Applying mousse correctly involves distributing the product evenly and working it through your hair to achieve the desired lift and hold. Here's a breakdown of the application process:
-
Dispense the Mousse: Shake the can well. Dispense a small amount of mousse into your palm. Start with a golf ball-sized amount, as you can always add more.
-
Emulsify the Mousse: Rub the mousse between your hands. This helps distribute the product more evenly.
-
Apply to Roots (for Volume): If you're looking for lift, focus on applying the mousse to your roots. Massage the mousse into your scalp. This helps create volume at the base of your hair.
-
Distribute Through Mid-Lengths and Ends: After applying to the roots, work the remaining mousse down through the mid-lengths and ends of your hair. This provides hold and definition.
-
Even Distribution: Ensure the mousse is distributed evenly to avoid sticky or stiff patches.
-
Style as Desired: After applying the mousse, style your hair as desired, using heat styling tools or allowing it to air dry.
