This is for fine and medium hair.  When I had my hair cut 2 weeks ago, my stylist used this product on my hair and I was so impressed that I purchased it.  It gives volume without being sticky or stiff.  My hair is a medium Pixie cut.  I use 3 pumps and run thru damp hair with emphasis on the roots.  Then blow dry.  FYI  I got tired of the mousse that makes your hair so stiff.

Re: Need Volume in your Hair?

What is it? I could really use some help in that department, especially with this humidity.

@dex @Irish1210  @coffee drinker   @NEvans2    I am losing it today.  It is Phomollient Styling Foam by Aveda.  Adds shine & weightless volume.  $9.00 or $23.00.

Thank you!  I am always looking for a good volume product.  How does this smell?  Aveda a makes good products, but I don't like the smell of many of them.

Re: Need Volume in your Hair?

My stylist used Phomollient on my hair lasy week because I was getting a blow out/flat iron style, and we were curious as to how it would work on my curly hair (which is really quite fine although curly).  It did give me some lift, but all the weightlessness had to be offset with hair spray.  Also, my hair required a touch of their Brilliant anti-humectant oil to gain shine. My stylist could only laugh and suggest I stick with Nick's Mesquite Serum and Extreme Body Builder Spray for my home heat styling to get volume and shine.  She's styled my hair using these products just to see the results for herself, but she can't use them in her salon beause she operates under the Aveda umbrellaWoman Wink

@Trix  I had a very good experience with Phomollient but my hair is straight not curly like yours.  My Aveda salon is now able to carry another product line too.

@Katcat1 Your results concur with what my stylist has been seeing using Phomollient.  She loves it, but had been hesitant to use the product on curly haired clients.  Since we've been together for 20+ years, it was with my consent that we experimented on me to see how it might work on very dry, coarse, curly hair.  Please don't think I was knocking Phomollient, but rather only putting it out there that those with curly to kinky curly might not get the similar great results as you did.  In other new product news from Aveda they brought back an old favorite from the vault -- the Sap Moss line.  Sap Moss hydrates the heck out of my hair.
