OUTSTANDING! The Perfect Garnier Combo Recipe to Follow
13 years ago
I regularly use Garnier Curl Calm Down Anti Frizz Cream when I want to let my hair air dry....and it works great.
Last night I was at the store and decided to pick up the Garnier Curl Construct Mousse because I like to use mousse when I blow dry my hair with a diffuser -
This morning, I actually read the back of the anti-frizz cream bottle and it said for best results to add mousse TOO!
SOOOO, I put in a quarter-size drop of the anti-frizz cream, then a handful of the curl construct mousse, and the results ARE MORE THAN AMAZING.
I have never, ever, ever, loved my curls more! I have been complimented at work all morning!
Please try this combo - you will NOT be disappointed! Simply wonderful

The product's quality and assembly require attenti
9 months ago
This has been one of my favorite hair products until my last purchase. I am writing to express my dissatisfaction. The previous order was not up to standard, and I must report that both mousse bottles dispensed a non-foaming product. Furthermore, the nozzles detached during use, resulting in product loss from both bottles. I am currently evaluating whether to attempt a third purchase of this product or explore alternative options. 😠 🧴 💔 #HairProducts #Dissatisfaction #ProductLoss #CustomerService

Curl hair friendly?

I had really high hopes for this product! Super foamy, however I have kinky curly hair and it didn’t define my hair that much. The smell is good, but my hair was still frizzy. It also left my hands really sticky. I definitely think this is something for those with a loose curl pattern.

Soft natural curls
a month ago
I'm not a big fan of moose, but I absolutely love this. It was so soft on my curls. I'm usually a person that really tries to stay away from chemicals. But this didn't even feel like I had anything in my hair. And it made it be the same.If I had moves like it curled my hair, just if I had really strong moves without the crunchiness, and I absolutely loved that

This Garnier Fructis curl construct creation mouse is so nice! It made my hair soft, manageable and free of frizz! It smells amazing and was so easy to use. I used a handful for my long hair and used praying hands to distribute it through my wet hair. I scrunched it then air dried. My hair is shiny and so pretty!

Love this curl mousse. It is easy to use and has a great smell. It created clear curls in my hair that stayed throughout the day.

This mousse was great. It works fantastic for curly hair and really defines them. I have a kid who loves being outside and sweats so much and this mouse keeps the hair in place.

A great solution for longer, frizzy and curly hair.

For my long curly (and often unruly) hair, this foamy mousse works great! It keeps my hair in place throughout the day so I don’t have to worry about it getting too poofy. There’s no odd shine and minimal frizz. It also doesn’t make my hair feel hard or heavy which is nice. I will certainly keep using this.

This product worked pretty well with my locs. It smelled good and it didn’t take much to get it to do its job. It didn’t flake once it dried, nor did it leave any buildup. The only thing I didn’t like about it was that I wanted a little more hold from it than it offered. My curls fell fairly quickly.

Great curls

I haven’t used mousse in a long time so I didn’t know what to expect. I was genuinely surprised that my curls came out almost identical to the product I currently use which is significantly more expensive. This changes my outlook on mousse because it didn’t leave my hair hard like the one I used before. I recommend giving this a try.

Too heavy and drying for my fine hair

I really wanted to like this mousse but it somehow both dried out my hair and weighed it down. It has a pleasant smell and a thick consistency, but it doesn’t seem to hold more than one day. I’ll continue to try it out and maybe I’ll learn a good process for it.

This is a great mousse! It is very dense, so you don't need much, but it's still light and creamy enough that it doesn't weigh down my hair or make it crunchy. Naturally, as it dries, a small amount of scrunching will help if you accidentally over applied. Frizz control is great and it lasts all day.

Makes curls stiff and without definition
a month ago
I honestly did not like this product at all. I couldn't even take a picture because I ended up washing it off after diffusing my hair. It has a strong hold, but it does not define the curls. It makes them stiff and weird looking. My hair felt dry and stiff, my hair had no movement at all.
I really, really dislike it.

Garnier
HI GisselM, we are so sorry to hear this! Your hair should make you feel amazing, and we can completely understand how disappointing it was to wash this out after all your hard work diffusing. Curl Construct Creation Mousse should boost curls, tame frizz and flyaways, and deliver extra-strong, long-lasting hold and shine—without weigh-down. Curls are wonderfully unique and sometimes, high-hold formulas can over-compensate and leave curls feeling stiff or dry if they don't have a rich moisture barrier underneath. That said, you shouldn't have to struggle to get the soft, bouncy definition you want! For hair that craves extra hydration along with hold, the Flexi Hold Curls Moisturizing Gel may be a better fit.
