 03:04:21 GMT

Yes I'm all 613 mousse now, too. It's the best.

Love the CC (in seasonal) but HATE the mousse. I threw it out and only use a bit of the styling cream on my ends.

Thanks for the tip. I will make sure that my hair is really wet when I apply this product. This could be the reason that I have never had much success with mousse products in the past.

I also have short curly hair. I apply the Styling Cream on wet hair in shower & when I get out, I apply 3 pumps of mousse to still wet hair & scrunch it through the ends first. If hair gets too dry, I find it gets heavy, clumpy & dulls my hair....think styling cream first is key!

My hair is very short and I probably use 4-5 pumps, never had an issue

Re: WEN MOUSSE

Mine is btwn chin and shoulder length and I never use more than 3 pumps. As much as I love SHP, the mousse didn't work well for me so I'm sticking with 613. When I've used 'regular' mousse in the past, it was always applied to roots to give lift but Chaz seemed to indicate you apply most to the length of the hair and then rake leftover through roots.

Just wanted to offer another application method. hope it helps!

Why on earth would anyone waste thousands of dollars on products that do not work for them? If it's not working after one bottle, then why keep buying?
