WEN

[World Traveler]

I came across this and thought it was interesting and helpful for those of you who may see some of the models as having your hair type. My hair is like Sandra's hair: thin, fine, and straight.

Helpful chart.  And I know it's not the point of it, but I just wanted to say I did not recognize Taylor if her name wasn't there.  Though I haven't seen her in a while and even then it was just modeling Breezies.

@SloopJohnB   I believe I have seen Taylor with WEN for around three years; maybe longer. Many times when she is Chaz's model, he will mention he spotted her while watching QVC one day. As I recall, he approached her about being a WEN model, which requires them not being able to use any other hair brand.

@World Traveler   Ahhhh, that's interesting.  And if I'm not mistaken, I remember a similar story with the model Bonnie.  💆

Than you @World Traveler! My hair has changed in the last couple of months. I now have a cowlick that makes it hard to have my side bangs or full bangs. It also has been blah.

I thought I was using too much mousse, so I stopped it. Looking at your chart I'm using too much CC!

My hair is somewhere between Rebekah and Brooke, but shorter. I will try adjusting the CC and see how I make out. I was using 12 pumps per cleanse,  2 pumps styling cream, and about 16 pumps mousse. 

The chart you posted helped a lot!

Where did you get this?  I can't expand it and then using a 10x magnifier, I still couldn't make out any of the text.

It is called a RECIPE CARD. I was looking at  A2648311, the Spring CC's. Go down to where it says Description. You will see the Recipe Card link before you read the description of the product. It is displayed quite large, so you will have no problem reading it.

It may be available on other CC links, but that is where I spotted it.

@beach-mom    Glad it was a help to you. If you think of it, please let us know how it goes when you adjust the number of pumps.  It can take time....learning curve....to get it right. I know it did for me.

Very cool info @World Traveler . But it blows me away how many pumps of mousse. Most use around 30-40 with one using 50 pumps. I don't use WEN products anymore with the exception of the mousse. My order came with 2 bottles and I gave one to my daughter because I wasn't really liking it. I only used about 7-8 pumps and felt it made my hair too crunchy. Gosh, wouldn't 50 pumps use half the bottle?

@cjm61   I know what you mean. I thought the number of pumps was insane when I would listen to him.

When I lived in California I would go to him every other month to cut my hair, and my hair was much shorter than any of those on the chart. He would put around 20 pumps of mousse in my short hair and around 15 of the styling cream! I almost cringed when I saw him doing that to my hair; does it really need all that? But the outcome was really great! After all that was put into my hair, it was fuller and softer feeling. My hair normally is very thin, very straight, and very fine. So to see how it came out after all those pumps were put in was amazing!

Not to worry about using up the mousse contents fast if you use a lot. You are shaking the bottle first, so what comes out is expanded/foam. You still have plenty left in the bottle. His mousse duos are a good buy.

I suggest you try playing around with the number of pumps. You may find out that you don't need as much as the chart shows the models are using. On the other hand, you might find using a large amount of pumps works for you. Trial and error. Let us know what happens when you use more than you think you should.
