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.

"Olaplex Volumizing Blow Dry Mist is one of my favorite volumizers, especially when my hair is nice and short. Olaplex is great, it's also got a built-in heat protection which is amazing. So what I really like about this is that I obviously will focus it at my roots, so my roots are not only going to be volumized, which is where I want the volume, but also the heat protection is there, and then I can focus the rest of my heat protection mist on the outer part of my hair. I have very fine hair, it tends to get oily, so I don't like having a lot of heat protection mists that are just really oily and heavy, having it deep down at my roots just kind of makes my hair look more greasy, so it's really nice to not have that. 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."

"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."
