With 2016 coming fast on the horizon what better way to start it off than with fabulous, voluminous hair? Elaine gave me two tools of the trade to try myself – and wow I was not disappointed!
As you may know, I love having big hair. In fact, I don’t think there is really a limit with me, as I like to challenge gravity whenever I can when it comes to my tresses.
New Years Eve Voluminous Hair
Schwarzkopf Professional osis+ Session Label Plumping Lotion and Volumizing root spray mousse go hand in hand.
My first thought when setting eyes on the products was “wow, nice packaging.” Second thought – the scent! It’s not overwhelming and it’s very pleasant. My third was “time to put these to the test!”
I naturally have very thick hair that resists a lot of products (and bobby pins) when it comes to hold. On my wedding day, I think the stylist must have used at least a pack of pins (possibly more) and a few clouds of hair spray, to get my hair to stay where it was all through the ceremony and reception. What can I say, it looked great!
With the osis+ Plumping Lotion I put a small dab on my hand. A little goes a long way so I would say no more than the size of a nickel to start. I slowly put the tips of my fingers in the product and evenly dabbed it throughout the roots of my hair while lifting. I could instantly feel its hold and my hair was staying put! I like to add some at the crown of my head because that’s where I personally like to see the most volume.
For the osis+ Volumizing root spray mousse I leaned over and tipped my head upside down so that I was facing the floor. A small, egg sized amount was more than enough as I pulled at my roots gently while applying, and waiting a few seconds for it to dry. The final results were weightless and the hold is excellent!
This year I will be traveling a little for New Year’s and these products are definitely going to be in my suitcase! Now to find a dress that can compete with the hair I’m going to rock. 😉
Share with us what fabulous look YOU have plans for this NYE!
Wow, these sound like great products to try out! I have fine hair in texture, but thick hair density-wise, which in the end gets weighed down sooo easily. I’m always struggling to add volume and lift at the roots, so I will most definitely be checking out one, if not both, of these products! Thanks for your review!! (Love the look you created too!) 🙂

Fabulous!
I love reading your review for your volume hair for #NYE…my hair has a little more volume now since I am gaining “new growth” before my next relaxer touch up…I have been into control volume esp with humid warm temps here in the South! Happy New Year’s to you!

Oooh yes, humidity can be difficult to work with for sure! Happy New Year’s to you too! 🙂
This is fabulous. I’ve never used volumizing mousse because my hair is super super thick, but I know so many people who would love this product. And the fact that the packaging is pretty + smells great, total cherry on top! Thanks for sharing.
It’s a really great styling line no matter what your hair type!
Awesome post and you have such beautiful hair Joanna. I’ve never used Schwarzkopf before.. I’ll definitely need to try some out soon xo
Thanks for stopping by! She does have gorgeous hair doesn’t she?
I’m one of those lucky women with naturally voluminous hair, lol. But my colorist used to use Schwarzkopf color on my hair, and it was great. Wish their products were easier to find in the US
I actually have a lot of volume too, but sometimes it’s fun to go ALL out!
