I was hesitant to use this product the smell in the bottle was a bit off putting and I was used to more creamier products. However, I used it this morning and it works so great, volume, softness and doesn't smell awful on my hair! When I first put it in my hair, it wasn't thicker like my other products so I thought it would not do much. But as I started blow drying my hair, I noticed how soft my hair was turning and the volume! I had forgotten to add mouse to my roots as I normally do, but there was no need. It gave my thin hair (I have thin hair but a lot of it) volume and smoothed my hair really well. Even after I flat ironed it I still had the volume!
