Alternatives to Consider

Overview

Bouclème Super Volumising Foam has earned its reputation as the volume solution for fine, flat curly hair. Lighter than traditional mousse yet delivering strong hold, it’s a 2024 Hair Awards Finalist for Best Volumising Product with good reason.

Key Ingredients Breakdown

  • Hyaluronic Acid - The skincare wonder ingredient that hydrates hair without adding any weight.
  • Linseed Extract - Natural film-former providing flexible hold and definition.
  • Chia Seed Extract - Strengthens whilst adding body and bounce.
  • Vegetable Protein (Pea/Rice) - Lightweight plant proteins for structure without stiffness.

What We Love

  1. Ultra-lightweight - Lighter than mousse, won’t weigh down fine hair
  2. Serious volume - “Day 3 volume on wash day” is accurate
  3. Strong hold - Defies expectations for such a light product
  4. Award-nominated - 2024 Hair Awards Finalist for Best Volumising Product
  5. Economical - 1-2 pumps is genuinely sufficient

What Could Be Better

  1. Contains protein - Not for protein-sensitive curlies
  2. Mid-range price - This is a mid-range investment
  3. May not suit all - Very coarse or thick hair may need something heavier

How to Use

On Wash Day

  1. Shake can well
  2. Dispense 1-2 pumps into palm (start small—you can always add more)
  3. Apply to wet hair, focusing on roots for volume
  4. Scrunch through lengths for definition
  5. Diffuse for maximum volume or air dry

Tips for Best Results

  • Apply to roots for lift, lengths for definition
  • Use with root clips for amplified volume
  • Can layer with gel for extra hold
  • Perfect for upside-down diffusing

The Verdict

As a mid-range product, Bouclème Super Volumising Foam isn’t the cheapest option, but its ultra-light formula and impressive volume delivery make it worth considering for fine-haired curlies. If flat roots are your nemesis and regular mousses weigh you down, this could be transformative.

Our Rating: 4.5/5
