Tweak'd BIGwig VOLUmaker RootBoost-Rx Styler

I'm trying this Tweaked BigWig volumaker root boost.  It's a root lifter to put on dry (or wet) hair for volume.  I think this BigWig line is new to Tweaked?

 

Anyone else trying it?  If I wasn't a Wen gal, I'd try the TSV shampoo/cond set.

@San Antonio Gal  I am doing my best to refrain from purchasing any shampoo and conditioner today. I currently have three big bottles of Tweak'd shampoos and three conditioners opened and change up which one I use.  I used to do the same thing with WeN and needed my husband to install a shelf on the back wall of the shower, above the shower wall, to have a place to keep them organized.

 

Clearly I don't need more shampoo or conditioner, but the root lifter/volumizer looks interesting. I have tried the Tweak'd scalp serum before, which is also supposed to create more lift and volume, and this new product looks very similar in delivery and application. I ended up having mixed feelings about the original one. The first day was great, but on the second day my roots felt gummy and filmy.  The bottom of my hair still looked fine. It could have been user error on my part, if perhaps I applied too much.  I'm tempted to try the new root lifter, though, just in case it's been improved.  But if it's the same formula only with new scents, I may end up being disappointed again.  

PS - I am a big Tweak'd fan and don't miss WeN in the least.

You should absolutely try the shampoo/conditioner. I used to be a WEN gal too but was tired of using so much product, as in the back of my mind I kept hearing "if the product is quality you'll need to use less not more".  It took a few weeks for me to get the build up of WEN off and out, but once I did, Tweak'd lathers wonderfully and really does a very nice job. My color lasts - I can go 12 wks between colors (my outgrowth is very similar in color to my highlights).  My fav is the Amber Vanilla or Unscented. In this one I'm trying the Coconut scent. 

 

The rescue cream they include in this pkg deal is fabulous as well, best hand cream there is.

i tried a similar product, on hsn, jamam...... serum. I couldn't get the hang of it,(i'm old!) so there is a learning curve. I decided to stick with the vol. foam. easier for me.  the fragrances sound wonderful.

I didn't have any luck with that serum either. I also did not care for the conditioner as it did not detangle my hair. The fragrances do sound good.

 

For volume, I've had good results with Kenra mousse products.

I decided to give it a try too!  I ordered it in the Lemon Grass scent. I hope it works as well as they demonstrated....we shall see.

 

I also ordered the TSV.  I will have enough shampoo for probably more than a year!  LOL!  I ordered the TSV in the Amber Vanilla.

 

I happen to really like Tweak'd products and have a small bottle of shampoo & conditioner that I haven't started yet.

The pants the Tweak’d spokesman has on are ridiculous!

I like the Ouai detox shampoo and leave in conditoner. They might be a repurchase when they're gone. 

 

I never tried WEN or Tweak'd, but they have a following. One thing I don't get is why there has to be learning curve to products like WEN.  Shampoo (though some say WEN is not a shampoo) shouldn't come with so many directions. That's one reason I won't try these products.

It doesn't bother me, but Denis definitely has his own style. His pants this morning are kinda funny - khaki flood length, bib styled with the bib hanging down, a rope necklace, Last night he had a very long length of rope draped around his neck. Oh, and the hiking (ingredient hunting) boots are a must. 🤷‍♀️ 😊

 

Don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of Tweak'd and use many products, but sometimes these vendors (not only him, but others as well) will go too far in their aesthetic to drive home their schtick.

@JeanLouiseFinch  Agree with you. He has a whole "mountain man" vibe going on. I guess it is all part of his schtick. At home he probably wears dockers and button down shirts, with penny loafers.
