well maybe if we are lucky, the BGT formula (or one of the other ones he doesn't have out yet) will be more similar to this one? Maybe?

I've never used the VTS as a hair spray, but I do love using it for volume I use the VTS mixed with SC and a few drops of oil as part of my leave-in products, after I cleanse my hair. I use between 4 - 6 spritzes and I do find it a little drying when I don't add a few drops of oil to it, but my hair craves moisture, so others may not share this issue.

I also use the VTS on the roots on the crown of my head on days that I don't cleanse, to give me extra lift there. I spritz the VTS onto my finger tips (normally about 2 or 3 spritzes) and then rub it into my roots after I've dampened my hair with RTM. I then leave my hair to air dry as normal. I find that it gives me just the right amount of volume, without turning my hair into 'big hair' (which doesn't suit me at all!).

I've only used the SAM VTS (this stuff lasts forever! lol) and I haven't used the mousse yet, so I can't say how it is when used with the mousse, but I hope this helps

I've noticed a big difference between GR and Q VTS, but I had Q LAV VTS and found it really drying. I like the GR SAM VTS much better--doesn't dry my hair at all. Maybe some formulas are more drying than others? Especially since LAV CC tends to be drying for a lot of people.
