Back in the ‘80s, mousse was a vital player in my hair product lineup. It took effort and time to achieve sky-high hair, and I could always count on mousse to give my fine locks volume and fullness before a hefty dose of teasing and Aqua Net hair spray (IYKYK). By the ‘90s, as big hair fell by the wayside, so did my love affair with mousse. Styles tamed, teasing combs were retired, and I said goodbye to the products that made my hair the texture of straw.

But as the saying goes, “everything old is new again,” and mousse has been having a moment with stylists turning to the product to boost bounce and volume for celebs like Olivia Wilde before they walk the red carpet. When I received a sample of Sachajuan Ocean Mist Volume Hair Mousse, a vegan, cruelty- and paraben-free airless mousse, I decided it was time to revisit my ‘80s hair staple and see what the modern version could do for my fine strands.

Sachajuan Ocean Mist Volume Hair Mousse is designed to give hair—even finer types, like mine—soft volume and shine, along with moisturizing and conditioning benefits. The product is a lightweight, airless foam (a big difference from the heavy, Cool Whip-like texture of the mousses I used in the ‘80s) and was super easy to work through my below-the-shoulder-length hair. After a quick blow dry, my pin-straight hair was transformed with some serious “oomph.” I loved how full and voluminous, yet completely soft and natural, my hair looked—without a hint of stickiness or heaviness, to boot. And can we talk about shine? The Sachajuan mousse gave my hair a luster I usually can only get from hair oil—and the shine lasted a full two days between washes.

All these hair benefits come courtesy of the brand’s signature Ocean Silk Technology, a blend of nutrient-rich, cold-water algae extracts including Irish sea moss, which provide a natural source for boosting moisture, strength, and shine. As you might expect, the product has a fragrance reminiscent of the beach, like one of those sea breeze-inspired scented candles or soaps you find at a surf shop.

The mousse is a new addition to the brand’s volumizing Ocean Mist collection, like its shampoo and sea salt spray, that’s a hit with shoppers. One reviewer called the Sachajuan Ocean Mist Sea Salt Spray a “must-have volume essential” that’s “amazing for beachy hair vibes.” Another shopper loves the Sachajuan Ocean Mist Volume Shampoo for the pleasing fragrance and volume it provides “very fine hair.”
