Kristin EssHair Instant Lift Thickening Spray for Volume + Fullness on Fine Hair, Shine Renewing, Style Support, Sulfate and Paraben Free, 8.45 fl. oz.

OK, 64 year old male. Parents were Irish/Welsh (dad) and Polish (mom). Dad had thick wavy black hair, mom baby-fine blonde hair, guess which one I inherited??? Baby-fine. Over the years I've tried numerous products to get thicker, fuller hair. After 60 years I've landed on two products, which used in combination, are AMAZING! First was Duke Cannon's "News Anchor Thick Hair" shampoo 2-in1. Next towel dry, spritz in some Lisa Ess Hair Instant Lift Thickening Spray, work the product in with your fingers, your hair should now look wet. Wait 3-5 minutes to let it set, then take a paper-towel and vigoursly [paper] towel dry your hair, with the last few drying strokes going from front-to-back. You should now have a your hair sticking straight-up and slightly bent back, like you saw a ghost, now take a fine toothed comb and gently style it the way you want. I do mine like Jack Lord in "Hawaii Five-0." Kristin Ess unfortunately does not have matching shampoo or conditioner targeted at people with baby-fine hair, they got products for every other hair type but mine, but this thickening spray really does work and it's not the least bit sticky. Bonus is that the product will hold your hair in position without having to use hairspray as long as you're not going outside in which case I'd recommend a light hairspray. There also no build-up, crunchyness (is that a word?) and the smell is nice despite what some others have said. I even appreciated thier attention to detail in designing the packaging and bottling since the spary top they use delivers just the right amount in each spray, enough to wet your hair with the product without having to pump the bottle 40 times. My wife told me that if I an find another woman with money I can have a girlfriend, so Krisitn, I'm looking at you gal!! Let me know! (-;

I have very fine hair and it’s probably thinning due to age. A few squirts of this stuff does the trick. I towel dry my hair, apply about 5 squirts blow dry my hair and it feels thicker. Also lasts a couple of days, three tops. It smells good and isn’t sticky or clumpy. Best thing I’ve used on my hair in a while.

While the product provides some lift, it's primarily focused on the lower half of my hair. I was hoping for a more evenly distributed effect. The product also has a strong scent that may be overpowering for some.

A great tool for fine-haired ladies. smells great and doesn't leave you hair sticky

I bought this item plus the Kristin Ess texture spray, and use them together to get the best looking hair. It gives volume and body, but not too much; I'd call that a win. I'm not trying for 80s hair here, and this product works great on my very fine hair.

This USED to be my favorite hair product. I loved the way it gave my hair so much body and shine. The scent was absolutely wonderful. People were always asking what I used, and I happily gave them the name of the product and suggested they try it. The new formula is different. The first thing you’ll smell is alcohol (made my hair look frizzy), then a brief second of the original scent before it is gone. I will be returning the bottle. SO DISAPPOINTEDI just tried to return it and the product isn’t eligible for return.

Been on my hair for five hours and I can still smell the chemical odor. Glad I won’t be tasting wine or have a hot date this evening. Seriously, no hot dates for married me, but I would be very self conscious smelling like this! It’s kinda like a cleaning product deodorizer smell.Yes, did impart nice volume to my fine but full head of hair. Only some shine as my medium blonde hair is appearing pretty matte. I can feel the grip that was imparted but hair has lessened a bit in volume since application. Product is not sticky or heavy and I don’t know yet if it will wash out well. Did not weigh my hair down . Not nearly the shiny, full, non/frizz, soft look I get from my Boldify Root Boost, but I need a thickening spray I can plane travel with and not a mousse. So am pushing through in my search for a travel compatible fabulous thickening spray

I bought this without knowing much about it and like it. The scent is ok, not heavy and wears off quickly. It works very well for styling. Planning on buying again.
