What the gurus are saying

This product's volumizing punch splits sharply by hair type: those with fine, short hair praise the gentle root lift and lightweight texture that doesn't weigh down like mousse, plus the integrated heat protection. Others applied it to roots but noticed only subtle effects, preferring something more intense. The lightweight formula and heat-protection benefits are genuine strengths; the real question is whether the volumizing effect alone matters enough for your hair type.

"This is just a very very gentle lift, it's not heavy, it doesn't weigh the hair down like a lot of mousses can, especially if you have very very short hair. When my hair is real short, I just don't need to be using [...] a mousse or anything like that. It's really good. So if you have really fine hair and you're looking for something that's going to help protect your hair from heat and humidity and also give it that lift."

It's a NOPE for me

"I've been using the Olaplex Volumizing Blow Dry Mist and while I wish it would do a little bit more, I would much rather use that than this because it is just like, I don't know how [...] you're supposed to use this because I can't imagine this being good for thicker hair and I have very fine hair, it was just too much for me."

"I have very fine and flat hair, and despite having used a little bit of the Olaplex Volumizing Blow Dry Mist, it's still very limp."

I think you’ll like these

"It's very lightweight, but it does create a nice amount of volume. If you're someone like me who has fine hair, this is really great. It's not going to weigh your hair down or feel as heavy as a mousse. [...] I like that it's heat protection, so I don't have to worry about putting a heavier heat protectant spray by my roots because this is doing the heat protection for me. I can focus a [...] heat protection spray towards my ends instead."

I finished a bunch of stuff. Let's see if they were worth it 🥲

"I picked up the Olaplex Volumizing Blow Dry Mist and focused it in the roots, but I honestly didn't notice a huge difference in my roots. It did leave my hair feeling smooth, though another product I used may have weighed my hair down so it couldn't hold as much. I'll give it another go, but based off my first impression I feel like I've tried better and I personally look for something more intense for my hair type."
