I have very fine, skinny and short hair. Years a go, I tried the POM CC. Also tried the Lavender with the volumizing spray. Too dry and makes me it*h. I read somewhere here about the menthol may be the problem. Then I read that the Summer Honey Peach did not have menthol. I ordered it and it does in deed have menthol. Must not be as much as the POM. It doesn't make me it*h, so that's good.

My question is, my hair feels amazing and lots of body for a couple of hours. Then falls flat. Just like it's weighing my hair down.

So, I ordered the SHP mousse, styling cream and oil. Again, beautiful for a couple of hours.

What am I doing wrong? I am using 5 pumps for both cleanses. I do not put any on for a leave in.

I have been rinsing for several minutes.

I'll check back in later for any suggestions or advice.

Have you tried only doing one cleanse instead of two?

Just an FYI about the menthol - the Kids Wen does not have menthol, so if you're looking for one without you might want to try one of those!

From my understanding, the Strawberry Banana is the most moisturizing, the Watermelon is in between, and the Apple is the lightest (which may be good for your fine hair).

I'll let other more experience Wenners answer your other concerns!

Are you using the styling cream, mousse, and oil all to style your hair? If so, I'd use just one, like the mousse.

You should also try calling the number on the back of the bottle and getting help from someone on the WEN team.

Good idea ChynnaBlue, they would probably give the best advice!

No, I have not used the oil yet.

I have used both the mousse and the cream separately and then tried both together. Same thing.

I will try the number. Thanks!!

I have medium to fine hair, but a lot of it, and it has cowlicks all over the place. The right products are only half of the equation, in my experience. The right haircut that works with, not against, what your hair tends to do, is the other piece of the pie. My stylist, who has been cutting my hair for 20 years, does not start washing my hair, let alone cutting it, until he's heard how my hair has been; while I'm talking he is running his hand thru my hair to get a feel for the thickness. My stylist also watches me put product in and will say if I'm putting too much in, not rubbing the texturizing taffy in enough, ect. If you have a stylist you like, and you have an idea of when your hair starts driving you crazy ( about 4-5 weeks for me), make your next appointment as you are paying your bill- you have a better chance of getting the stylist and the date and time you want. Hope this helps.

I have fine very short hair, but as my hairdresser says, a lot of it. As much as I like WEN products I find I get a much better and longer lasting hairdo from Nick Chavez products. I use his yucca shampoo and his plump'n thick leave in conditioner. You also might want to try Andrew Lessmans Skin Hair and Nails vitamin he sells on HSN and work from the inside out.
