Overview

Not a soft, touchable styler, Surface Awaken is a firm hold mousse aimed at thickening thin hair. You work the foam through damp roots and lengths before drying, and vitamins C and E sit in a sulfate and paraben free formula.

Lift and grip for thin, flat hair from a clean formula is the reason to buy. Firm hold helps volume last through the day. Directions, finish and humidity resistance are not given anywhere in the listing.

Who it's for

People with fine hair that collapses by midday will get the most out of the firm hold. Those with thick or curly hair seeking soft definition will find it stiffer than needed.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

Volume comes from polymers that coat each strand and set as hair dries, so drying with a brush or rough-drying at the roots shapes the lift. Amount matters: too much on thin hair adds weight. Firm hold slows the style from falling but can feel tacky when overused.
