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

6 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

Hold

15 hours ago
This product is one of the best things I’ve used for curls on wash day! I love that smell isn’t too powerful but it’s just enough to get compliments on it. It doesn’t make my hair feel crunchy at all but provides enough hold to last a couple of days

Fluffy

Foams up very nicely! Didn’t collapse, stayed fluffy while applying. Helped my curls clump together and improved shine on my vibrant colors. Dried well and didn’t leave a crunchy residue.

This Garnier Fructis mousse works SO well! It smells amazing & made my curls look way more defined & poppin! The extra strong hold kept my curls in place all day without making them feel overly crunchy, & it scrunched out really nicely too. I also noticed it helped enhance the overall shape & bounce of my curls. Definitely a product I’ll be purchasing again! 💚

Great for the curls

3 days ago
Y'all this is the truth if you have curly hair! It smells so good and doesn't make your hair sticky or crunchy like other mousses and if you have sensitive skin like me it doesn't break you out. I put this in my damp hair and it instantly helped my curls pop and its so easy to use too.
