Volumizing Spray Tonic, 6 Ounce

I returned it

I love this tonic. It makes my hair sooo much fuller which makes it easier to style. I like that I can use it on dry hair as well as wet hair.

I will start off with the biggest complaint: What is up with the pump?? Why is it so hard to depress? This alone can turn many people off. My daughter's and I have been using a different branded mousse that we had stocked up on during a sale recently when lo and behold the pump needs the might of 3 people to be depressed at all times!! We have broken two of the tops because of this and I now refuse to purchase this other brand. The Cristophe pump is along the same lines and will not be re-purchased again because of the pump. Now onto my hair... I have thin long hair that goes past my shoulder blades. It is thinner at the crown toward the front and sides. My hair cannot handle product well and often seems greasy or sticky after the use of certain products. I applied the Cristophe Professional Volumizing Spray Tonic to my towel-dried hair in sections that I had separated by hand. After application and cursing the pump, I blew-dry my hair rather quickly. There is a pleasant 'salon' product smell in the air and my roots appear lifted as does my hair throughout from roots to ends. One gripe for the product itself would be that my hair felt dirty. I am assuming that is the product adhering to the hair shaft so that it provides the feeling of bulk; I still did not like how my felt as if it was on the it's third day past being washed. I then decided to use my flat iron and see if my hair would still feel thick and volumized. Unfortunately my hair started to appear greasy. This is what I was afraid of. Recommend but not for all day wear and not for use with a flat iron. This product does not last all day and it left my hair feeling rather congested. I will continue to look for something better suited to my hair.

I used to buy this Cristophe Volumizing Spray at CVS but they stopped carrying it. I'm so glad that Amazon carries it -- much more convenient. This spray works great on my baby fine hair, and gives it tremendous volume. I spray it on my wet hair and after I blow dry my hair it feels fuller and has better body. The product doesn't weigh down my fine hair. I love this product.

I was very interested in trying the Cristophe Professional Volumizing Spray Tonic. I had to spray several times to get the pump working and it was very difficult to actually push down. After several uses it is still pretty difficult even. I washed my hair and then towel dried it and then sprayed this at the roots of my short hair. I then began to blow dry with a round bristle brush. I didn't notice any difference in my hair if I would have left it with no product except it had a nice smell to it.

I have very fine, very straight hair, that doesn't like to stay put unless I smother it with hair spray, essentially creating a clear coat over my hair style. So I was excited to see a spray that would claim to help volumize my hair. I have tried lots of different products on my hair. So far I have found very few that really work. This product seemed to help volumize my hair some, but it lasted only about five minutes before my hair drooped again. It is not meant to be a hair "spray" like "Aqua net", or "got2B" as you spray it on your roots only. I tried putting it on damp hair, as directed, and blow drying it gently with a medium-hot setting on the blow dryer. I held the hair straight up with a comb while drying it. This added a slight bit of lift to my hair, but not incredibly noticeable. I then tried spraying it on dry hair, at the roots (as directed.) Got slightly better results, with a little noticeable lift. Tried spraying it on dry hair, holding it up, and using the blow dryer a little, and results were about the same. Tried pairing it with mousse, and that didn't go so well. The mousse made my hair look greasy and weighed it down again, defeating the volumizing spray. I guess I'll have to stick with the expensive brand from the hair salon, darn it! but I have hair that doesn't like to hold a curl for very long. Maybe you will have better results.

I have very fine hair so I was excited to try the Cristophe Spray Tonic. I had to push the button several times for the pump to work, I can imagine this may clog in future. Once I got it going, I pumped a fine stream throughout my roots per the directions. Next I blew it dry. The results - my hair was fluffy but not as full as other products I use. One thing I really like is the no stick feel. Some volumizing products leave hair feeling sticky and tacky but with Cristophe hair feels soft and supple. I will play with it some more and see if I can get the volume it promises.

I have been using this for years and it is the best I have tried. Also helps to control your hair. I would highly recommend it.
