If volume's your goal, look no further than this gravity-defying flatness-fighter. It may be a featherlight formula, but the body it creates is serious stuff. Not in a 'pageant queen' way, though; your hair will be more 'full and touchable' than Tracy Turnblad in Hairspray.

The mousse you're going to want to call in for curls is one that'll provide plenty of hydration and hold but zero crunch. This formula features hydrating ingredients like shea butter, baobab oil, pro vitamin B5 and linseed extract. It's a game-changer for anyone with curly hair that's prone to breakage. Not only does it enhance your curls and give them a natural, bouncy look, but it also tames frizz and flyaways to create a touchable, effortless hold that lasts all day long.

This one may sound a tad bizarre, but hear us out: a dry shampoo mousse is actually perfect for styling oily hair! Crafted to mix oils without leaving residue (and while enhancing volume, texture and shine, may we add), it's a two-in-one shortcut to what'll feel and look like 'freshly washed' and freshly styled hair.

Texture is a magical, magical thing, creating the (highly appreciated) illusion of fuller, bouncier hair. And so if you're lacking it, things can look a little lifeless. Give fine hair extra oomph with this movement-building mousse; it'll give you grit, fullness, and a hit of covetably tousled texture without leaving hair feeling tacky to the touch.

A coat of gloss makes all the difference in the hair styling stakes. Shine equals health, after all! Give your hair the look of just that on the surface (while enhancing its genuine hair health below) with a hit of this cuticle-smoothing mousse. It heroes shine and strength-aiding vegan botanical caviar to leave hair looking a million bucks (while costing far, far less).

Want your waves to behave post-wash? This air-dry foam is your best bet for perfecting them sans heat. Designed to detangle and condition while adding touches of texture, shape, and body to the hair, it's a serious saviour if you want to wash and wear but still feel 'done' instead of dishevelled.
